Welcome to Champlain Valley Canine Rescue

Started in 2008 by Tammy Hall, Champlain Valley Canine Rescue strives to rescue and save a wide range of animals. Several times a year, we rescue dogs from the Ohio puppy mills. These dogs have been used for breeding and are now grateful to have vet care and be placed in loving homes. Throughout the year, we rescue dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens from the south both directly from high-kill shelters and from rescue partners in the south who pull animals from shelters and foster them until they can find a rescue partner in the north. We also do what we can locally to help animals in need find homes if their owners can no longer care for them.

We are a completely volunteer-based organization and are we grateful for our many foster homes as well as for the volunteers who help with transports and grooming.
