Overview

Mission

Our purpose is to help reduce the number of dogs (and cats) being euthanized in area shelters.

What it reported doing in 2025

Our rescue has pulled more than 500 dogs and cats out of area shelters. We have cared for, vetted, socialized, rehabilitated, trained, and adopted all but one currently in our care. Many of these dogs and cats were considered unadoptable by the shelters and would have been euthanized if not taken into rescue. We have also educated people on proper care, spay and neuter, and training of dogs, in order to keep dogs in homes instead of being taken to a shelter.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
No current program activity. The filing reports no program spending for the current year.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
