Waggin’ Trails Rescue
$4,505 raised from 58 donations
How We Impact the Community
We transport at-risk dogs from overcrowded California shelters to no-kill rescue partners—giving them a second chance at life, and a shot at love. We are run by passionate volunteers, fueled by donations, and powered by compassion. We’re the link between shelters full of promise and rescue groups ready to help.
We have traveled more than 35,000 miles to save over 200 dogs this year. That means we’ve provided a community addition of more than 200 wagging tails, of second chances, and of just as many families made whole.
Our services provide relief for overburdened shelters, deliver joy and companionship to adoptive families, and encourage community through teamwork and advocacy. Your support makes rescue possible.

Waggin Trails is an invaluable community partner. Their rescue transport has helped our overburdened shelter save hundreds of lives.
