Incredible Dog Nonprofits 

All animals are deserving a beautiful life.  However, their fair treatment is not always a reality though, prompting a passionate response from activists across the country.  There are many organizations which promote and facilitate the health and well being of all animals, especially those who have overcome abuse and other hardships.  We are sharing a list of five organizations featured which do an excellent job of saving and protecting innocent animals so that they can overcome cases of cruelty and ultimately lead happy and healthy lives!

• Best Friends Animal Society – Their mission is to, “Bring about a time when there are No More Homeless Pets.”  Founded in the 1980s, Best Friends Animal Society addresses the cruel and outdated management efforts of many shelters who use killing as a method of population control.
• Human Society of the United States – This is the largest organization of its kind, aiding over 100,000 animals each year with hands-on relief efforts.
• Underdog Rescue – In 2000, an attorney named Shannon McKinzie recognized the need for special rescue of the “Underdogs” in her community that were overlooked by other shelters. Animals like the black kittens and Pitbull puppy that were among Underdog Rescue’s first mission are oftentimes ignored because they are less popular among adopters at shelters.
• The Animal Foundation – This is Nevada’s largest open-admission animal shelter.  The mission of The Animal Foundation is to save lives of all healthy and treatable animals in the Las Vegas valley.
• Kansas City Pet Project – The purpose of this nonprofit is to facilitate the placement of homeless pets into suitable homes.

These are just a handful of some of the most incredible dog nonprofits out there.  We thank them for their time, energy, and efforts as they do everything, they can ensure that our four-legged friends are getting the life in which they truly deserve!
