TCPR

We rescue abandoned, homeless, abused, neglected, and otherwise unwanted dogs with the ultimate goal of finding each one a stable and loving forever home. Many of these animals would otherwise be euthanized if they were not rescued. We are only able to rescue animals for which we have an available foster home.

Fostering entails opening your home and heart to a companion animal in-need. There is no cost to you other than your time. Twin Cities Pet Rescue provides all the supplies, support, and vetting for our foster animals. We ask you to provide a structured, safe, and loving home for the foster animal until a "furever" home is found.

As a foster home, you also provide:

  • Transportation for your foster animal to vet appointments, adoption events, or meet and greets
  • Training and socializing for your foster animal
  • Information and updates to Twin Cities Pet Rescue about your foster animal

About Twin Cities Pet Rescue

Location:

PO Box 28245, St. Paul, MN 55128, US

Mission Statement

Our mission is to rescue abandoned, homeless, abused, neglected, and otherwise unwanted dogs, cats and small companion animals, with the ultimate goal of finding each one a stable and loving forever home. We specialize in providing care for animals with medical needs and behavioral issues and transitioning them thoughtfully and safely into adoptive homes.

Description

Twin Cities Pet Rescue (TCPR) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal rescue that operates almost entirely by volunteer efforts. We rescue dogs, cats, and small companion animals and place them in foster homes until they are adopted by a forever family. TCPR focuses on rescuing animals in critical need and those at risk of being euthanized. Many of our foster animals have or had special medical needs.

Once rescued, all animals stay in foster homes, receive optimal veterinary care, high-quality nutrition, and basic training in preparation for adoption. We have rescued and placed more than 2,000 animals with loving forever families since our founding in 2009.

We also provide community animal services including nail trim and microchip clinics, educational events and pet-friendly activity events. Our work cannot continue without ongoing help from amazing volunteers. Please consider joining the TCPR team today and help save the lives of companion animals one life at a time!
