Love on a Leash Dog Rescue, Inc.

Dog rescue in Ellicott City, MD

LLDR is a non-profit, foster-based, no-kill rescue committed to saving homeless dogs who would otherwise face certain euthanasia, and is committed to educating new dog owners in the practices and considerations for transforming newly adopted rescue dogs to lifelong companions.

LLDR endeavors to reduce the number of dogs currently in high kill shelters and to place them in loving homes. The goal and vision for LLDR is to save dogs of all sizes and all breeds by placing them into loving, permanent homes. We are an all-volunteer, foster-based, 501(c)(3) (applied for, pending approval) dog rescue organization based in Central Maryland. We do not presently have a physical shelter.  Instead, we operate primarily through the dedicated support of our experienced foster homes.
