About

MBR is a small group of people who try to help as many displaced animals as possible.

We work with humane officers, veterinarians and shelters in the state of Ohio to help dogs that are being mistreated, abused, neglected, or have medical needs. We also take in dogs from high kill shelters, local county-run pounds, and in-state rescues to allow them to make room for new in-takes to their facility. Occasionally, in extreme circumstances, we will assist with owner surrenders. Once in our care, all of our animals are given proper and necessary vetting to ensure their well being. We do not have a public shelter; the majority of our dogs are in foster homes. That means prior to adoption, our animals live in someone’s home until they can be placed in a loving FURever home. MBR operates 100% on volunteers and donations. We are a registered non-profit 501(c) 3.

From 2006 through 2021, we have rescued over 3,000 animals and plan to grow that number as we continue on our mission.

We are 100% volunteer and foster based. Some of our dogs are housed at a Boarding & Training facility located in Grafton Ohio. We do conduct our meet & greets at this facility as well. All meet & greets are pre-scheduled as none of the dogs available for adoption are at the facility.
