Overview

Mission

Austin dog rescue is a foster home based organization that saves dogs from shelters that were picked up as strays or abandoned by their family and left with no hope of a better life. We believe that life is precious and the dogs we save deserve no less than a second chance at finding a loving, caring home. Our foster caregivers and other volunteers are the catalyst behind giving them that chance.

What it reported doing in 2025

Austin dog rescue places into permanent homes and provides top-notch medical care for approximately 400 dogs and puppies per year. Austin dog rescue provides over and above normal medical care for dogs suffering from illnesses such as heartworm disease, parvo, infections, mange, orthopedic and cataract surgeries. All dogs are neutered, vaccinated, tested for heartworms and microchipped prior to adoption.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 98% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
