Rescue Network Inc

Rescue Network is committed to strengthening underserved communities by providing resources for cats and dogs, reducing animal population, and creating a network of rescue organizations that builds a bridge to safety for unwanted animals.

So far in 2022 we have spent over $160,000 on medical expenses, $15,000 on gas, and $18,000 on boarding so far this year. We NEED your help to continue our mission of saving animals.

$5 or $500 it all adds up and every cent we raise goes to our animals in rescue! We have a very generous match of $5,000 if we can hit our end goal.

Since January of 2020, we have saved 3,039 dogs and 849 cats! 

In 2022 we have had several dogs hit by car, many gunshot animals, parvo cases, ringworm, and multiple other medical cases that all received medical care. 

A little bit about us for anyone that may be new here! 

We are a 501c3 non-profit. We are all volunteers and none of us make any money doing this. We focus on helping South Dakota reservation dogs and cats but have also helped breeder releases and owner surrenders for rescue placement. We are a foster based rescue and rely on our wonderful volunteers to continue saving animals. We spay and neuter all the animals before being adopted, does thorough checks on adopters, ensures the animals are healthy before being adopted, and if for whatever reason needs emergent vet care - that animal will receive it. We will cover 100% of costs for spays and neuters as well as shots for low-income families on the reservations, no questions asked. We have never said no to a dog in need. We feel that first impressions of dogs are not always best when they are scared and feel they all deserve a chance. Every single animal sees a vet before crossing state lanes. They receive their first vaccines, flea/tick, and a health certificate.

Our main focus is animals but we also try to help the communities. We’ve participated in getting school supplies for the kids, elderly drive for essentials, and sponsoring a couple of families each Christmas on the reservation that people nominate that feel deserve it.
