What is MUTTS4US?

For Dog Adoption, Animal Rescue and Welfare Organisations:
MUTTS4US has created a way for you to place your dogs in front of an audience ready to adopt. We’ve created an online destination where animal rescue, shelters and welfare organisations can create, maintain and edit profiles for all their adoptable dogs and puppies, and augment visibility for your own website.
- Communicate directly with people interested in adopting a dog
- Stay connected with people after they adopt. Reach out to them for support, donations, and alert them of upcoming events.
- Be listed in the MUTTS4US Classifieds — a detailed and searchable directory of pet businesses and locations.
We are also interested in hearing from accredited pet rescue organisations and shelters with a view to providing free banner advertising (subject to availability) to support your great work.
