Dogs in Danger
DogsInDanger.com is a nonprofit national shelter outreach program at the forefront of a grassroots movement trying to help shelters save the lives of millions of innocent dogs. Dogsindanger.com works with more than 120 shelters nationwide that destroy dogs. How much time the dogs get before death varies from state to state. The site aims to save their lives by offering them for adoption. The adoption service is free both for shelters and people looking for pets, allowing users to search by location, breed or time until death.

Pilots-N-Paws
Pilots-N-Paws originated in 2008 when a small group of people came together to help the thousands of animals in shelters and rescues across the United States. Often the animals coming into rescue are required to be transported long distances from the rescue point. Pilots-N-Paws is comprised of both individuals involved in rescue and pilots willing to volunteer their time to help transport some of these animals in need.

AnimalShelter.org
AnimalShelter.org was created in an effort to place homeless animals throughout the United States. These animals are often located in one of thousands of animal shelters and rescue's throughout the Country which offer a temporary placement while a loving family is found. At the AnimalShelter.org we provide a database of animals which will allow you to search for your next pet based on animal type, breed, size, gender and location.

Help Spare Shelter Dogs From the Winter Chill
Send us your old sweaters and we will recycle them and distribute them to animal shelters all over the US so that dogs just like the ones we’ve already helped don't have to suffer through the cold winter (the smaller the better). If you dig around your closet you can find a sweater or two that you never plan on wearing again. Thank you for your help!
