About Riverhouse rescue
Our Story
Established in 2024, Riverhouse Rescue is a volunteer run dog rescue dedicated to saving dogs in need. Our foster dogs come from a variety of backgrounds, both locally and across Canada. Through our network of volunteers, foster homes, trainers and veterinarians, we strive to give every dog the loving forever family they deserve. As a foster-based dog rescue, our foster dogs live in private homes in the Shuswap area where they receive the love and attention they need to ready them for adoption.
Foster Process
Fostering is one of the most important jobs in rescue. Without a physical shelter, we rely on our many wonderful volunteer foster families to help us carry out our work. Riverhouse Rescue covers all expenses related to the care of the dog; you just provide the love!
Adoption Process
Thank you for choosing to adopt! Our number one priority is to ensure the best possible fit for both our prospective families and dogs. Stand out from the crowd and be thorough and thoughtful when filling in the application.
We are a volunteer run organization, so please allow up to 72 business hours to receive a response!
