  2. Providing them life-altering or life-saving veterinary care such as orthopedic surgery/braces, oncology, dermatology, eye care specialty, cardiology and general care as well as behavioral training.

  3. Increased costs of veterinary care and the more extreme needs of the dogs in our care limited our abilities but we provided the best care for those rescued.

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $163k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
