As of Sept. 9th, we have an open Director position.
We invite any of our members who would like to contribute some of their time and
energy to a very worthwhile cause to step up into this position.
Southern Arizona Beagle Rescue (SoAZBR)
is a charitable, non-profit, all-volunteer organization
dedicated to beagle and beagle-mix dog rescue, education
on the breed and general animal welfare. Formed in October
2005, we serve all of southern Arizona, including Pima,
Cochise, Santa Cruz and Pinal counties.
We provide rescue, education, as well as
training and referral services for homeless beagles as well
as families needing to re-home their beagle. We work with
both purebred beagles and beagle mixes.
At SoAZBR we have several goals:
(1) To rescue and re-home adoptable shelter
beagles that otherwise would be put to death.
(2) To offer beagle owners an educational resource with
regard to the care and love of their beagle.
(3) To assist dog owners that can no longer keep their beagle.
(4) To provide beagles and the people who love them a fun,
local community.
(5) To educate the public on the responsibilities of pet
ownership as well as the importance of spaying and neutering
one’s pets.
(6) To support and promote other animal rescue organizations.
SoAZBR actively supports spay/neuter programs,
advocates responsible dog ownership and partners with animal
rescues across the country to assist in finding good homes
for needy animals. SoAZBR does not have a shelter facility
and has no paid staff. All work is done by our wonderful
volunteers. The dogs we rescue are fostered in the loving
homes of our dedicated volunteers until a suitable home
can be found. These foster families provide a safe, nurturing
home and nutritious food. SoAZBR covers any medical expenses,
including immunizations and spay/neuter services. All dogs
placed by SoAZBR are altered prior to placement.
SoAZBR charges from $75 to $225 for each
dog, depending on that dog's age and special circumstances.
All of this money is used to offset spay/neuter fees as
well as any medical treatments the dog may require. Please
