Mission Statement
Our goal is to help any abandoned, mistreated, or abused dog find the best possible home in the DC area while increasing the accessibility of responsible dog rescue in our community. We strive to achieve this goal with compassion, transparency, and a strong sense of responsibility to our dogs, applicants, volunteers, foster families, and supporters.
About This Cause
The Little Black Dog is a small, foster-based dog rescue finding homes for TX dogs in the DMV area while increasing the accessibility of dog rescue work in our community. Here are the top 4 things you should know about TLBD: 1. TLBD was started by two people (Sarah and Sally) who LOVED rescue work but didn't like how it was being done in the DC area. We respond to every email, application, phone call and request to make sure each person we interact with feels heard, valued, and welcomed regardless of identity or demographic. 2. We have an outstanding team solely dedicated to branding and marketing that has helped us create a unique, and authentic voice in this space. As you can tell from our top-notch website and social profiles, this is something that allows us to not only stand out from the multitude of DC rescues but also attract a different demographic from the average rescue group. 3. Our adoptions team isn't looking for the traditional stay-at-home family with a fenced-in backyard - we're looking for adopters who will go above and beyond for their dog. Again, this is allowing us to expand the reach of responsible dog rescue and diversify our supporter base. 4. We're a dog rescue, running on business principles. The non-profit world is tough. We know that to create a sustainable organization, we need to move beyond the traditional rescue group model of relying on adoption fees and donations. We're dedicated to expanding our programming and trying new and innovative practices like educational fundraising programs for students, sponsored transports, and pushing our partnerships beyond the traditional boring transactional stuff. TLBD is open to working with any individual, organization, business, or company to build out effective, engaging, and exciting volunteer programing!
