Our Mission
We believe every dog deserves a fair shake at a loving home, and we aim to make a difference — one dog at a time!
Become a Foster
As a foster-based rescue, every dog’s journey from intake to adoption happens in the homes of everyday people united by a shared passion for saving lives. Fostering isn’t always easy, but it is always rewarding — and our community is here to support you every step of the way.
Dog Gone Seattle is the largest foster-based rescue in the Pacific Northwest, with 400 active foster families and more than 125 dogs in rescue at any given time. Our fosters are supported by a small army of volunteers and dedicated, knowledgeable core team — always available to connect and collaborate. Working together, we transform the lives of deserving dogs and the families they complete.
