Reeds Rescue is a non-profit volunteer dog rescue organization serving Baltimore County and surrounding areas. We are dedicated to rescuing dogs of senior age or deemed to be terminally ill from area shelters, dogs given up by their owners because of difficult circumstances, and those in danger of decompensating in the shelter environment. Reeds Rescue will provide nurturing foster homes while they await placement in their permanent homes. Reeds Rescue, the board, and the volunteers will strive to work with area shelters, the community, and other rescues to develop a network of supporters to create a better world for the elderly and terminal pets in need.

Mission and Vision

The purpose of Reeds Rescue is to provide safe and attentive homes for terminally ill and elderly dogs that would otherwise be placed in an animal shelter. We will provide the attention and compassion that is necessary for dogs to thrive for their remaining years through volunteers, fosters and adoptions to loving families. Operating as a nonprofit, our main objective is to provide all necessary care for dogs in need to the best of our ability with the volunteer and financial resources raised through various fundraising opportunities. We will also engage in community outreach to advertise ourselves for those looking to adopt a pet and educate the public on caring for special needs pets.

"So many senior dogs have been given a 2nd chances thanks to Reed’s Rescue. It’s easy to place puppies in homes. It takes a special organization to rescue the older dogs put out to pasture and find them their final forever home."

"Being part of Reed’s Rescue for the past 20 months has been amazing! The rescue is 100% volunteer and to witness what we can do with passion, dedication, and big hearts is life changing. We work with senior and fospice dogs. I’ve seen how saving a senior life has not only impacted the pup yet saved a human…from loneliness, heartbreak, or even making the existing household a little more loving. Senior dogs definitely do not get enough attention and are easily the first ones to go, especially with the rise of surrendered dogs, it’s extra hard to see a dog who has been with a family it’s entire life to be left on the steps of a shelter. Scared. Confused. Forgotten. But Reed’s Rescue doesn’t forget. We work tirelessly to spring these seniors, no matter their condition or the medical cost, and work to find them a forever match. It’s a beautiful reminder that no matter how poorly the pup was cared for, or forgotten in the middle of the night, that it still has so much love to give. We want to be able to allow the senior pups to love until the end."

"Reeds Rescue takes in some of the very hard dogs to adopt out. They take in seniors, many with health issues, and some have behavioral needs also. Once in their care they make sure the dog gets everything it needs and the medical help needed to give that dog the best quality of life. They are foster based and participate in countless events to have their dogs seen to have the best chance at finding their perfect home. RR is a blessing to the seniors.🐶🏡😘"

— lori j.

Volunteer / foster

"Reed’s Rescue has helped so many senior dogs many of whom I had the pleasure of fostering. Reeds takes care of blind, disabled dogs and puts their needs first. Reeds takes care of all expenses for the pup including end of life care and even if it’s a hospice case including vet visits, grooming and medication. They have many events for adoptable pups and this provides a new life or at least happy golden years for abused and abandoned souls."

My Dog Is Food Aggressive With Other Dogs: What To Do

Service Dog Training Costs: DIY vs. Pro
More than 80 million Americans rely on their service dogs to help them navigate the world.

You thought your dog was house trained. Your home was clean from puddles of pee, those dreaded middle-of-the-night bathroom breaks were behind you, and you loved every minute of dog ownership… until your four-legged best friend started using the bathroom inside again. What’s going on?
Coprophagia: Why Does Your Dog Eat Poop?
Ah, poop. We humans think it’s disgusting… but many of our dogs seem to love the stuff. If you’re wondering why your canine companion tries to eat feces (either their own or that of other animals) you’re not alone!

What Is a Reactive Dog? A Guide to Understanding Reactivity
So: Your dog is reactive. They’ll see another dog, person, or other stimulus in the environment (cars, bikes, skateboards, and other fast-moving objects are also common triggers) while out on a walk and suddenly go crazy at the end of their leash.
