Our Mission

Detroit Dog Rescue is a licensed 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focused on raising awareness of the plight of the forgotten, homeless and stray dogs of Detroit, while building the first no-kill shelter within the city limits. Detroit Dog Rescue was founded in February 2011 and has expanded programs within one year to include monthly free/low cost vaccination clinics, free spay and neuter clinics, community outreach and education, free food and vet services to Detroit residents, and canine rescue, rehabilitation and placement.
