Our Mission

More than a shelter. We are a community of hope.

Doggy Dog World Rescue was founded by Shelley Osgood, owner and operator of Doggy Dog World Grooming in Littleton, Colorado. Since 2008, we've been rescuing dogs from unsafe conditions and placing them in loving forever homes.

Every dog in our care lives in a real foster home — never a kennel. Our fosters provide food, shelter, and rehabilitation so each dog is truly adoption-ready.

  • 100% foster-based — every dog lives in a real home
  • Free training session with every adoption via Oh My Dog Training
  • Adoption events at PetSmart — meet us in person!
  • Non-profit 501(c)(3) organization since 2008
