Mission
Rebound Hounds Rescue believes that there’s a great
home for every dog. How to make that happen is the
real work of rescue. We’re committed to bringing
dogs and guardians together who are right for each
other. We do it by knowing the dog, and knowing the
prospective guardian.
First, we know the dogs we place. We seek out
temperament evaluations from ACC staff and ACC
volunteers in the attempt to pair dogs with the right
home. It’s not perfect, but it goes a long way toward
getting a feel for who the dog should go to.
Next, we learn about the adopters. We look at
lifestyle, energy level, experience, tolerances. It’s
communicating about expectations and commitment,
not just for the next few weeks when the dog comes
into their life, but for life.
Last, we stay in touch. After the initial home visit,
we’re available to offer help, support and advice. We
welcome knowing how everyone is settling in.
Pictures are great, an occasional email. Our job is to
support the owner and dog throughout the process.
Shelter dogs are a unique challenge because they
have pasts we often can’t know. What we do know is
that once matched with the right guardian — with
time, respect and patience — a shelter dog offers
unparalleled love and gratitude every day, in every
way, to the person who saved them. It is unlike any
other relationship on earth.
We are a recognized 501c3 NON PROFIT
ORGANIZATION. All donations are tax deductible.
