What Doberman Pinscher Rescue does
Mission
Doberman Pinscher Rescue exists solely to rescue, rehabilitate, care for and place into loving homes the doberman pinscher and other canine breeds that have been abandoned, abused, lost, or found in other unfortunate circumstances. Dogs that are not adoptable due to advanced age, challenging behavior, medical, or other issues are given a permanent home in the organization's sanctuary property in fillmore, california.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
The organization rescues 250 to 500 dogs each year. The dogs are acquired from shelters, incapable owners, natural disasters, or directly from abusive situations. They are sometimes picked up from alongside a highway. The dogs are provided with immediate veterinary care when needed and are fed, housed, and cared for by the organization until they can be placed into loving homes. Dogs who cannot be placed due to advanced age, behavorial, medical, or other issues are given a lifetime home in the organizations sanctuary. The organizations executive director volunteers her time, leadership, and fundraising talents to the organization. Many individuals also volunteer their time and talent to the organizations operations and to the care of the dogs.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $331k to $586k (+77%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
100% of DOBERMAN PINSCHER RESCUE’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (86% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 3 funders to 10 funders, grant income rose $46k → $128k.
8 of 17 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 50% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of DOBERMAN PINSCHER RESCUE’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
DOBERMAN PINSCHER RESCUE has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 30% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
64% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund DOBERMAN PINSCHER RESCUE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 72% · 2018 47% · 2019 40% · 2020 31% · 2021 28% · 2022 33% · 2023 23% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
44% of DOBERMAN PINSCHER RESCUE's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 59% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
50% of DOBERMAN PINSCHER RESCUE's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $402k that is directly attributable, 70% of it comes from California funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $406k arriving through sponsors registered in 8 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
