Our MISSION

Scarlet Oak Farms is an approved 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal sanctuary operating in Ayden, North Carolina. The foundation of our work rests on a dream that one day hounds will no longer be killed in pet shelters. Our focus is on taking the shelter's unadoptable hound specific breeds to our sanctuary and provide them with refuge and a place to heal.

HOUND SANCTUARY:
A FOREVER HOME
Scarlet Oak Farms is a hound sanctuary. We are a place where rescued hounds spend the remainder of their lives. We do not adopt or foster our animals. Specifically, our organization focuses on rescuing at-risk hound breeds from local shelters and government agencies, giving them a place to call home forever.
Because many of our rescues have previously been abused and abandoned, our mission is to provide them safety and security in a stable environment without rehoming.
HOW YOU CAN HELP
There are so many ways to help! Any donation made to Scarlet Oak Farms goes directly towards the hounds in our care as well as additional rescue efforts.
​
And it's not just resources you're giving with a contribution, it's also hope. When we provide shelter hounds a forever home, you can actually see their spirits lift as this realization takes hold; someone cares.
​
Today, that someone can be you!
In 2017, our local animal shelter alone took in 1,430 dogs and euthanized 484 or 33% of those intakes. The goal of Scarlet Oak Farms is to help reduce the number of strays or homeless hounds from being euthanized in pet shelters.
