Sarge's Animal Rescue Foundation, Inc.

Sarge's Animal Rescue Foundation, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Waynesville, North Carolina. The group rescues homeless cats and dogs in Haywood County and places them in permanent homes. The organization was formed by volunteers in 2005 after the euthanasia of a dog named Sarge.

Sarge's provides sheltering, adoption services, and a foster program. They also offer spay/neuter programs, behavior training, and wellness services including vaccine and microchip clinics. The organization facilitates animal transports to other shelters to help find homes faster.

The foundation relies entirely on community donations to cover animal care, medical needs, food, supplies, and overhead costs. They aim to decrease the number of homeless pets and improve their welfare. Sarge's supports the human-animal bond and helps shelters maintain a no-kill status.

Services include food and supply distribution, planned giving, and volunteer opportunities. They also offer a training package for dogs and provide courtesy rehoming listings.

Sarge's Animal Rescue Foundation, Inc. is currently the only animal protection organization business listed by BluePages across Western North Carolina.
