If your goal is to enjoy a seamless and stress-free transition for you and your new companion, Godbey Creek Canine Rescue is the place to start. Since 2013, we have placed more than 600 dogs successfully with just a 2% return rate because of our dedication to matching the right pet to the right owner in the right environment. 
Our rescue dogs enjoy roughly 30 days of loving attention, and also spend time in a home environment getting 1:1 house training. They receive roughly 8 hours a day outdoors, weather permitting, rather than being confined to indoor kennels 24 hours a day. When you come to us to see our dogs for adoption, you will see the difference this makes. 
We knew that it would be rewarding to end unnecessary euthanasia by transforming rescue animals so they can bring happiness to a loving family. All too often, animals are at risk of euthanasia due to behavioral conditions that can be overcome in the right environment. We set out to be that environment, and then match the right pet with the right owner. 
Adoption fees help provide medical care, food and shelter to the animals in our care. When you adopt from Godbey Creek Canine Rescue, oftentimes you are receiving more than $450 of services in exchange for your pets adoption fee. 
Did you know that at Godbey Creek Canine Rescue, we offer many opportunities to donate? You can volunteer your time, donate supplies for the pets, or offer to foster or sponsor a pet, and of course, we accept monetary donations for our rescued dogs. 
Godbey Creek Canine Rescue and our boarding facility is licensed by the NC Department of Agriculture and maintains an excellent standard of care for your pets. Book your dog’s stay today by calling us for more information! All dogs must be current on rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccinations two weeks prior to boarding

My wife and I were introduced to Marium and her staff at Godbey Creek Canine Rescue through another rescue (Piedmont Animal Rescue), and we were both so excited to see such a well kept and beautiful ranch that dedicated so much time and effort to helping people find the right dog. We have a little pocket beagle (Olive) that's about 9 years old, who surprisingly is still spry, needed a companion to help keep her company through her senior years. The two got along perfectly thanks to GCCR. Definitely the place to go for professional help and care for all dogs

This adorable puppy was found in our yard. We were unable to keep her permanently. I reached out to Godbey Creek and they were so helpful. We kept her until a perfect family could be found for her. We were kept informed of the process and have even received updates on her. I would definitely recommend Godbey Creek to anyone who asks.

Mariam with Godbey Creek Canine Rescue did a great job to help me rehome my 8-month-old Doberman (Dobi). I have to rehome Dobi since I moved unexpectedly. After I made the call, Mariam responded quickly and scheduled the second day for meeting Dobi and received Dobi after the meeting. Mariam impressed me with her professionalism, kindness, and commitment to take care of animals with need.
The Godbey creek canine rescue center is very clean, lovely, and well-organized. After 7-day rehoming process with new owner, Mariam updated me with Dobi in new environments. She is so nice to keep me posted. I hope that more people can know Godbey Creek Canine Rescue Center.

We first found Godbey Creek Canine Rescue and met Marian and her staff in February. How very glad that we did. I highly recommend Godey Creek for their caring and the attention given to the animals in their care. The facility is absolutely beautiful and Very clean and well maintained. This staff walks the talk, and we are so pleased to have found "Toby". Thanks to each of you.

I am so thankful to have found Miriam and Godbey Creek Canine Rescue! My son had 2 deaf blue/red heelers and needed to rehome them. We had tried other rescues but weren't comfortable with leaving the dogs there. I called Miriam on a Saturday and left a message and she called me back on Sunday and said she thought she could help me. We took the dogs for a meet & greet that next week.
We were very impressed with Godbey Creek Canine Rescue! There was beautiful, rolling acres and acres of fenced in property and everything was so clean and organized. You could tell the dogs would be happy there until they found a good home. I knew after that meeting that Miriam would only let them go to the best home possible. It didn't take long before she called and said they had found the perfect family! I'm so thankful she helped us and I have no doubt that Axel & Diesel are living their best lives! Thank you so much, Miriam!

Godbey Creek Canine Rescue is a beautiful place with a professional, devoted staff who truly care about the animals. They pour a lot of love into the process of finding the right home for each dog. They look at each dog individually, take the time to truly get to know them, learn their quirks and what not and are able to effectively match them with loving homes. Their passion for finding forever homes is what truly sets them apart.

What a wonderful place with wonderful people! We adopted our third dog from here a couple months ago. When she came to us, she was beautifully trained to go to her crate, walk on a leash like a dream, and generally behave like a polite canine. We did have some issues with housetraining, but that's to be expected from a dog making a big change like this, particularly when one of our other dogs was reinforcing the problem due to separation anxiety.
I was quite pleased with the process of adoption: they seem determined to find the right fit for the dog and the family, which I appreciate. Even if it had turned out that we were NOT the right fit, I felt confident this dog would've found the perfect home for her. Still, I'm very glad she's ours! They're a relatively new rescue, and I've been trying to help get the word out about how wonderful they are.
