The 3D sanctuary can't open on this device

Your browser doesn't have WebGL available, which the sanctuary needs to draw the courtyard and your companion.

You can usually fix this by turning on hardware acceleration in your browser settings, updating your browser, or trying another one such as a recent Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge.

Our mission

Every dog deserves a home.

We’re building Rescue for people who love dogs and want to help. Pick your dog, give it a name, and make yourself at home.

Outside the game, our goal is to raise money for animal rescue and show you exactly where it goes. We’re starting with a small sanctuary, and we want to keep making it better with the people who join us.

Where donations go

The Donate button takes you to Pet Helpers Inc, an animal rescue charity, on their own website. RESCUE never handles your payment.

Buddy is a virtual companion. Petting and playing fetch are just for fun and don't send money anywhere.

Donating to Pet Helpers
