Welcome to 3 Hearts 4 Paws Animal Rescue!

A NJ Non Profit Corporation

Because every life is worth saving ....2570 saved with so many more second chances ahead          

Founded in 2013, 3 Hearts 4 Paws Animal Rescue is a New Jersey-based non-profit dedicated to helping within the community and saving dogs from high kill shelters across the U.S.  We're a 100% volunteer driven, foster based animal rescue organization. We firmly believe that animals thrive when given the opportunity to live in a loving home environment while they await their forever families.  

Unlike traditional shelter settings, our foster homes provide animals with the comfort, stability, and individualized care they need to heal, grow, and succeed. As part of a family, they receive love, socialization, guidance, and the chance to learn what life in a home is all about.

This approach not only benefits the animals but also allows us to better understand their personalities, needs, and behaviors, helping us make thoughtful, lasting matches with adoptive families. Our goal is to ensure that every animal in our care has the best possible foundation for a happy and successful future.

OUR MISSION:

Our mission is to advocate for, protect, and save the lives of animals in need, with a primary focus on dogs. Through rescue, rehabilitation, and responsible placement, we provide vulnerable animals with a second chance at life while promoting compassion, respect, and humane treatment for all animals. We are committed to educating the public, raising awareness about animal welfare issues, and inspiring communities to take an active role in preventing neglect, abuse, abandonment, and overpopulation. Through advocacy, outreach, and collaboration, we strive to create a world where every animal is valued, protected, and given the opportunity to thrive. Our mission is rooted in love and compassion—to stand up for animals who cannot speak for themselves and to give them the safety, care, and second chance they so deeply deserve. We rescue those who have been forgotten, heal those who have been hurt, and place them into homes where they can finally feel safe, cherished, and loved. Every life we touch matters, and every story of recovery reminds us why we do this work. We believe that change begins with understanding and empathy. By educating and inspiring others, we hope to awaken a deeper sense of responsibility and kindness toward all animals. Through our outreach, advocacy, and partnerships, we strive to build a more compassionate world—one where no animal is neglected or abandoned, and where every living being is treated with dignity, respect, and the chance to live a full and happy life.
