Nonprofit Overview

Causes: Animal Protection & Welfare, Animals

Mission: The Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation (LDCRF) is a non-profit organization that is actively involved in taking in and finding new, loving homes for at risk cats and dogs. In this process, LDCRF ensures that these companion animals are temperament tested, current on all necessary vaccinations, and either spayed or neutered prior to becoming available for adoption.

Once adopted, LDCRF enters into a contractual relationship with the adoptive family to ensure that the animal is properly cared for, and conducts follow ups to ensure this. LDCRF conducts public adoption events at area Petsmarts on weekends. These events are staffed by volunteers who interview prospective adopters, answer questions about the animals, and take advantage of the opportunity to educate the public on the benefits of spaying and neutering; the need to obtain proper veterinary care; and of providing basic obedience training to their pets.

This is my 10th year volunteering with Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation. In that time, LDCRF has grown tremendously. We now have 10 adoption events every weekends, and we have adopted out over 17,000 dogs and cats. The fosters and volunteers are wonderful, helpful, caring people. The dogs and cats are grateful to have been rescued and eager to please their new families.

I started volunteering with LDCRF in 2002. The people were extremely friendly and helpful, and the procedures for adoption seemed sensible and easy to follow. I adopted a kitten that year, and several years later adopted a wonderful dog. The rescue is a strong member of its community, helping to educate potential adopters on animal care and the importance of spay/neutering. The volunteers care about the animals and about helping them find the right home.

LDCRF does a wonderful job of taking animals out of high-risk shelters and other unfortunate situations and matching them with forever homes. LDCRF's volunteers are people-friendly and informative, and the animals have received a good vetting before they are placed.
