Overview
Mission
The organization's primary purpose is to rescue as many homeless and abandoned german sherherds as possible through medical rehabilitation, fostering and re-homing through adpotion.
What it reported doing in 2025
The organization rescued 31 homeless and abandoned german sherpherds from owners and shelters that could no longer care for the animals in 2025. The rescued dogs are placed into temporary foster homes where they are socialized, spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and treated for medical conditions prior to adoption. The organization then actively seeks out permanent homes for the rescued dogs through weekend adoption fairs, the organization's website, and social media postings. The rescue coordinated 30 permanent adoptions and 1 forever foster due to medical conditions in 2025.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 93% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.

The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
