rescue group
They extract victims
A rescue group is an organization that takes in abandoned, abused, or unwanted animals—typically from shelters or owner surrenders—and places them in foster homes until permanent adopters can be found.
Unlike traditional shelters, rescue groups usually focus on specific breeds or animal types: The golden retriever rescue group matched us with a three-year-old who needed rehoming.
They often pull animals from kill shelters to give them more time to find homes.
