Adoption. Every year more than 4 million dogs and cats are euthanized due to lack of loving, caring homes. Our charge is to significantly reduce this number by informing and educating people about adoption as a viable and responsible option.

Even if you are looking for a specific breed, there are literally hundreds of breed- specific rescue groups across the country. Labs. Aussies. Newfies. You name it, you can get it.

They say an adopted dog knows you saved their life. With every kiss and every wag, you'll know you did the right thing. Please, read more about how Planet Dog can help you give your home a dog.

Pack of Philanthropists. Some wise old dog once said "there's strength in numbers." That's why we created our Pack of Philanthropists. This pack runs in the same generous and caring circle as Planet Dog. Most are right here in our own backyard and some are our global partners.
