The McDonough Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to saving dogs from overcrowded shelters in Southern California. We fight for the forgotten, the overlooked, and the at-risk. These dogs may be out of time - but they’re not out of hope.
Founded in February 2024, our mission is simple: to give as many dogs as we can a chance at a good life and unconditional love. We rescue because they deserve more than a cage and a countdown - they deserve a future. None of this work is possible without the support of the community. We can't thank you all enough.
We're all in this together, and we will never, ever give up. Thank you for joining us in the fight to save dogs' lives, before it's too late.
