Ten years ago, Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation began with a focused mission- to rescue dogs and cats from euthanasia in overcrowded shelters and place them for adoption into loving homes.It has been ten years of transporting dogs and cats, ten years of vet visits, ten years of providing daily care, ten years of adoption events.

Ten years of running to the rescue for over 17,000 pets.

With every squirmy little puppy, every playful kitten, every wide-eyed dog, and with every homeless cat with no where to turn, we live our mission.

This August, join us as we celebrate 10 Years of Running to the Rescue and prepare for the next decade of lifesaving work.


Your support will help keep us running to the rescue for the next ten years and 17,000 pets.
