Rescue Me WV is a non-profit dog rescue formed in 2017 and located in Martinsburg, West Virginia. Our goal is to save unwanted and unloved dogs from horrible fates including euthanasia. This goal requires volunteers and community donations to properly vet and care for these dogs until their forever home is found through our fostering and adopting programs. We advocate for the animal shelters in Berkeley, Jefferson and Morgan counties in WV and help those facilities with networking their dogs to find their forever families.
Rescue Me WV is a 501(c)(3) Nonprofit Organization

We are looking for a foster or foster-to-adopt home for this senior fella.
This is Pops. After a death in the family, the property was sold, and Pops was left behind as they could not take him where they were going. He has someone periodically check in to feed and water him. But he is alone and needs a new home. We want to help, but need a place for him to go to.
Pops is a super sweet dog. 11 years old. And about 25 lbs. He has some skin issues going on that we will take care of. Vetting and supplies will be supplied while under foster care.
To foster or foster-to-adopt, please get your app in here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/RMWV/Dog. Please note on app: Pops
If you already have an app in, and are interested, please PM us and ask us to pull your app.
61 animals seized. FOSTERS NEEDED!
The article below is of a recent seizure/cruelty case in Jefferson County. This is just one of 3 cruelty cases JCAC is currently investigating. RMWV was on the scene the day of to assist in the removal of these animals. Ones surrendered to them have been placed. There are ones on hold due to court case. We are interested in pulling them once they are released, but we need fosters badly. The dogs are mostly chihuahua mixes. As it is an open and active case, we cannot say anything else.
To get prepared and prior approval, please get an app in if interested in helping by fostering. Our app can be found here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/foster/RMWV/Dog. Supplies and vetting will be covered by RMWV. Foster will have the first chance to adopt once the dog is ready if they choose.
UPDATE: We have pulled two super seniors so far.
We have these two at our vets today for their intake, tests, etc. Wishbone is also there today getting a much needed dental. And Coojoo was there yesterday for his intake vetting. We are looking at thousands in vet care for these 4. $5, $20, any amount helps us help them. If you wish to donate, that can be done several ways:
