Rescue FAQs
The Animal Pad (TAP) is an all-breed, all-need 501c3 non-profit dog rescue based in San Diego, CA. TAP is primarily volunteer run and 100% donation based.
Our mission is to form a safe space for dogs experiencing crisis and neglect, and to build a community of compassion through education, rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption. Our community of volunteers and fosters strives to ensure that all dogs get a fighting chance, and believes that no case is too extreme to be helped- meaning our rescue is full of perfectly imperfect dogs who can’t wait to meet you!
We are dedicated to animal advocacy and educating dog owners on the importance of spaying and neutering their pets. We are a foster based rescue, and rely heavily on the kindness and generosity of our community here in San Diego.
We are always looking for adopters, fosters, donations, volunteers, etc. Please let us know if you would like to get involved by contacting us at one of the email addresses found below.

Additional adoption info
We prioritize local San Diego applicants. We do not provide transport of dogs to other states.
All potential applicants must be capable of providing their adopted pet with routine and emergency veterinary care (yearly health checks, keeping vaccinations current, heartworm/flea preventatives, and immediate care in the event the animal is sick or injured). They are required to license their pet, and keep an identification tag on their pet at all times.
All applicants must agree to a homecheck and provide us with a veterinary reference, as well a personal references. Our homechecks are not to invade the privacy of the applicants- We do this to ensure the pet is going into a safe home. We do not discriminate against non-homeowners or those living in apartments, condos, or otherwise.
Our adoption fees vary from $150-1000.
Applicants must agree in writing that if for any reason they are unable to keep or care for their pet, the pet will be surrendered back to our rescue and not re-homed, turned over to a shelter, pound, rescue, new owner, sold, etc.
