Dove releases look beautiful, but the birds used are domesticated pigeons who often struggle to survive outdoors. Many become lost or can’t find food or shelter. Choosing symbolic alternatives such as sponsoring a rescued dove release pigeon can help keep these gentle birds safe.

Buddy’s rescue started with something unbelievable—she knocked on a home office window, asking for help. Exhausted and alone, this ex–racing pigeon had done everything she could to self-rescue. Our founder went out late at night, climbed up to the roof, and gently scooped her into safety.

Today, Buddy’s life looks completely different. She lives indoors where she’s warm, adored, and spoiled in all the right ways. She spends her days snuggling with her hus-bird, Blue, and greeting people with her signature sass: a very pointed ‘meh-meh’ when she has opinions to share (and she always has opinions).

Buddy survived the racing world, found the courage to ask for help, and now gets to live the soft, luxurious life she always deserved.

Before chickens took over the world, pigeons were already hanging out with humans. They’ve been our companions for thousands of years—and honestly, they’ve earned their place.

Pigeons can recognize over 1,000 images—including faces, patterns, and objects. That means yes… they remember you. And yes… they definitely remember who brings the snacks.

Behind our videos of happy pigeons playing on swings and interacting with people is the sad reality of what they went through to get here.

So many of them were not only abandoned but had severe wounds, were found starving, ill, and were in very bad shape.

Rescuing pigeons is both amazingly rewarding and so sad seeing how many ways people have found to be cruel to animals.

These birds are so kind, loving, and curious animals. All they want is someone to show them kindness. Thanks to all the kindness of those supporting our sanctuary, over 100 pigeons now only have to worry about whether they rather spend time sunbathing or catching raindrops under their wings.

Tell me your pigeon’s rescue story.
