Doggie Protective Services (DPS) - Carlsbad

Animal rescue in Carlsbad, CA

We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) animal organization that has been in existence for the past 16 years. We do adoptions in No. CA, So. CA, AZ and Las Vegas.

We are a dedicated group of folks who are passionate about animals and committed to reducing the euthanasia rate in our local shelter. We can not save the world and we will not attempt to do so. We will simply take responsibility for those who cross our path. We pledge to make every effort to find as many FABULOUS homes as possible for our animals.

We will not agree to place an animal if we do not believe it is the best match. Our dogs are our priority but we also believe that in order to place animals, the humans also have to be respected and we have to build relationships with them.
