High Sierra Animal Rescue (HSAR) is a no-kill dog rescue located in Portola, CA. For twenty two years we have been dedicated to saving the lives of homeless dogs that can no longer be held at the county shelters. Our nonprofit organization is focused on providing health, quality of life, and emotional stability for animals in Northern California and Northern Nevada.

Our mission is to find loving, caring, “forever” homes for our dogs and you can help. Funding for the shelter’s operation and rescue expenses come from private contributions, grants, events, and memorial donations; our boarding kennels also generate operating income for our life-saving rescue. 

Please consider becoming a Guardian of High Sierra Animal Rescue by setting up an automatic monthly donation. No donation is ever too small when it comes to saving lives. 

All donations are tax deductible.
