My Dog Is My Home

Description: 

My Dog is My Home is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the human-animal bond in circumstances of homelessness. Due to a general "no pets allowed" rule, homeless people are often faced with the choice of leaving their companion animals to seek shelter or staying with their companion animals on the streets. We don't believe this is an ultimatum anyone should have to face. 

OUR MISSION

To increase shelter and housing access for homeless people and animals who find a home in each other despite having little else.

 

OUR VISION

To establish a right to shelter and housing that recognizes companion animals as family.

 

OUR PHILOSOPHY

We believe in the dignity and worth of all animals--both human and non-human--and that every animal has the right to live with whom they choose, where they choose.
