ADOPT A DOG OR CAT FROM LAST DAY DOG RESCUE

Thank you for visiting Last Day Dog Rescue! We are a 501(c)(3) no-kill organization based in Livonia, with a network of foster homes spanning across Michigan. Our mission is simple: saving animals. Since 2007, we have rescued thousands of dogs and cats, providing them with safety, essential medical care, and unconditional love. While we happily welcome healthy puppies and dogs, our primary focus is on saving those who wouldn’t make it without our help. We were founded on the belief that all life is precious, regardless of breed, appearance, or age. Please consider adopting one of our wonderful dogs, cats, puppies, or kittens today. Read more about our organization here.

I love my people and want nothing more than to cuddle up and...read more about Daya - Vq Litter

Seniors For Seniors

Did you know that Last Day Dog Rescue has a "Seniors For Seniors" program? Animal lovers 65 years and over can adopt a select senior dog for only $100! Our senior dogs included in this program are listed on our Seniors For Seniors page. These very special dogs have won the hearts of our fosters and volunteers and we are sure they will win yours over, too!

As with all our dogs, we will also take our animals back in the event of an emergency or illness. So please tell all your senior friends! There is no reason to live alone without the love and devotion of a furever friend.
