The Mutt Scouts Mission

We here at The Mutt Scouts believe in second chances…and in many cases third and fourth as well. It has been said that ‘every dog has its day’ and while that is a hope what we do know is that every dog (and cat) has its own story.

Where many rescue groups are breed specific, we are not. Where you will find others that only will accept cute and immediately place-able dogs, you will not find us. To be sure, we have our share of adorable dogs and plenitude of puppies, but we do not shy away from the extra special animal that may take more nurturing, more care and often more time before they are ready to join their new families.

A large sector of society wants a particular breed of pet and will go to extra lengths and top dollar to achieve that. We are most proud of advocating and supporting the idea of owning a ‘mix’ dog or “mutt” as an alternative to a pure bred or ’store bought canine. Mixed dogs generally have a healthier constitution than purebreds and certainly are not lacking in their beauty nor their loyalty. And as a frighteningly large number of people still have not accepted the words “spay” or “neuter” into their vocabularies, there are a large number of unwanted, abandoned and neglected mixed dogs seeking the love and trust they deserve. So, daily, we watch and we listen. First to the dogs that we are able to save…and then to their individual stories.

We work relentlessly on behalf of animals that do not have a voice in society. Everyone has fond story of a dog they once knew in their lives…what we do happily, is work to find and match the right human with the right companion so that a whole new generation of stories and memories can be created.

Thank you. Call The Mutt Scouts… Save A Friend.
