FCR was founded as Pet Partners Network in 2008 by the late Judy Cary. We started as a foster-based rescue with Tractor Supply in Lenoir as our primary adoption venue from 2009-2020. In 2014 we opened our resale store, Waggin’ Tail Resale and in 2018 we relocated to our current location, upscaled our merchandise, and expanded our store name to Waggin’ Tail Resale & Marketplace. All proceeds from our store benefit our continued rescue efforts. In 2020 we broke ground on our shelter build-out, and on January 1, 2022, we opened The Bunch Anderson Life-Saving Shelter.
Our goal is to find forever, loving homes for the homeless dogs in our community while working to reduce the dog overpopulation through rehoming and spay/neuter efforts until euthanasia rates at our county shelter reach zero. Through adoption and foster programs, lifesaving shelter transfer partnerships, and an extensive volunteer base, FCR saves the lives of hundreds of dogs each year in and around Caldwell County, NC.
We are a community-based, 100% volunteer organization, and rely solely on the generosity of our donors to continue our life-saving work for the dogs we rescue as we receive no funding from government agencies. We know that together we can make a difference, one dog at a time. Please join us!
