Maddie's Pet Rescue Project of Alachua County is a community collaboration funded to end the killing of adoptable shelter dogs and cats in the city of Gainesville and the surrounding Alachua County by 2007.
The collaboration’s lead agency is the no-kill Alachua County Humane Society. Other partners include Alachua County Animal Services, Gainesville Pet Rescue, Haile's Angels Pet Rescue, Helping Hands Pet Rescue and Puppy Hill Farm.
Since 2000, Gainesville's rescue and animal control facilities impounded 11,461 dogs and cats; 8,062 were killed. Of those, approximately 3,664 were healthy and adoptable.
In the first year of Maddie's Pet Rescue Project, the partners significantly increased the number of adoptions while dramatically decreasing the number of dogs and cats euthanized at Alachua County Animal Services. Our goal for the first quarter was to limit the animals euthanized to 705. Through the hard work and dedication of our partners and volunteers and the caring nature of the community, we exceeded our goal and only 334 animals were euthanized.
Our goal this year is to find permanent, loving homes for approximately 300 animals every month and to drastically decrease the number of healthy and adoptable animals euthanized.
Help us reach our goal this year.

Florida Great Pyrenees Club
The Florida Great Pyrenees Club (FGPC) was formed in April, 1997, as a regional club. From that original meeting, at which there were about a dozen people, we have grown to more than 200 members. We now have members from Miami to Tallahassee!
Our primary goals are:
(1) to maintain and further the integrity of the breed;
(2) to hold regular club meetings, matches, public education, and fun activities for members;
(3) to exchange ideas regarding care, behavior, training, health, and breeding for Pyrs; and
(4) to be active in Great Pyrenees rescue.
Our club became affiliated with the Great Pyrenees Club of America (GPCA) in December 1999. We recently completed our incorporation as a non-profit Florida corporation, and we are currently working toward formal AKC affiliation and endorsement

Whiskers Hollow is an animal rescue group dedicated to general animal welfare. We find permanent homes for cats and dogs who have been abandoned, left behind, or otherwise neglected.
At Whiskers Hollow, we pride ourselves on our ability to place our animals into homes and with families that fit them. To us there is nothing more special than seeing a family and their new animal companion making that important connection. Whiskers Hollow is just happy to offer that chance!

Lots of other dogs available. All dogs have been thoroughly vetted, neutered and spayed. We aim to help 30-40 mixed breed dogs each year. Come in to our web site and take a look!

The name "Second Chance Farm" about says it all. We care for all kinds of animals who come to us under many different circumstances. We limit our intake of animals to those critters who truly have no one else to look after them. So please do not contact us in hopes that we can take in your own animals or those that have come under your care. We have VERY limited space and unfortunately, there are enough "owner-less" critters out there to keep us quite busy! Most of the animals that come our way are healthy and happy from the start ... but some require medical and/or surgical attention before they are healthy enough to go up for adoption. Our goal is to give these deserving critters a SECOND CHANCE at finding a loving and permanent home. Animals that are not considered "adoptable" (due to medical conditions) stay at Second Chance Farm indefinitely - where they receive necessary medical care for the rest of their life. All of our animals up for adoption are healthy and happy, on flea & heartworm prevention, spayed or neutered and are up to date on vaccinations. We work closely with Gainesville Pet Rescue so many of our animals stay with us ... but their adoption is officially handled through Gainesville Pet Rescue.
