Leonberger Rescue, Inc.
(866) 443-4542

Our Mission

Leonberger Rescue Inc. was formed to assist in the placement of Leonbergers that are in need of a new home, and to educate and support animal shelters in the identification of Leonbergers in their custody.

If you own or know of a Leonberger that needs a new home because it is no longer a welcome member of its home or being held by a shelter, contact your Regional Representative. If the dog is a Leonberger, we will take responsibility for him and find a suitable home.

Shelters: We will help you!

If you know, or even suspect, you have a Leonberger in your care, please contact your Regional Representative. Someone will come out to verify that the dog is or is not a Leonberger. If it is, we will adopt the dog from you.

Potential Rescue Owners/Foster Homes

Rescue is only as successful as our new adoptive owners and foster homes. If you are interested in fostering or possibly adopting a rescue Leonberger, visit our Adoption/Foster Information page.
