Welcome to the Central Valley Rescue Railroad

Central Valley Rescue Railroad is an all-volunteer rescue located in the CA Central Valley.
We are motivated by compassion, powered by volunteers and funded by donations.
We rescue dogs (and an occasional cat) from local shelters, backyard breeders and owners who can no longer care for their pets.  Once in our program every animal is guaranteed a loving home.

All dogs/cats posted are available for adoption. Adoptions require a completed application, an interview with an adoption counselor and sometimes a home visit is scheduled. All animals of appropriate age are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. If we are unable to do so due to age, we will require an additional deposit and we will schedule the surgery within a reasonable time frame. Our adoption fees include age appropriate vaccines, sterilization and micro-chipping.  Our dogs can be seen at Petsmart in Visalia of the Depot in Lindsay on alternating Saturdays from 10am to 2pm. All dogs can be seen by appointment.
