about puget sound goat rescue

Percent of donations

 

Puget Sound Goat Rescue is a 100% volunteer run, 501 (c)(3) registered charity. Each year, we rescue goats from a variety of situations where they are unwanted, mistreated, neglected or abused. The goats are cared for at the rescue until they are ready to be adopted to permanent, loving homes. Since its inception in 2001 we have rescued over 1,900 goats, averaging 200 per year in the last few years. Please note, because we are focused on helping the animals in our care, we are not open to the public for visits.

100% of donations go directly to animal care.

Adoptable goats

Helping goats in need

In addition to rescuing goats from local slaughterhouses and taking in dozens of dairy & breeder cull babies every year, Puget Sound Goat Rescue takes in goats whose owners are no longer able to care for them, as well as goats found wandering as strays. 

every donation counts

100% of all donations go directly to the care of the goats we rescue. This includes the basics like feed and bedding, as well as veterinary care for goats with special needs.

Ruby Tuesday! It’s Tuesday and our beautiful Ruby girl needs your help! We have the opportunity for Ruby to start acupuncture and cold laser light therapy as early as next week! Ruby was part of our Golden Girls dairy rescue this past spring. Although she is not yet in her golden years, Ruby needed retirement as she likely has spinal nerve damage that she sustained during kidding last year which lead to a needed c-section this year. She came to us shortly after her c-section this year. Since coming to us she has gained much needed weight and now has a beautiful, shiny coat. But Ruby doesn’t get around like other goats. She is slower to get up and down and can’t lift her back legs when walking quite like other goats which causes her walk to be more like a shuffle and impacts the way she carries her body weight. Our hope is that acupuncture and cold laser light therapy will help to heal some of the nerve damage she suffered and will, in time, help her get around a little easier. These new treatments will be in addition to what we are currently doing for her under the recommendations of Dr P. Ruby will get to see Dr P later this week then she will start weekly sessions of acupuncture and cold laser therapy with Dr B next week. We need your help to make this happen for Ruby. Donations toward Ruby’s treatments can be made via the link in our profile. Please help us help sweet Ruby! Thank you! ❤️ #ruby #rescuegoats 📷s: @karligoetzphotography
