Morgan McDonald, who's been helping us on the marketing front with social media posts for the last three years, has decided to step down from her role. At the current time, we have no one "officially" charged with marketing. Unofficially, Kelly Erickson and myself have been posting to social media and Jailene Lopez has helped in the past as well. If you know anyone proficient in any social media platforms that has an interest in supporting us here please let us know.

We wanted to share just a few of the positive comments we've receive from some recent adopters: | |
|
"We love this organization! This is our second adoption from Rescue Crew and we couldn't be happier! "
"Rescue Crews have been awesome they help us find a perfect match for us."
"I've had a great experience with the Rescue Crew. I can tell that the Rescue Crew's number one priority is getting animals into good homes."
"Love The Rescue Crew! Foster was very accommodating and even traveled to our home for our initial meeting. She provided us with useful & general information about our new pet."
"This organization is an amazing! They had a clear foster agreement process and clear support throughout. We fostered and then adopted a sweet puppy that needed a home."
"Was an all around great and smooth experience! 10/10 loved my baby’s foster parents they were great to work with. They kept everything moving very promptly while still staying professional and keeping the pets best interests in mind. Would definitely recommend or use them again !!"

Set Your Foster Dog up for Success.
The big secret to many foster and adoptive homes’ success with a new dog that came from unknown or even not so good homes is often what we refer to as the “Two-Week Shutdown.”
What does this mean? Essentially, it means giving the new dog time to adjust to you and our family and the resident animals in the new environment. Essentially, it's a decompression period.

Did You Know? 🐾
The Rescue Crew has an adoption program to help improve the adoption options for dogs and cats that have been in foster care for an extended period of time - typically six or more months.
Sometimes there isn’t any rhyme or reason as to why some animals get adopted more quickly than others. Even amazing pets can sometimes get overlooked. Pets who have been awaiting adoption longer than others and, in an effort to send them more quickly to the forever home they deserve, their adoption fee is often reduced.
Special adoption fees are $199 for dogs and $99 for cats, not including tax.
