Gone-to-the-Dogs Rescue

this rescue does a good job of getting dogs out of the shelters which is wonderful, My 2 star review is for anybody considering fostering for this bunch. I fostered for them for 1.5 yrs with a great experience and then there were some mgmt switches. At this point upon a disagreement as to not being allowed to be involved with my foster’s adoption I chose to not foster for them any longer. I understand all dogs I foster belong to the rescue and that’s fine, however, for the rescue to continue going on line and bashing me and calling me names after almost a year is unbelievably unprofessional, I’ve never gone on line and bad mouthed anybody. Fostering is a wonderful experience and I now do it for a much better organization. For me, Gone to the Dogs has gone precisely there.

Marcy is an angel! She helped me with two senior dogs when no other rescue would even return my calls or emails. She responded without hesitation and even paid to keep the dogs at a cage-​free boarding facility until she could find foster homes for them. I cannot thank her enough for loving Ioane and Ohana as much as I did and giving them the lives that they both deserve! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am forever indebted to you!

Here’s a rescue that quietly paid for post-​op medical boarding to help me rescue a mislabeled pit bull for a US Marine and his fiancé. All the Best and thank you for being there for Chester and all the dogs–

These people are so sweet! Marcy is the sweetest and very selfless! She not only pulled Patches, she vetted him, and flew him out to Chicago!!! Her interest was in finding this sweet boy a furrever home. My family is so grateful for everything she did for him. This is how he started:
today 3 yrs later… he is healthy & strong with strong ties to not only 3 other dogs, but 3 cats as well!!!

Gone to the Dogs is a great rescue. I adopted my dog from them and couldn’t be happier. I’ve also been a foster and they take care excellent care of the dogs and have them all fully vetted and expenses paid. There were no surprises and the ladies were always available for questions or whatever I needed. They stand by the dogs and that is important to me. If you are looking for a dog or want to try out being a foster I highly recommend checking out Gone to the Dogs!

I learned of this rescue by following a woman on Facebook who’s primary mission is to network animals in shelters in an effort to save them. I watched Gone to the Dogs Rescue by following her post — seeing just how many dogs they took in from her networking. I was amazed at the number of dogs they rescued.
Late last year we adopted our Daisy from Gone to the Dogs Rescue and it was clearly evident just how much they are mentally and physically invested in the well being of their dogs.
Our Daisy was not in a shelter but rather in the backyard of a home and when she was rescued by one of their volunteers she was immensely covered in fleas and not doing all that well.
Gone to the Dogs had her fully vetted with proper medical attention and paid for her microchip and spay. Daisy is a joyful addition to our family and it is all because of Gone to the Dogs Rescue.

I love fostering for GTTDRI. They are always there for their dogs whether they are sick, injured, senior or whatever needs they have. They take in mostly dogs that are on the not so desired list. Many rescues scoop up the cute, fluffy, easily adopted dogs and puppies. This rescue has helped me with many a less desirable pooch, any stray I have located, and are all around fantastic. Thank you GTTDRI for always helping me with my neighborhood strays.

We would not have our Wyatt and Andy if not for GTTDR. This group of very dedicated people helped us through every step — and made sure the dog’s welfare came first. Wyatt needed a foster (we failed) and then when helping to foster another little guy (abused and found on the streets), Max, we begged GTTTDR to rescue another little one we couldn’t leave behind. BOTH dogs went to great homes. Then we found Andy who had NO interest in the shelter and needed out asap. GTTDR stepped in and saved him and we once again fostered failed. Best dogs ever. Taunya and Marcy have helped us and always been available with questions. Thank you GTTDR.

I have been fostering for this rescue for a year and I have to say, they are the best! This is an amazing group of folks, out there fighting for the dogs. Everyone pulls together to rescue dogs, get them medical care, transport them to events or to their new homes. No dog is ever left behind, every dog gets the care it needs and every foster has ²⁴⁄₇ support from all members of the group. I just can’t say enough good things about GTTDR. They are top-​notch!

Fantastic rescue! I have been volunteering for them for around 3 years. Great group to work with, and have fostered many, many dogs through them with no issues whatsoever. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to get involved with such a great cause!

You won’t find a more dedicated group of volunteers than this one. They set the bar high when it comes to devotion to every animal in care and the number of animals successfully rescued and placed in forever homes. Their communication is fantastic and they work so well as an organized team to meet every need of each animal, foster and adopter. 5+ stars!!!

This rescue is an amazing rescue! Talk about dedicated people! They truly care about these animals, they spend so many hours of their personal time dedicated to these dog’s care. There should be more people ilke them! I am a foster for them. Plus they saved my mom’s new pomeranian puppy that she just adopted from them from being put down at the pound. Our family is forever grateful!

These ladies fight with everything they’ve got for every single life they can save. I wish I could make a difference like they do.
Thanks to Gone to the Dogs, I have contributed to saving the lives of 5 dogs in 2013. They all have found a forever home, and I can be at peace for knowing I have helped.
