The Island of Misfit Dogs Rescue and Sanctuary

The Island of Misfit Dogs Rescue and Sanctuary Here on The Island of Misfit Dogs, we see the value in every dog. We work with shelters and fellow rescues along the East Coast.

Our mission is to save dogs, who have been abandoned or surrendered, and to find them the perfect forever homes. Our goal is to provide vetting and socialization to dogs in need so they may find new families and live long, happy lives. Your donations support this effort, and provide food, enrichment, and veterinary care. Our dogs are spayed & neutered, and fully vaccinated before leaving our facil

ity. We provide flea, tick, and heartworm preventatives to our incoming dogs and complete dental exams. Each dog who comes to 'the island' is in a home-based environment and becomes part of our pack. We do not kennel or board our dogs, as we believe kindness, consistent human contact, and friendship of the other dogs improves their self-esteem and readies them for a bright future.

Happy Mother’s Day!!!

A friendly reminder that our ‘outside’ furry friends won’t hurt you, so don’t hurt them! Be kind to your neighborhood trash panda 💕
Thank you to our Possum family for eating all the ticks, and we’re incredibly grateful that our skunk friends have eliminated most of our yellow jacket nests.

Some of the dogs are happy about getting more snow. Even the Huskies are over it! Abby, Riley, and Nala are playing their favorite game, ‘Murder’.
