Dogma Animal Rescue focuses on saving pregnant and nursing dogs from overcrowded animal control facilities throughout California.

Dogma has but one mission; to save the lives of animals facing immediate euthanasia in the state of California.

Dogma Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, volunteer based organization serving Sonoma, Napa, and Marin Counties. We are dedicated to saving homeless and abandoned dogs from overcrowded animal control facilities throughout the State of California. We especially focus on pregnant dogs that are in danger of abuse, neglect, or euthanasia. Dogma Animal Rescue places dogs into temporary foster homes where they are socialized, spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and treated for any medical or behavioral conditions limiting their adoptability. We actively search for permanent homes for foster dogs by producing and hosting mobile adoption events and other special events that provide exposure to potential adopters.

In practicality, we are just a handful of dedicated animal-loving volunteers who rescue animals from a variety of sources - from county shelters, persons finding litters on their property or sadly abandoned on streets and near businesses. Often we stay up nights bottle feeding puppies, nursing sick or injured animals, or making trips to the emergency vet.

We have no physical address for our organization - we all foster animals in our homes. We are NOT a public shelter – we typically can't help people who need to find homes for their animals. Our purpose is to literally save lives by help animals on the brink of death - animals scheduled for euthanasia due to overcrowding, or abandoned or orphaned animals.
