DONATIONS
Items Needed
SHDR is a local, 100% foster-based rescue. We do not have a shelter; we do not use your donations for salaries or marketing. Every dollar goes directly to helping a dog in need: food, vaccinations, and medical care. Besides monetary donations, we are always in need of certain ITEMS, whether new or used (for most items). We also have an Amazon wish List for convenience, but can use items purchased from anywhere.
- Towels, blankets, sheets, cloth diapers
- Leashes, collars, harnesses, toys, beds, crates, x-pens
- Cleaning supplies, paper towels, garbage bags, etc.
- Dog food, treats
As a dog rescue, SHDR receives zero government funding, and relies soley on adoption fees and donations to fund our rescue efforts. A large number of dogs we take in require complete vetting at minimum, including spay/neuter and vaccinations, and/or have expensive health issues. At any given time, we normally have at least a handful of dogs waiting to undergo surgery, as well. Adoption fees do not begin to cover the vetting that many of our dogs require before adoption. Every dollar received helps the rescue continue to save the lives of dogs in need.
We can accept cash, check, Venmo, CashApp, PayPal, Apple Pay, and other donation methods. Your donation is tax deductible.

** Consider us for "In lieu of flowers" donations for a loved one's passing who was an animal lover and champion. We create a link to share with the loved one's name, picture, and some information and ways to donate in their memory. We send the family all of the donation info after the fact. **
