Big Dogs Animal Rescue was officially founded in 2002 as an all-breed animal rescue. Our volunteers have been involved in rescuing unwanted and neglected animals for over 15 years. They have worked with other rescue organizations, and local animal shelters. Big Dogs ALWAYS spays/neuters any animal available for adoption if that animal can be altered. If the animal cannot be altered due to a health condition or such, we will require an additional deposit in the amount of the adoption fee which will be refunded when proof of altering is shown to us. All animals are Up-to-Date on vaccines and fully vetted before placement. We will NOT declaw cats. The only time a declawed cat will be available for adoption through Big Dogs is if the cat is surrendered to us already declawed.
