Queen's Best Stumpy Dog Rescue

Queen's Best Stumpy Dog Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization based in California, United States. The organization is dedicated to rescuing corgis and corgi mixes from high-kill shelters in California, with a special focus on those with special needs.

Mission and Philosophy

The rescue emphasizes the rehabilitation of dogs, both medically and behaviorally, using relationship-based training. They aim to match these dogs with families whose lifestyles and needs align with those of the dogs. This approach is grounded in the belief that dogs are lifelong family members and deserve a "furever" home[3].

Activities and Services

QBSDR offers several community events, including pack hikes and training sessions. These activities help raise awareness about corgi rescue and provide opportunities for socialization and training[3]. They are also involved in larger events such as SoCal Corgi Beach Day and NorCal Corgi Con, serving as an official partnering rescue for these events[3].

In addition to adoption, QBSDR provides a sanctuary for dogs that are not suitable for adoption due to past behavioral issues. They also offer support and training for families dealing with behavioral challenges in their own pets, aiming to prevent pet abandonment[3].

Financial Overview

The organization derives its funding primarily from contributions, which account for nearly all of its revenue. As of recent years, QBSDR has reported total assets ranging from approximately $100,000 to over $130,000, with no reported liabilities. Key employees and officers, including the president and director of operations, receive no compensation[2].

Governance and Tax Status

QBSDR is registered under the Employer Identification Number (EIN) 47-1553809. Donations to the organization are tax-deductible[2]. The organization was granted tax-exempt status in March 2015[2].

Adoption Process

Prospective adopters must undergo an application process, which includes an interview, home check, and adoption contract. All dogs are thoroughly vetted by a veterinarian before being made available for adoption, ensuring they are up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, and spayed or neutered[1].
