Wings of Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2012 that conducts large-scale transport missions to move at-risk shelter pets from disaster zones and overcrowded shelters to safer, available facilities. Based in San Diego, California, the group operates with a small staff and collaborates with partner shelters and rescue organizations to relocate dogs and other animals to spaces where they can be adopted or cared for during emergencies. The organization serves animal shelters and rescue groups facing capacity challenges or disasters, offering a logistical solution to free shelter space and reduce strain on local facilities. Through coordinated partnerships with regional shelters and rescue partners, Wings of Rescue helps redirect animals to shelter networks that can provide sheltering, care, and potential adoption, particularly in times of wildfire and other emergencies. A recent development includes collaborations with municipal and nonprofit partners to transport animals to shelters with available capacity, reflecting an ongoing role in emergency animal relocation efforts.
