We rescue Mutts who need us most

 

Mutt Scouts is not a breed specific rescue. We’re dedicated to saving every dog we can, regardless of age, breed, medical or behavioral needs. We are transparent about our mutt’s needs with fosters and potential adopters to ensure that once a dog becomes a part of our organization, they will know nothing but love and safety for the rest of their lives.

 
 

Meet our Mutts

We believe every Mutt deserves a second chance. Mutt Scouts is dedicated to saving all dogs regardless of size, age, breed, or needs. We strive to find a safe and loving home for every Mutt we rescue.

SUCCESS STORIES

Many of our Mutts come to us from rough beginnings, but now they are living their best lives with their incredible families. We strive to help you and your Mutt find each other. Read about our Mutt Scouts Alumni and their wonderful adopters.
