"Unless you are the lead dog the scenery never changes"
OnPoint Rescue is a volunteer
rescue group based in St. Louis, Missouri. We
primarily rescue English Pointers and German Shorthaired
Pointers from shelters and find them permanent homes. We do
not have a shelter and therefore depend upon foster homes to
care for our dogs.
********************************************************************
NOTICE
UPDATE: It has come to the point where
myself (Kelly) and Candis need to start living our lives and
enjoying time with our families before our kids are grown
and move out, so at this we, we are not fostering Pointers.
However, we will continue to list Pointers in need on both
this website and our Petfinder site. We don't really
know what the future holds and there is always the
possibility that we hop right back into fostering but at
this time we just need a little break from all the 24/7
craziness of operating a full-time rescue.
Effective, April 15, 2009: Due to the lack of
foster homes available, OnPoint Rescue is currently NOT
accepting any dogs into our program. However, if
you know of a Pointer in need we will gladly list him/her on
our Petfinder site.
In The News
If you have watched the news at all this past week,
you probably have seen a story about a so called breeder
that set fire to his kennel and as a result had all of his
dogs (around 200) seized by the Missouri Department of
Agriculture on Wednesday, February 25, 2009. This is
not the first time this person has had their dogs seized, in
fact about four months ago OnPoint Rescue received 10 GSP's
from his property. Once again we have stepped in to
help with the situation and as a result now have Ella and
Savannah in our care.

Rescue and the Pointer breeds!!
Be a
Guardian Angel and sponsor a Pointer
By sponsoring a Pointer
you provide him or her with food, treats, toys, medical care
(anything not covered by the adoption fee) and most
importantly a wish for a life with a family as caring as
yourself.
