We rescue and rehabilitate Great Pyrenees and akbash livestock guardian dogs
Unega Mountain Dog Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the protection and rescue of Great Pyrenees & Akbash dogs in Idaho and surrounding areas.
UMDR works tirelessly to spread their message of hope and compassion for Great Pyrenees & Akbash dogs that are considered at-risk for physical & mental injury, cruelty and abandonment, subjecting them to euthanasia and inhumane treatment due to the fact that they are classified as livestock in Idaho, which makes them unprotected from laws that protect all other dogs from mistreatment.
UMDR has rescued dogs from the most gruesome of circumstances. They run a sanctuary for some of the dogs they have saved, while they rehabilitate and socialize others to help them get adopted into safe, healthy homes.
