Dog Star on the Move!

After 10 years, Dog Star has outgrown its current rented facilities and we are purchasing a new location!  We will now be able to help even more of our sweet, four-legged friends and better control for the future good works of Dog Star.

Would you consider becoming part of our journey?  We already have a great start.   We have secured a $150,000 match grant from the Stich Charitable Foundation.  While this match is in effect, your donation will be DOUBLED, so it’s a great time to donate.  Your financial support ensures that our mission to save as many dogs as possible continues to thrive.

We appreciate all the effort of our donors and volunteers and couldn’t exist without your generous support.  Please partner with us to make our new building capital campaign a success.  We are grateful for and welcome all donations regardless of amount.

Dog Star Rescue has found homes for over 7,000 dogs! Check out some of our adorable pups and their Success Stories
