Overview

Mission

Hart-2-heart rescue provides in-home foster care for homeless, abandoned and unwanted puppies and dogs. Canines entering the rescue receive medical care, training and spay/neuter services. The rescue ensures that adoptions are for life by carefully matching each animal with the best-suited family and by educating and working with adoptive families on behavioral and training challenges.

What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025, the organization rescued 87 dogs. There were 62 adoptions and we assisted 64 additional animals that did not officially enter the program.

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. Liabilities are high compared with assets.
