Welcome to FIDO's Companion Animal Rescue...

FIDO's Companion Inc. is a small, family run non-profit 501(c)3 organization made up of volunteers who perform vital functions in the process of rescuing animals. We operate out of Avon, Ohio. We primarily rescue dogs from the Lorain County Dog Pound before they are put to sleep.

FIDO's Companion rescue strives to find new adoptive families willing to make a lifetime commitment and be lifetime companions for each dog we rescue.

Our focus is on the QUALITY of life we provide to one canine companion at a time. FIDO's Companion believes that the value of what we do is not in the Quantity of animals we save,but in the Quality of the new life we provide to them.

We also strive to educate the public about humane treatment of animals and the importance of spaying and neutering pets.

We are sorry, but we can't take in owner relinquishments and we will not respond to any email requests to do so. We do wish the best for the dog they are trying to place.

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT! PLEASE MAKE A DONATION TODAY AND HELP US SAVE AN ANIMAL IN NEED!

LIVES SAVED:
2005 - 54
2006 - 58
2007 - 79
As of Sept. 2008 - 63

The Animals' Savior
I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter...the cast-offs of human society. I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal. And I was angry. "God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?" God was silent for a moment and then He spoke softly. "I have done something," He replied, "I created You."
