Every dollar has a dog behind it

Buddy Love Dog Rescue is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit. No one draws a salary. Every donation goes directly to caring for dogs in our rescue, from emergency vet bills to transport costs to the supplies our foster families need.

Our two biggest costs are veterinary care for dogs who arrive with medical needs, and transport to bring dogs from high-risk areas to safety. These costs are real, they are significant, and your donation makes them possible.

Our promise to you
We will never use your donation for anything other than the direct care and rescue of dogs. Our financials are available upon request as a registered 501(c)(3) organization.

Monthly giving

The most powerful way to help is to show up every month

One-time donations are wonderful. But monthly donors are what allow us to plan, to take on more dogs, and to say yes when a dog needs us urgently.

Predictable funding means we can say yes to more dogs in need
