We began rescuing dogs and a few cats about 12 years ago. We saw that our local shelter needed help. So in October of 2008 be came Bad Dawg Rescue a 501 (c) 3 Non Profit. We took the name Bad Dawg as a silly thing, because many of our dogs have been the "Red Zone" Breeds, Pit Bull, Australian Cattle Dogs, Dogs with behavior problems, etc. We were so tired of hearing," aren't those dogs, BAD dogs?" That we decided what the heck lets make it our name. We believe that there are NO BAD dogs, just irresponsible owners.

We are a local Non-Profit rescue. Dedicated to helping the animals at our local Hollister Animal Shelter. We take in lots of injured dogs as well as the dogs that have not been able to find a home at our local shelter. We do NOT take in any animals from the public.
Additional adoption info
We do NOT adopt dogs out of state. We do a adoption application, when you are approved we decide if that dog is a good match for you and your family. We do a home check and are always available for questions and advice on your new best friend. We do require a contract and an adopt fee.
