About Us

Our mission is to help rehome homeless and unwanted dogs in Washington State by providing the resources to enable proper matchmaking for the dog and the new family. We do not do same day adoptions because our process requires an application process with  reference/background and physical home checks. This process ensures we meet the goals of our mission. 

1. Electronic application
2. Meeting the dogs with foster parents if application is a match to the dog
3. Background & reference checks
4. Physical and virtual home visits
5. Electronic adoption agreement
6. Electronic fee payment
7. Hand off & Family picture

Smidget Rescue is a small organization with one founder and several volunteers and fosters. We do not have a shelter facility and our dogs live with foster families in homes all around the Puget Sound. We are always looking for new foster homes!

Smidget Rescue was founded in December of 2010. We started off saving small dogs off the euthanasia list in California shelters. We have evolved over the years and now concentrate on local Washington dogs; from local shelters, direct owner surrenders and strays. We have have found homes for over 3000 dogs since inception.
