Tired Dog Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal rescue organization based in Gulfport, Mississippi. The organization is dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming abandoned, surrendered, and abused dogs—often taking in strays, hard-to-place animals, and providing hospice care for senior or terminally ill pets.

Operating entirely as a foster-based rescue rather than a traditional shelter facility, the organization places its rescued dogs in domestic home environments to allow them to decompress and to carefully assess their unique needs. Tired Dog Rescue provides necessary veterinary care, including vaccinations and mandatory spay/neuter surgeries, and is funded entirely through direct public donations and standard adoption fees. They place fully vetted dogs into permanent homes following comprehensive application reviews and strict mandatory home visits.

Animals over profits: Unlike typical corporate chains, we are completely against selling animals — always, now, and forever.

You choose where 25% of the earnings goes: We believe in full transparency — we calculate this 25% before paying for any executive salaries or business overhead. By skipping the fancy corporate costs, we ensure the money actually lands where it belongs: with the animals.
