Del Mar Dog Rescue

Del Mar Dog Rescue is a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing abused, neglected, abandoned, stray dogs. The organization is operated solely by volunteers; and relies fully on adoption fees and charitable donations for its existence. Del Mar Dog Rescue aims to be of service to animals and pets that do not have a voice, by giving them the care and loving companionship they need. Our mission is to rescue dogs that are abused, neglected, abandoned, homeless and helpless. Our goal is to remove animals from impoverished, intolerable conditions and provide them with proper nutrition and necessary veterinary care. Including appropriate vaccinating, evaluation by a veterinarian, necessary treatment, and (age appropriate) spaying or neutering of all dogs that come into our care, which in turn helps stunt the over reproduction of dogs. Likewise, we introduce socializing techniques to teach good pet behavior while reinforcing positive human interaction, to equip our dogs as best as possible for integrating into a happy, healthy environment. Our aim is to save as many dogs in need as possible, preparing them to be adoptable and finding them their forever home. We are based in Southern California (San Diego, CA) and our team of volunteers extends our organization’s reach to places where there is a need for comprehensive animal services. We travel to areas where the capacity to provide the former is limited or non existent, including areas where there are large cases of animal euthanasia. As a rescue we save puppies and dogs from desperate conditions. -There are a surplus of dogs which have been abandoned, homeless, neglected, and that are consistently filling the space at high-kill facilities. -The number of helpless puppies and dogs that we are able to rescue is limited to the the current bandwidth our organization has to care for dogs in our possession and the turnaround time between finding each dog a qualified adopter. -Del Mar Dog Rescue has developed a strong relationship with PetSmart Store Number 1959, in Puyallup, WA, where we have hosted adoption events that consist of an average of 40 adoptable dogs and puppies per event. -In turn, the in-store adoptions are steadily increasing our annual adoptions.
