Rescue Charlie’s Friends was established in 2018 because we love dogs and want them to have the best life possible.Many dogs lost their homes due to fire, floods or hurricanes. Others have been abandoned, neglected or abused.Whatever the cause, our mission is to rescue them and match them with a loving forever family.Most of our dogs come from high-kill shelters. The shelters do the best they can but due to limited facilities, dogs can’t stay long. Dogs must be moved out quickly or be put down.These are Charlie’s Friends. These are the dogs that we focus on.We stay in touch with shelters and volunteers in Texas, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and elsewhere.We bring the dogs to Maine where Fosters care for them until they are adopted.

We rescue as many dogs as we can but we always need more help.
