Stars and Stripes Dog Rescue

Stars and Stripes Dog Rescue EIN # 88-0888840 We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. We are grassroots, boots-on-the-ground, shelter less, foster-based and volunteer-powered organization.

The mission of Stars and Stripes Rescue and Training Center is to rescue at risk shelter dogs and to train them to become the highest quality service dogs to military veterans suffering with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. We will rescue dogs from Northern California high-kill animal shelters. We will also network with local rescue/shelters that might have a need to transfer dogs out of their faci

lity. We also provide free medical support for dogs of service members who are involved with Service Dog programs. We also find temporary homes for their dogs while they attend those several month-long programs. Knowing their dogs are safe and well cared for while they are away helps ensure those service members can successfully complete the programs. Dogs will complete the Canine Good Citizen™ Program and must pass the CGC Test. They will then move on to Service Dog training with the focus on PSTD skills. Once the dogs pass their “Support Dog” certification training, they will be adopted out to a fully screened applicant at no cost to them or their family. We also provide temporary housing and care (including veterinary support) for the dogs of military veterans while they participate in health care programs.

Huge Thanks to Orangevale Dairy Queen!!

We are beyond grateful to Caroline and her amazing team at Orangevale Dairy Queen for running a Roundup Campaign in January to support our mission! Because of their generosity - and the kindness of everyone who rounded up their purchases - we received a generous donation that will go directly toward vaccinating dogs of homeless and low-income veterans.

Caroline and her team continuously show up for our community, and we can’t thank them enough for their support! Your dedication makes a real difference in the lives of both veterans and their four-legged companions.

Thank you, OV Dairy Queen, for helping us save lives - one dog and one veteran at a time!
