About Us:

It Takes a Village (ITV) is a nonprofit dog rescue! We are currently working on getting our 501 certification to be official in the eyes of the federal government, but we are already registered with the state of Indiana as a nonprofit organization.

Our main focus is to help the dogs located within three shelters in the Evansville area - Gibson County Animal Services, Owensboro Animal Control, and Evansville Animal Control. We desire to influence our community, and hope to one day make a dent in the homeless pet population! In only 2 years, we have been responsible for saving almost 1200 dogs, and we plan on continuing to make that number grow!

Unlike many rescues, we try to focus on the more "undesirable" dogs that find themselves in the shelter. This includes black dogs and/or bully breeds! However, this does not mean we won't save any dog that is having problems finding a home! Please feel free to view and share the dogs located within our "Adoptable Dogs Album" on Facebook or on our Petfinder listings, as they are all still needing homes

Mission Statement:

It Takes A Village Canine Rescue, Inc. is a non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to doing what it takes to find loving homes for stray, abandoned, and surrendered animals, and to keep these animals safe and free from further suffering. By working with committed volunteers, foster homes, local veterinarians, animal control, trainers, and boarding facilities, we are able to rescue countless animals every year and provide them with loving temporary care as we work to find them well-matched forever homes. Although we do not discriminate based on breed, size or color, we have a particular interest in bully breeds, black dogs and other hard-to-place dogs.
