Bad Dawg Rescue

We began rescuing dogs and a few cats about 12 years ago. We saw that our local shelter needed help. So in October of 2008 be came Bad Dawg Rescue a 501 (c) 3 Non Profit. We took the name Bad Dawg as a silly thing, because many of our dogs have been the "Red Zone" Breeds, Pit Bull, Australian Cattle Dogs, Dogs with behavior problems, etc. We were so tired of hearing," aren't those dogs, BAD dogs?" That we decided what the heck lets make it our name. We believe that there are NO BAD dogs, just irresponsible owners.
