Overview

Mission

Lucky dog rescue inc. Is a non-profit animal welfare organization dedicated to providing rescue services, vet care, foster care, and adoptive placement to stray and abandoned dogs. Lucky dog focuses its efforts on "barc" (the bureau of animal regulation and care-houston's city pound) in particular the animals that are in danger of being euthanized for whatever reason and animals that have been at barc the longest (i.e. The 90-day dogs). Lucky dog's main goal is to rescue as many animals as possible and place them in loving homes to help alleviate the crowding at barc, thereby saving even more animals.

What it reported doing in 2024

As of 2019, lucky dog rescue has placed over 820 dogs in loving, forever homes. Lucky dog is in the process of winding down, and has discontinued its fundraising and adoption events. The organization received indirect donations in 2019 through the amazonsmile campaign, and will continue to provide financial support, until all funds have been exhausted, to dogs adopted through its program, and ongoing rescue efforts in houston.
