Saving lives and making happy tails...

K9 Kindness Rescue, Inc!

We have been rescuing furry friends and completing families across the Midwest since 2004!

COVID-19 Pandemic

Disaster Response

COVID-19 Pandemic

As a dog rescue in the Quad Cities, K9 Kindness is in a unique position to be able to continue 'normal' operations.

Our volunteers and fosters continue to work from home practicing social distancing, even when taking our dogs to veterinary appointments. We continue these practices when doing home visits and adoptions. We are working together to make sure everyone is as safe as possible while we also try to continue to save dogs, who right now are being affected by all of this.

Personal hygiene and washing hands thoroughly as indicated by the CDC and WHO continues to be practiced before and after all interactions with our dogs and humans. All of our face to face fundraisers have been postponed until further notice, but please know that we depend on your support, financially, and in finding foster homes for our dogs as well as other ways, such as word of mouth and Facebook sharing of our dogs.

Please stay safe and continue to follow local, state and federal guidelines for this virus outbreak, as outlined by the CDC and WHO.

Thank you,
K9 Kindness Rescue, Inc.

Last night we received a 911 call for a puppy in excruciating pain. He appeared to have double broken legs. We weren’t the first call as local is typically faster, but mywe were the last call. Unfortunately, we have seen it first hand and understand why local Houston rescues are full. This immediately became a group rescue effort to get this puppy out of pain as quickly as possible. Huge thanks to Dr. Bone at Big Thicket Vet, who dropped everything to go back to the clinic last night! Thank you to Melrose Park Neglected Dogs and Country Love Bullies in Houston who coordinated everything for us, Spring Fults, who met the finder at the vet for Cramer! Cramer is one lucky puppy! Honestly, we thought the night would not end well for him. Fortunately, he only has a broken back leg. His front is a sprain. Dr. Bone believes he was hit by a car and escaped major internal injuries. Maybe he is part cat, and used up one of his 9 lives, we don’t know, but we are so grateful he is doing so well!He was given heavy duty pain control, and splinted last night. Today his leg was casted. Cramer is on crate rest and pain medication while he heals. He will make his journey to Iowa when it is safe for him to travel.Bless everyone who came together in a minutes notice to help him and us! Cramer, we love you already, buddy!If you would like to contribute to his care, our PayPal and Venmo are below and his wish list will be in comments. We will update on bills tonight when we receive them. We aim to only fundraise enough necessary to cover Cramer’s expenses, but anything raised over his treatment costs, will go directly to help other dogs in need.Venmo: @K9KindnessRescuePayPal: paypal.me/k9kindnessrescue ...

Hound Us

We're crazy about dogs. Really. We love dogs, right down to the point that they boss us around. But likewise, our aim and goal is to make sure that they have loving and forever homes. We've been around the block and seen a lot of different fire hydrants. Including that REALLY yellow one. Ask your dog, he knows the one. If you have questions about other stuff or just want to inquire about our day to day stuff, please feel free to use the contact form.
