Wags to Riches Rescue & Rehab

Dog rescue in Frederick, MD

Wags to Riches Rescue & Rehab is a small but dedicated organization who believe that humans can truly be a voice for the voiceless animals who have been abused, neglected, or abandoned. We are not a big organization, we have zero overhead, and our administrative costs are nothing more than an ice-cream cone here and there for the many kids (and adults) who volunteer! That means every dollar goes directly to saving dogs……one dog, one day at a time.

Additional adoption info

We are a very small non-profit operated by two volunteers who happen to be avid dog lovers. After volunteering for larger rescue non-profits, we decided to start our own to minimize costs and layers of bureaucracy. Our motto is saving one dog, one day at a time!
