Rocket Dog Rescue is a volunteer-driven nonprofit serving the greater Bay Area, focused on saving homeless and abandoned dogs from overcrowded shelters and responding to dogs from other regions facing abuse, neglect, or euthanasia. Dogs enter temporary foster homes where they are socialized and receive spay/neuter, vaccines, and treatment for medical or behavioral conditions that limit their adoptability. Adoption prospects are pursued through the organization’s website and ongoing mobile adoption fairs and events, and the group also supports individuals and other rescues fostering dogs in need of permanent homes. Founded in 2001 and based in the San Francisco area, Rocket Dog Rescue seeks to create a world where all companion animals have loving, permanent homes and where euthanasia of healthy dogs is avoided by finding adopters. It operates with a policy that donor funds are used only for vegetarian fare and encourages vegetarian food donations at its events. In 2015, the organization partnered with Bulldog Baths to broaden its foster network.
