Welcome to Halfway There Rescue! 

Here at Halfway There Rescue we believe that second hand animals, make first class pets! We are a Charlotte area pet rescue organization run by a group of dedicated volunteers. We save dogs and cats from over-crowded shelters and help find them loving, happy homes through temporary foster placements and transportation to rescues in others states. Adoption is the loving option; please give one of our available pets a forever home today!

Our Mission

Our mission is to rescue, foster, transport, and find homes for unwanted, abandoned, and abused dogs in the Carolinas.  Halfway There Rescue’s goal is to pull at risk pets from over-crowded shelters in North and South Carolina, place them in temporary foster homes and ultimately find them permanent, loving homes. We also offer a community outreach program that provides free veterinary care, including spay/neuter, for those who cannot afford services for their pets. ​

Service Area 

Halfway There Rescue covers North and South Carolina, but we primarily pull puppies and dogs from shelters in Mecklenburg, York, Lancaster, and Chester counties. Halfway There Rescue works directly with shelters and animal control centers in these areas to pull dogs and cats before they are euthanized. Due to the high number of animals in high kill shelters in our area, Halfway There is not able to take owner surrenders at this time.
