Looked at their 990

They seem kinda lame and borderline scammy. Pulled in 250kish and spent 45k buying kennel space from Trikos (their government contract organization they own) and 21k on advertising.

Almost 50% of their dog expenditure went to ads. For who knows what. Probably selling more dogs from Trikos to the police. How many dogs are they housing for that 45k? No one knows.

Their mission statement says more poo poo about "education" and "awareness" ( charity buzz words for bull poo poo) than rehabbing dogs and giving them a baller rear end life. If you aren't adopting them out, the community doesn't need educated about how cool dogges are. They already know.

I'd totally give cash to the Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctuary because drat those people give old dogs a good rear end life and keep you filled in with pictures on Facebook. They are pretty famous now so might not need it.

That and the extraneous apostrophes on dogs and warriors ( it's not dog's and warrior's unless it's possessive dammit)

Aww, and I had such high hopes for them :(

Dogs on Deployment looks good, and their financials are pretty clean.

I can't find the one I was thinking of. :(

Old Friends is a great one, though! They recently had to move their facility to a new location, so I'm sure they have all kinds of new expenses cropping up.

I'd go along with Old Friends. :3:
