South Bay Dog Rescue

Animal rescue in San Diego, CA

South Bay Dog Rescue, established in 2015, is a new name to the rescue world! However, we are not new to rescue work. For the last seven years, the volunteers of South Bay Dog Rescue
worked under another rescue until gaining their own non-profit status later last year. As a rescue, we are committed to finding our lovely dogs their forever homes. We see our animals not just as pets, but members of a family.

Many of the dogs we take in have been through trauma and it is our goal to help them recover so that they can experience love, compassion and a fulfilling life with their new family. We dedicate our time to finding the best fit for not only the dog, but the owners as well. At the end of the day, we want our dogs to find what they haven't had the opportunity to experience: unconditional love and understanding.
