There are specialty organizations (rescues) in our state that help specific breeds or types of animals in need by providing temporary shelter, and evaluating potential homes. Although some organizations are based in surrounding states, they have volunteers and foster animals within Nebraska’s borders. Each rescue or shelter possesses a valid Nebraska license. Below is a link to the Nebraska Rescue Council’s list of organizations.
