Coppers Dream Rescue

Our primary program service is to Rescue dogs that are scheduled for euthnasia at high kill California shelters. We arrange to transport the dogs to the bay area, provide necesarry vet care, training and rehabilitation and house them in foster care until suitable permanent homes can be found. Occasionally, we Rescue dogs that cannot be adopted due to medical or behavior issues. And we provide sanctuary for those dogs for their natural lifespans. In 2023, we rescued and placed 289 dogs and 3 cats.

Finally, our third program service is to assist the general public with rehoming their dogs. We help both families who need to surrender their own dogs and good samaritans who have taken in stray dogs that need to be rehomed. We also assist other rescues and shelters by offering courtesy posting section on our website. Finally, we donate supplies to some of the high kill shelters we Rescue dogs.

Our secondary program is to increase public awareness of the animal overpopulation problem and to rally people to join our cause. We do this through maintaing a facebook page and publishing information on shelter dogs to our community of dog loving followers. We also hold many events through the year such as barbecues, happy hours and charity auctions that raise funds to support our Rescue and help us disseminate information about California high kill shelters to the general public. Finally, this year, we recruited over 200 new volunteers who assist us placing our Rescue dogs and our campaign to educate the public about California's animal overpopulation problem.
