Rocket Dog Rescue is a non-profit organization that has been dedicated to saving the lives of abandoned and neglected dogs since its inception in 2006. We believe that every dog deserves a loving home and a second chance at happiness.
We are committed to:
Abandonment is a serious problem in the United States, with an estimated 3.1 million dogs entering animal shelters each year.

There are many ways to support Rocket Dog Rescue and our mission to save abandoned dogs:
Here are a few inspiring stories that demonstrate the impact of Rocket Dog Rescue on the lives of dogs and families:
Story 1: Max the Miracle Dog
Max was a young puppy who was found abandoned in a park. He was suffering from severe malnutrition and had a broken leg. Rocket Dog Rescue rescued Max and provided him with the medical care and rehabilitation he needed to recover. Max eventually found a loving home with a family who adores him.
Lesson learned: Even dogs who have faced the most challenging circumstances can find happiness and a second chance at life.
Story 2: Bella the Blind Beauty
Bella is a senior dog who lost her sight due to cataracts. Her former owners surrendered her to a shelter because they could no longer care for her. Rocket Dog Rescue rescued Bella and found a wonderful home with a woman who is also blind. Bella and her new owner enjoy spending time together, going for walks, and listening to audiobooks.
Lesson learned: Disabilities do not define a dog's worthiness of love and a happy home.
Story 3: Rocky the Pit Bull
Rocky is a pit bull who was rescued from a dogfighting ring. He was traumatized and distrustful of humans. Rocket Dog Rescue worked patiently with Rocky and helped him overcome his fears. Rocky eventually found a loving home with a family who understands his past and provides him with the stability and support he needs to thrive.
Lesson learned: With patience and love, even dogs who have experienced the worst of humanity can learn to trust and bond with loving families.
