About Us

Formerly known as Pet Partners Rescue, our mission is to find loving forever homes for unwanted, abandoned, & homeless animals in our beautiful hometown of Lenoir in the foothills of North Carolina.

What We Do

  • Host Adopt-A-Pet Events at Tractor Supply in Lenoir on most Saturdays from 10-2pm
  • Host Puppy Pawties & feature our shelter dogs in our adoption center on select Saturdays from 12-3pm (event updates can be found on our Facebook page)
  • Provide spay/neuter, wellness checks, & vaccines for the animals we foster & adopt
  • Promote responsible pet ownership
  • Showcase adoptable animals on this site, PetFinder, & Facebook
  • Continually raise money to empower us to save more lives

How Can You Help?

We always need reliable and committed community volunteers. To let us know you’d like to help, please fill out & submit the form on the Contact Us page. Our volunteer coordinator will be in touch.

Our greatest needs now are:

  • Foster homes – The more we have, the more animals we can save!
  • Volunteers – Email us today to get involved
  • Fundraising – Ideas & execution
  • Monetary donations – Constant income is necessary for daily operations & animal care


Ongoing needs:

  • Dog food (dry)
  • Antibacterial wipes & disinfecting spray
  • Cloth & paper towels
  • Crates / carriers / corrals / metal bowls
  • Tick & flea treatment
  • Medicine & other care items

We also welcome community groups to assist our efforts. If you’re in Scouts, BETA club or another group that provides volunteers or community service projects, please contact FCR (hours must be scheduled 2-4 weeks in advance). We’re more than happy to provide the hours you need while working toward our end goal.
