The BoneYard Animal Rescue

We're a 501c3, NFP Organization, Licensed by the Dept. of Agriculture. All Donations Tax Deductible.


The Bone Yard Animal Rescue is a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing homeless, abused and abandoned animals facing euthanasia in high-kill shelters and animal control facilities. Working with committed volunteers, foster homes, local veterinarians and trainers we are able to provide loving temporary care, and find them well-matched, carefully screened forever homes.

The Bone Yard Animal Rescue was founded in February of 2014 by a group of dedicated volunteers, who aim to 'Make A Difference' for homeless, abused and abandoned animals. We will tirelessly strive to rescue, foster, and do everything possible, to improve the lives of those who cannot speak for themselves. We are fully committed to finding a well-matched fur-ever home, so they can feel safe and loved, the way they deserve to be.

We will also serve as a resource to our community, and all pet owners by providing education and information on responsible pet ownership, including the importance of spay/neuter, positive behavior training and good nutrition.
