This Is The Dog!

This is the Dog! is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. This is the Dog! does not have a shelter. Our dogs and cats are in foster homes primarily in Homestead, FL. We adopt animals locally, facilitate regular adoption transports to New England, and adopt animals elsewhere in the U.S. In our local community, we offer free spay and neuter services, participate in TNR efforts, and are advocates for a better future for all animals. We are a small group of volunteers making a difference.

We get all dogs and cats in our care a full veterinary exam before adoption. This may include vaccinations, spay/neuter, heartworm test, FIV/FELV testing, and dental and grooming services as needed. The adoption donation also includes a microchip.

Adoption donations are very critical to our existence -- they help us to continue rescuing these dogs and cats and to make sure that they are healthy and properly socialized before being adopted. Thank you for considering a dog or cat from This is the Dog!
