About this shelter

Little Big Dog Rescue in Riner, VA

Little Big Dog Rescue is a dog rescue based in Riner, Virginia, roughly 70 miles south of Winston-Salem, NC, and is open 24 hours every day of the week. Operating as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, it focuses on rescue, rehabilitation, training, adoption, and community education, pulling dogs primarily from local kill shelters and assisting with owner surrenders when foster space allows. Every dog receives full veterinary care—spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, and deworming—before being placed in a foster home, where staff assess personality and needs to find the right adoptive match. The rescue welcomes all breeds and also promotes responsible dog ownership through education on veterinary care, training, and breed-specific needs.
