continue to save homeless animals.
All adoptable pets are featured on our website site at
www.joyfulrescues.org and on the Joyful Rescues Facebook page at
https://www.facebook.com/joyfulrescues. An online adoption application is
available which all adopters (must be 25 years of age) must complete to be
considered.
Joyful Rescues is in its sixteen years of operation and rehomes
dogs and cats of all ages from regional shelters, high-kill shelters in the
southern United States, former “puppy mill dogs”, as well as dogs and cats who
are surrendered to the organization from former owners who can no longer care
for them. A tireless group of volunteers and rescue staff work to match dogs
and cats with their “furever families,” promote spay/neuter programs, attend
community events to share our vision and mission and help reduce euthanasia
rates in high-kill shelters by transporting adoptable animals to Joyful
Rescues.
Joyful Rescues is a 501c3 not-for-profit organization
accredited by the BBB (Better Business Bureau) and matches adoptable dogs and
cats with loving homes.

(Dog) “Seymour” is a 9-year-old neutered Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie Mixed and weighs about 9 lbs. He came to us from a "puppy mill" who was looking to find homes to 29 dogs who had apparently "served" their time... He is learning to love life for a change! Seymour enjoys exploring outside and taking walks. He is good on leash & car rides. He is currently learning how to be house trained. Although he has limited vision, he finds his way easily around the house and enjoys family snuggle time along with the other dogs in his foster home. Seymour is good with cats and would do best with older children. Seymour is currently available for adoption at Joyful Rescues. www.joyfulrescues.org.
(Cat) “Nellie” is a 9-year-old dilute calico spayed female. Her owner became ill and she was brought to Joyful Rescues. Nellie is a pure “Love Bug”. She is super sweet and adores belly rubs! She is doing very well in her current foster home with the resident cats and the Chihuahuas. She loves to play, and her favorite toy is the “Cat Dancer”. A cat can live between 12-18+ years if cared for properly. Nellie is currently available for adoption at Joyful Rescues. www.joyfulrescues.org.
