N.C. Non-Profit Animal Rescue

About Us
About Our N.C. Rescue
We are proud to be the crazy dog lovers who skip out on work to transport dogs from all over the state to their excited fostersā homes; who stay up late searching shelter pages for that next āFreedom Rideā potential; who spend countless hours making rescue a reality!
Freedom Ride Rescue brings together individuals who share a love for dogs and a dream to see a no-kill state. Our foster-based network is in the Raleigh/Clayton, NC, area. We bring in dogs of all ages, sizes and breed mixes. We help to rehabilitate these animals – providing security, love, medical, and behavioral training as needed – until they can be adopted to their “fur-ever” homes.
We areĀ foster based: we have no facility and every one of our adoptable (and not quite ready to be adopted) animals are in homes where families are teaching trust, love, basic manners ā¦. preparing your future dog ready to be the best addition to your family that he can be!
As fosters, we are willing to have our heart break after we love, rehabilitate and nurse an unwanted, unloved animal until they prance away with their fur-ever person ā often never looking backĀ āĀ as they start their most lifeās wonderful chapter: the one as a cherished pet.
So join our road to making freedom rides happen! We are a wonderful, tight-knit family needing volunteers, fosters, donors – basically caring people willing to help in any way they can!

šØ FOSTER NEEDED šØThis gorgeous young Golden Retriever was adopted just last week, but is already being returned through no fault of his own. His adopters shared that he has more energy than they expected and that their home with cats isnāt the right fit for him. He appears to be a young, active boy who would thrive with a foster willing to give him structure, exercise, and a little patience as he settles in. Like many young Goldens, he just needs the right outlet for his energy and a committed home environment.
Freedom Ride Rescue covers all costs associated with his care ā we just need you to provide a safe and loving foster home.
If you can help this sweet boy decompress and get the fresh start he deserves, please email jennifer@freedom-ride.org today!
šØšØPUPPY FOSTER NEEDED!!šØšØ This sweet little girl was found with no collar and no chip. She is believed to be about 8 weeks old and we think sheās some kind of doodle. Whatever she is, sheās precious, and so sweet to boot! If you can help foster her please email jennifer@freedom-ride.org today!
Freedom Ride needs YOU!
If you`ve ever wanted to get involved, we`d love to have you! There are so many ways you can help our organization and we`d love to tell you about all of them so you can find something that fits what you have to give.
Are you the kind of person who loves talking to anyone and everyone? Do you have a talent for sales? We always need people at our events who can talk and "schmooze" with the public. Your job would be to talk up Freedom Ride and sometimes sell raffle tickets for cool prizes. If this seems like the perfect way for you to help out--apply to volunteer with us!

šØ FOSTER NEEDED šØNo one has stepped up yet for this stunning boy, and we truly canāt believe it. Meet Geno! Heās a one-year-old, 35 lb fluffy corgi mix (we think⦠but honestly heās 100% adorable and 100% perfect). Sweet, handsome, and ready for a soft place to land, Geno is just waiting for someone to give him a chance.
And yes ā his name is Geno and we are not changing that. Freedom Ride Rescue covers all costs associated with fostering. We just need you to provide a safe, loving temporary home while he waits for his forever family.

Help us get this perfect boy to safety.
April is National Heartworm Awareness Month ā¤ļøš¶
Heartworm disease is serious, but completely preventableāand unfortunately, itās also very common here in North Carolina. All it takes is a single mosquito bite to transmit heartworms, which is why keeping your dog on monthly prevention year-round is so important.
The dogs shown here are all currently heartworm positive and either receiving or about to begin treatment. The good news? Heartworm disease is treatable. The hard part? Treatment is long, restrictive, and costs our rescue about $1,000 per dog.
Weāre committed to giving every dog the care they need to heal and thriveābut prevention is always the best (and easiest) option.
š¾ Protect your own pets with monthly prevention
š¾ Help us support dogs currently in treatment
š¾ Share to spread awareness
Together, we can keep more tails wagging and fewer hearts hurting ā¤ļø
Saving one dog will not change the world, but surely for that one dog, the world will change forever.ā
