The Buddy Rescue Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable all-volunteer organization established to provide for the rescue, support, fostering and placement of abandoned or special needs animals in need of a home, basic care and/or medical treatment.

A popular belief about our shelter system is that those adorable, tiny kittens or stray unowned cats will be safe, taken care of and adopted out if taken to an animal shelter.. and unfortunately, that is not the case. In fact, most kittens under 8 weeks of age are euthanized upon intake or on the same day and the shelters do not have the ability to care for the amount of animals that end up in shelters. The Little Lion Foundation is trying to change that!

Buster Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing and re-homing pit bulls and bully breed mixes. Through decades of cruelty, unethical breeding and irresponsible ownership, a once beloved family dog has now found itself the victim of discrimination and abuse, and a source of misdirected public fear.   We believe that every dog is an individual, deserving of a loving home, proper care, and a fair shake, regardless of breed. We hope our efforts lead to a better educated and more compassionate public.   The Buster Foundation is an ALL VOLUNTEER organization, and does not operate a shelter. All Buster dogs are cared for in foster homes by volunteers who commit their homes and free time to rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption efforts. We make every effort to have a volunteer respond to inquiries and questions within 72 hours. Please be patient and do try again to reach us if you have not received a response within this time frame.

We work toward establishment of low cost spay neuter programs and provide educational programs to young peoples’ groups and classrooms teaching humane attitudes toward all animals and responsible pet guardianship.
