About Us

 

 

*As of 6/1/09 we will not be taking in anynew dogs. We will be happy to post your dog as a private adoption, or on behalf of your rescue/shelter however.

email presarescue@yahoo.com with a picture and info about the dog.

 Presa Rescue is a non-profit nationally based group of volunteers, mainly presa breeders and owners.  We are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of dogs that need new  homes through no fault of their own. We primarily assist those dogs that end up in shelters, but we will consider owner surrender situations on a case by case basis.

Although non-profit, we are not 501(3)c certified.

Unfortunately, due to the amount of ground we are trying to cover (the continental USA and Canada) we do not always have fosters to take every dog in need.  We are ALWAYS looking for more help...

We are limited to placing dogs in the USA and SOMETIMES Canada only right now.

Please see the "about" page for more information.
