General information

After rescuing dogs for over 10 years, Dana Darby and Lee Harrington joined forces with Sanderlin Holmes and Susan Pearson to make it official. Lois Bourget of Massachusetts joined the Board, as Director of Northern Affairs.We are a non-profit rescue registered in the states of Alabama and Massachusetts and have been certified by the Massachusetts Department of Agriculture. In our Bessemer, Alabama location we currently have a small sanctuary, a separate climate controlled house for pregnant dogs to deliver and care for their puppies until time for adoption and a large foster network who care for our dogs as they ready for their new homes. We generally have 20-30 dogs in our care at various points on their path to adoption. POH can rarely pull from local shelters due to finding so many on the streets in need of help. We and our volunteers rescue the dogs who are displaced, neglected or abandoned by their owners. Every dog is cared for by our team until healthy, vaccinated and spayed/neutered prior to adoption without exception. POH has a Community Outreach program which provides food, houses, vetting and education on proper dog care to those in need. As well, we provide numerous "Stray Stations" with food and clean water for the displaced dogs in Bessemer. POH is working with Greater Birmingham Humane Society to assist Bessemer Civic leaders, including Mayor Gulley and the Bessemer City Council, to rewrite outdated animal protection ordinances. This self sustaining package will also provide funds for cruelty officers. We are a member of the Bessemer Chamber of Commerce being the first rescue to join the Chamber. We are still in our infancy as an organized rescue and are growing in skills, network and volunteers at an astounding pace. Pound on the Hill Animal Rescue is very proud to serve the community.
