Rescue. Support. Rehome.

Get involved

Your time, your home, your kindness can change a life.

Become a foster

Tell us about your home, current pets, schedule, and the kinds of dogs you feel prepared to support. Be honest about your limits and availability so we can work toward an appropriate match. Read our detailed foster FAQ and apply through the home page.

Volunteer your skills

Help with events, transportation, home checks, fundraising, photography, social media, administration, or dog care. Use the volunteer application to share your interests, experience, and availability. Activities depend on current rescue needs and coordination with our team.

Organize a dog food drive

Invite friends, relatives, coworkers, or community groups to collect dog food and supplies for RSR Legacy. Contact us before arranging a collection so we can discuss current needs and coordinate pickup of multiple donations. Individual drop-offs in the Poway area can be arranged privately.

Give once or monthly

Our secure Zeffy donation campaign accepts one-time gifts and recurring monthly support. Gifts help cover food, supplies, veterinary care, transport, and foster placement. To give by check, contact us for mailing instructions.
