Overview

Mission

To revolutionize the current, animal shelter model, with a nature-based alternative, providing sanctuary and rehabilitation for dogs at risk of euthanasia and improving relationships with their human families through education, training and outreach programs

What it reported doing in 2015

Helps dogs to thrive by socializing in a pack, as nature meant it to be. We help to alleviate the stress experienced by dogs who come from a "shelter" environment.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
