Ruff Day Rescue

Dog rescue in Discovery Bay, CA

We started in 2022 after fostering our first dog- Elsa- who also became a foster fail. She was set to be euthanized in a Texas shelter very pregnant. She was difficult, but once she trusted us, she gave unconditional love and fit into my pack. We decided then and there to dedicate our life to saving dogs. We are a large breed rescue, specializing in Shepherds, Mixes, Mals, Huskies and others. We have saved over 250 dogs in one year, all in wonderful, adoptive families whom we still keep in touch with. We partner with many shelters across the state, and save 90% of our dogs from the euth list at the local shelters.
