About this animal protector
Mountain Pet Rescue Asheville is a nonprofit foster-based rescue that connects dogs and cats with adoptive families in western North Carolina. Animals live in foster homes rather than a public shelter. This map location identifies its permanent Thrift Hound fundraising store at 234 New Leicester Highway in Asheville, where shopping and donated goods support animal care. Its separate Candler headquarters is open by appointment only.
Services and ways to connect
Use the official website to enquire about adoption, fostering, volunteering or low-cost spay/neuter assistance.

The store accepts clean, working resale items such as pet supplies, books, art and small household goods. Large furniture needs advance approval: email thrift@mpravl.org. The shop page lists Monday–Saturday 10 a.m.–5 p.m.; its contact page shows different hours, so confirm before travelling.
