Overview

Mission

DRR works to rescue stray dogs and those from pupply mills and shelters. DRR provides necessary medical care, food, housing, socialization and rehabilition for each rescued dog in need.

What it reported doing in 2024

Dog Purchase Expense - We go to puppy mill auctions where owners are taking their dogs to sell them to other puppy mills to use as breeders whereby increasing the number of dogs that have to be euthanized in the United States on a daily basis. We buy the dog from the puppy mill owners and begin medical treatment and have the dog spayed or neutered to stop the cycle from repeating itself. Puppy mills in the united States are under-regulated and dogs that come from puppy mills are treated inhumanely and are often in need of extensive medical treatment. We also rescue dogs from Craigslist that are being sold to continue to be bred and thereby increasing the over population and need for euthanasia. In both situations we must pay for the freedom of the dog in order to spay or neuter it. Over the past year, we have rescued, treated and re-homed over 200 dogs.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 77% 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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
