This is Elsa! She is sweet, loves to snuggle and always jumps on her fosters back to ride around the house or enjoy whatever activity is happening around her. While she is not overly friendly with the resident cats, she does not fight and will get along given time. Not all our kitties can be showcased at Petco in Sumter at once, so if you would like to meet Elsa, please complete the adoption application on our website and we’ll contact you!We work with many rescues and strive to find every rescued dog in our care a great home. Sometimes that means transferring that pet to another location where adoption may be more likely. We currently have partners in New York, Pennsylvania, and Vermont. 

If you are interesting in meeting any of our pets, the process is to complete an application.  It can be downloaded as a pdf document from our website and submitted by email to WindyRidgeRescue@gmail.com  as a scanned document or as photos OR can be completed entirely online. Both links are in the header of our website.  

Because we are foster based, we require an approved application to schedule a meet and greet. We feel that is fair to our fosters and rescues so every meet and greet can result in an adoption. 

​We do not have set adoption fees for dogs, but hope adopters will donate generously so we can rescue more. The medical care for every dog can easily exceed the adoption donation.  Average adoption fees for dogs in the area range from $175 up to $450. 

We ask for a minimum adoption donation of $50 for cats regardless of age.  Each cat is up to date on vaccinations, dewormer, and microchipped.  Larger donations are always welcome so we can rescue more.  Medical care for each cat easily exceeds the minimum donation.  

​As with every rescue, our resources are limited and the need for rescue help is unlimited. Your generosity helps us to rescue more.  

​Adopting or fostering for a rescue frees up a space where a new rescue can reside. 

​If you can't adopt or foster, than please consider donating.
