Live shelter-to-rescue matching

Everysecondcounts.

A fast, high-signal matching platform that gets urgent dogs in front of the right rescue partners — before the clock runs out.

The mission

“Thousands of healthy, adoptable dogs are euthanized every year — not for lack of love, but for lack of a fast enough handoff.”

How it works

Built for the
handoff moment.

Three moves. No spreadsheets, no phone tag — just the dog, the details, and the rescue most likely to say yes.

Step 01

Intake

Shelters publish the essential context: behavior notes, timeline, size, medical flags, and transfer constraints.

Step 02

Match

DOGSRUN compares each case against active rescue criteria and highlights the organizations most likely to say yes.

Step 03

Move

Rescues receive a focused alert with one-click response links so urgent dogs can get out faster.

Pick your side

Two doors. Same mission.

For shelters

Publish the case once. Reach the rescues that fit.

List urgent dogs, capture the details rescues need, and see who has responded — without managing another spreadsheet.

Register shelter

For rescues

Set your criteria. Get the dogs you can actually pull.

Define geography, breed focus, weight, age, and capacity once. Receive urgent alerts that respect your mission and your limits.
