About this shelter

Weimaraner Rescue of the South in Birmingham, AL

Weimaraner Rescue of the South is a rescue organization based in Birmingham, Alabama, located in Jefferson County, about 5 miles west of the city, alongside 15 other animal shelters and rescues in the county. It is an all-volunteer, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming Weimaraners in need across Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, parts of Louisiana and Georgia, and the Florida Panhandle. Its rescue efforts are funded through adoption fees and donations from Weim-loving supporters, and it works to carefully match each dog with the right family and lifestyle to ensure a successful placement. The organization also relies on foster families to open their homes to dogs until a permanent home is found.
