FAQ

What areas does GARR serve?

We can respond both in the United States and worldwide when needed.

What training does your team have?

Our team is trained and experienced in many aspects of rescue including shelter setup and operations, water rescue, confined space rescue, high/vertical angle rescue, ground search and rescue (GSAR), and hazardous materials (HAZMAT).

What happens to the animals you rescue?

We make every effort to reunite animals with their owners. If this cannot be done immediately, we will ensure the animals receive the best care possible either at our temporary shelter, or at the facility that covers the area in which we are working.

What types of animals will you rescue?

To begin with, all lives matter to us. If there is an animal in need, we will do our best to save it. This includes, but is not limited to, dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, goats, sheep, poultry, exotics, etc. We have the ability and experience to work with almost any type of animal within our team.

Do you have a shelter I can visit to adopt animals from you?

We are not a shelter-based organization. When we respond, we work with established agencies who normally have facilities already in place. When needed, we will establish emergency shelters and staff them until a more permanent solution can be found and handed off for long-term care.

What type of situations will you respond to?

We will respond to animal needs in situations such as hurricanes, floods, tornados, wildfires, earthquakes, and even war.

What types of donations do you accept?

Financial donations are the easiest to manage. Since each response is different with a unique set of circumstances, the material requirements are constantly changing. Financial donations allow us to purchase what is initially needed until we can set up a point locally to receive donated material items. 

Where do my donations go?

Donations go towards the costs associated with rescuing and helping animals. All our team members are volunteers, and currently no one receives any pay for their time or efforts. Costs can include travel, supplies, food, veterinary care, and necessities for our response team.

Are my donations tax deductible?

Yes. All donations are tax deductible as Global Animal Rescue And Response is an IRS recognized 501(c)3 non-profit organization. All donors will receive a donation letter for your taxes.

Can I volunteer to help without specialized rescue training?

Absolutely. We are always looking for volunteers to help with the intake and care of the animals we bring back from the field, along with other administrative roles during responses. During non-response times, we are happy to have help with administrative tasks, grants sourcing, and fundraising.

Thats Not Supposed T

That's Not Supposed To Look Like That (18 July 2026)

The night before last we were working until 0500 to catch some very elusive dogs for sterilization. We heard a loud pop and thought it was just a rock or something that had hit the front of the van. Then the Starlink stopped working and our internal lighting system stopped working. Then we started to smell something that was obviously not normal.

A quick look under the hood revealed an exploded battery and battery acid all over the engine compartment. Thankfully, our van has two batteries and this one powers all of our accessories and the internal 12v systems. Yesterday morning we did a quick battery swap for a temporary battery until we can get to the repair shop on Monday morning for a replacement. Thankfully this happened when we were not on the road driving long distances surrounded by nothing. But it just would not be a GARR trip without having something that needs to get fixed.......

We are Global Animal Rescue And Response and helping those in need is what we do.
