Woof! Meow! One thing before you go…

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?

Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!

Born Free Pet Shelter is a No Kill 501(c)(3) Non-Profit RESCUE organization that has been helping homeless dogs since 1981. Born Free is a rescue that is dedicated to providing our dogs with a happy and healthy quality of life while they await their opportunity to a permanent and loving home. In some cases, Born Free is home and serves as a sanctuary to those dogs that do not have the fortune of getting adopted. We are not funded by the government and for this reason our vet and food bills are very high. We depend largely on monetary contributions from individuals who believe in our mission. If you believe in our rescue and would like to help us in carrying out our commitment, please DONATE. Every dollar counts.

Located on a 5-acre refuge in the Redlands of South Florida, Born Free rescues dogs in distress and offers them the chance to lead happy and healthy lives until they are adopted.

We currently house over 150 dogs, ranging in age from 6 months to elderly. With the help of generous donations and the tireless efforts of our volunteers, we provide the love, care, and medical attention that they need.

Some of our dogs will live out their days at the shelter, but we have so many that would make wonderful companions if given the chance.
