My Nonprofit Reviews

Lori and her team at Downtown Dog Rescue not only save dogs from shelters, they prevent animas from entering the shelters and keep families together. The shelter intervention program help keep pets where they belong, with their first families who want to keep them but need a helping hand. DDR also provides education and spay/neuter to prevent unwanted pets from being sent to the shelters. On top of that, Lori and her team save pull senior dogs and other "overlooked" dogs who wouldn't have a chance in a county shelter. Had Lori not saved our beloved dog Ava from an LA shelter, she probably would not have survived. She was shy and afraid and nervous but Lori knew she just needed a family. She changed our lives and so did DDR's spirit and mission.
