Coastal Sheltie Rescue + works to save animals from rural high kill shelters, dogfighting, puppy mills, hoarding and other cruelty situations. Often we are the last chance these dogs have. When owners need a safe place to turn to we also provide love and support, when the families need to surrender a dog. We provide animals medical care and behavioral rehabilitation, and help many  animals find loving homes every year.

Coastal is a Virginia leader in animal rescue we work tirelessly year-round to put an end to animal cruelty. None of this critical work would be possible without compassionate people like you. Thank you for your support.
