About this shelter

Mutts and Runts Rescue in Bakersfield, CA

I established Mutts and Runts Rescue upon relocating to Bakersfield, California, after noticing the significant overpopulation of stray dogs in the area. My goal was to help these animals in need, initially focusing on saving one dog at a time. However, it quickly became apparent that I could assist multiple dogs simultaneously. I believe that dogs are family members, sentient beings, and gifts from a higher power, often providing emotional support and companionship to people.
