Little Mutts Rescue Society is a registered non-profit society and is located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and has rescued and adopted out over 675 dogs! The rescue was started in May 2009, and is aimed at saving small breed dogs specifically under 30 lbs. Even though we would love to save dogs of all sizes, our rescue was formally started to meet the adoption demand in Calgary and area of smaller breed dogs, so as to provide dog adopters an alternative from having to go to a pet store, backyard breeder or puppy mill. We mainly deal with over-populated and high-kill shelters in the USA and Mexico as there are so many small breed dogs in these shelters that have to be put to sleep everyday. We don't feel that a dogs' location should discriminate whether it should be saved, when there are so many loving homes available here to take them in. Although we can't save them all, we know we can make a difference for the few that we are able to save.

Little Mutts Rescue Society is 100% volunteer based and non-profit. All funds go toward saving more dogs in need. We are non-shelter based and are a no-kill organization - all our dogs are kept in private foster homes where they can be rehabilitated and loved until the right home comes along. The majority of our dogs were next in line to be euthanized due to over-crowded shelters and were brought here to Calgary to give them a second chance.
