Northern California Family Dog Rescue in San Francisco, CA

Family Dog Rescue was established in January 2010 by individuals with extensive experience in various rescue and shelter organizations. A key aspect of our mission is to assist families with children in adopting dogs, rather than purchasing from breeders, as these families frequently encounter challenges when trying to adopt from municipal shelters due to specific restrictions. We rescue a diverse range of dogs, including bully breeds, and prioritize providing them with necessary veterinary care. Additionally, we often take in dogs with medical issues, those that are deaf, or others that may be considered "less than perfect."
