Our mission

What sets us apart

While other rescue programs have some similar aspects in common with our organization; our features make us unlike any other rescue in the area. By utilizing programs such as Puppy Culture while the dogs are in our care; and providing complete veterinary care, thorough behavioral testing, and lifetime support, For the Love of Dog creates an exceptional experience for both the dogs we rescue and the adopting owners. We strive to establish a strong foundation for the well-being of our dogs and to build enduring relationships with adopting families, ensuring that each dog finds a loving forever home.

why ftlod rescue?

Our rescue not only focuses on saving and rehabilitating dogs, but also on building a community of adopting families who share a common passion for providing the best care to these rescued animals. We believe that by bringing together like-minded individuals, we create a network of support and knowledge that extends far beyond the adoption process. Adopting families have the opportunity to connect, share experiences, and offer guidance to one another, fostering an environment of empathy and understanding. Through regular events, workshops, and online forums, we encourage communication and collaboration, ensuring that every dog in our care receives the utmost love, attention, and lifelong support. Our community is a place where new friendships are formed, valuable insights are shared, and the well-being of our rescued dogs is continuously prioritized.

By placing dogs in loving foster homes instead of traditional shelter facility, foster-based rescues offer a more nurturing and comfortable environment for the dogs. This allows them to receive individualized care, attention, and socialization, which greatly enhances their physical and emotional well-being. Foster homes also provide valuable insights into the dogs' personalities, behaviors, and compatibility with different households, enabling more accurate matchmaking for successful adoptions.
