DOGS IN DANGER RESCUE INC
We are a small rescue group operating in the Massachusetts, New Jersey and the New York area that only rescues dogs from high kill shelters and southern rescues. This means a majority of dogs admitted there are euthanized due to lack of space. We very rarely take in owner surrenders, and do not acquire animals from anywhere else besides these shelters we have worked with for years. When we started the rescue in 2007, our collective mission was clear: save at-risk dogs from high-kill shelters and place them in loving, forever homes for the benefit of the dogs and humans alike. We believe the best way to end pet overpopulation and animal cruelty is a unified front with local shelters, other rescue groups and the community. We were so committed to this that we used to drive 12 hour days to save homeless animals, and bring them back to our houses. Now we use USDA certified transporters, and we are proud to be a 501c3 non-profit agency that saves many lives each year. Dogs In Danger Rescue (we are not dogsindanger.com) is our rescue originally based in Maryland but, since we expanded to 4 other states, we are now DBA East Coast Adoption Agency.
Dogs In Danger Rescue Inc.
Dogs In Danger Rescue Inc., also operating as East Coast Adoption Agency, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focused on rescuing dogs from high kill shelters primarily located in the southern United States. The organization aims to prevent euthanizations by transporting these dogs to foster homes in the northern regions, where they have a higher chance of being adopted.
Mission
The mission of Dogs In Danger Rescue Inc. is centered on alleviating the pressure on overcrowded shelters by relocating dogs to areas with more adoption opportunities. It operates as a foster-based rescue, providing temporary care for the dogs until they are adopted into permanent homes. The organization rarely accepts owner surrenders and sources dogs exclusively from high kill shelters with which it has established relationships.
Operations
- Foster-Based System: Dogs In Danger Rescue utilizes a network of foster homes to provide care for the rescued dogs until they are placed in forever homes.
- Geographic Focus: The organization concentrates on relocating dogs from southern high kill shelters to northern rescues.
- Adoption Process: Potential adopters go through an application process designed to ensure the best match for both the dog and the new owner.
Financial Overview
Dogs In Danger Rescue Inc. derives most of its revenue from program services, with contributions also supporting its operations. The organization is known for its transparency, filing annual tax returns (Form 990) to document its financial activities. The executive compensation is relatively modest, and the organization does not incur professional fundraising fees.
Impact
By targeting high kill shelters, Dogs In Danger Rescue Inc. plays a crucial role in reducing euthanasia rates in these facilities. Through its dedication to rehoming dogs in need, the organization contributes to creating a more humane society for animals.

What I appreciate most about Eduo is its neutrality and inclusivity. It doesn't push any agenda — just provides tools for people to explore and support what matters to them.
