Our mission	Wags and Walks is a non-profit organization whose primary mission to match people with dogs that need a home and to save dogs lives on death row.

Opportunities	Transportation Team Wags and Walks visits high kill shelters in and around Los Angeles multiple times a week. We often need help transferring multiple dogs from the shelters, to and from our vets, fosters, etc. If you join our transportation team, you will be the reason some of our pups with medical needs will get the care they deserve! Occasional, Weekly, Monthly 55+, Adults Individuals Indoor, Outdoor Formal Weekdays, Weekends Foster Depending on what kind of dog you are comfortable with (large dog, small dog, puppy, senior), we will fit you with the perfect dog for you to foster! During the time that you are fostering, all we ask is that you care for your foster dog and provide him/her with love and comfort during their transition from shelter to home. The benefits of fostering are endless, but according to our current fosters the best part is knowing that you played a crucial role in saving a life! One-time, Weekly 55+, Adults, Child with Adult Individuals, Families Indoor, Outdoor Formal Weekdays, Evenings, Weekends Fundraising Volunteer If you are interested in helping us reach out to corporations, local businesses, and anywhere and everywhere in between, we appreciate all of the help that we can get.

How you help	Wags & Walks’ success can be credited to a team of dog-loving, loyal and intelligent people. Our team drives hundreds of miles each week and spends hundreds of hours to save as many wonderful dogs as we can. With your help, we can save so many more.

About us	Wags & Walks was founded in 2011 by Lesley Brog, the daughter of a veterinarian, who was devastated by the number of sweet and healthy dogs being euthanized due to overcrowding in LA shelters. Wags & Walks’ main goal when founded was to break the stigma that rescue dogs are damaged goods and to help decrease the number of dogs euthanized in local shelters by showing the community that you can find wonderful dogs of all breeds and sizes through rescue. In 2018, Wags & Walks saved nearly 1,200 dogs.
