We focus on the dogs most in need of saving - those abandoned by their families, the strays, the starving, the injured, the sick, and those in immediate need of help. We take them in, rehabilitate them, and provide housing, vetting, training, and extra doses of love. Whether at our physical site in Stamford, CT, or placed with one of our fosters, every dog we commit to is guaranteed love and a beautiful life with the forever family they so deserve. Since opening its doors in June of 2020, Lucky Dog Refuge has placed over 850 dogs and cats in need in happy, forever homes.

Our formula for impact focuses on children's academic success, good character, citizenship, and healthy lifestyles.
