Rescue Rebels by Cash 4 Canines

Cash 4 Canines, Inc. dba Rescue Rebels' sole mission is to provide a better and improved life, essentially a "second chance", for working dog breeds that have been left at shelters, surrendered by their owners, or that have been abused and neglected. Through Rescue Rebels, these companion animals are rescued, given the physical care necessary, spayed or neutered, and provided with behavioral guidance if necessary. Our TLC Transformation Project welcomes medically fragile companion animals, that have been left at shelters and provides funds for the medical care unique to each animal's needs, and then finds these animals foster homes or "fur" ever homes.

Mission and Vision

Rescue the Mistreated, Save the Injured, & Love the Abandoned. One Dog at a Time to we promise to help them overcome their yesterday's and rewrite their tomorrow's.

"I had the privilege of fostering a shepherd puppy through the Animal Services Center of the Mesilla Valley in Las Cruces, NM, and it's been an incredible journey. With the invaluable assistance of Rescue Rebels, this little pup found her way from New Mexico all the way to Florida. It's amazing how quickly she captured the hearts of her forever family. This rescue experience has truly been a remarkable journey, and I'm grateful to have been a part of it."

"This rescue is one of the most caring and compassionate that my family has ever met. I follow them on facebook watching them save the ones left behind. They pull the sickest of the sickest. We got our girl from them. We are so in love with her and are grateful to them for bringing her into our lives. They are passionate about what they do for the one of the misunderstood breed German shepherds. I wish them the best and will continue to support them anyway we can."

"They pulled a poor dog with multiple health problems that no one wanted and provided extensive support to me as a foster. Took care of Knoxxy every step of the way. They are very responsive, responsible and well run- which is hard to come by. They do a good job at everything- not just getting the dog but taking care of the dog and finding RESPONSIBLE owners to ensure success. They save and place a lot of dogs and for that I’m extremely grateful."

    Thousand Oaks, California has been a safe haven for Sniffspot host, Jen, since childhood. Having grown up in busy Santa Barbara, Jen, an introvert from an early age, would seek out solitude and serenity away from tourists attractions and droves of people visiting from elsewhere. “My grandparents own 60 acres about a 30 minute drive from here, and I grew up spending every summer and every holiday visiting them on the ranch,” Jen explained. “In Santa Barbara, we wouldn't go to the beach on the weekend because that's where everybody was, so you'd find places off the beaten path where the tourists weren't. For me, the ranch was just my happy place.”
