Southwest Metro Animal Rescue needs the help of a few dog lovers to be dog i coordinators for the rescue. As a coordinator, you would help bring loving dogs from homelessness, neglect, and bad situations into foster homes. Then you will help find them forever homes. But don't worry - you have a team to work with to help with the process.
Here is a high level summary of what you would be doing but also have your team help with doing:
- Return calls and inquires regarding surrenders.
- Screen surrenders to make sure the dog is a good fit for the rescue
- Find a foster home to place the dog into the rescue.
- Set up intake appointment with participating veterinarians and set up transporters for vet appointments if necessary.
- Be the contact for veterinarians and foster homes during intake process.
- Be at monthly adoption meetings to meet potential adopters.
- Do adoption paperwork
Our goal is to have a team of 2-3 people do this job so we have a team that can work together and keep the time requirements to a minimum. The more the merrier!
If you are interested, please call us at 952-368-PAWS (7297) or email us at swmetroanimalrescue@hotmail.com

Mission Statement
Southwest Metro Animal Rescue and Adoption Society is a non-profit organization committed to the rescue of abandoned, abused and stray domestic animals.
Description
We believe the animal-human bond is strengthened through education of the public on the humane treatment of animals, pet population control and support for animal protection laws.
We are an all-volunteer non-profit organization. We do not have any paid staff and receive no government funding. Our founding members have over 35 years combined experience in the animal rescue field. We have established federal tax-exempt status as a 501 (c) (3) charitable organization.
Southwest Metro Animal Rescue does not operate a shelter building, and is a volunteer foster home-based organization that hosts regular scheduled monthly Pet Adoption Days. Our procedure is to evaluate the animal, provide necessary medical care (including spay/neuter), place in a caring foster home, and finally find a suitable forever home for each pet. We rely on donations of food and supplies to care for the pets. We maintain a no-kill policy except in cases when euthanasia is deemed the only viable, reasonable and humane option.
