Every Dog Counts Rescue

Every Dog Counts Rescue We're an all-volunteer, all-breed dog rescue specializing in rehabilitating sick and injured dogs. And injured and sick dogs get whatever they need.

Every Dog Counts Rescue is a non-profit (501c3), all-volunteer dog rescue, founded to save the lives of homeless dogs in the Midwest. Our focus is on dogs with special medical needs - the injured, sick, orphaned, or elderly - who often will not make it out of shelters without rescue assistance. If they are still able to enjoy life, we want to give them that chance. We believe that foster dogs are

not 2nd class citizens, so they get the same veterinary care we would seek for our own dogs, no matter the cost. Senior dogs all receive complete dental care and wellness screening. Orthopedic and neurologic surgeries typically cost $1000-3500, so it certainly gets expensive! We are forever grateful to our supporters and Facebook Friends, who make our work possible! THANK YOU!!!!! We are also eternally grateful to our OUTSTANDING veterinarians. We are ALWAYS in need of volunteer help... driving to/from vet appointments, driving transports on Friday and Saturdays, fosters, adoption event assistants, fundraising partners, etc. If you're interested in joining us in our mission to save doggies-in-need, please let us know!! EDCR is an Official Partner Rescue of Indy Pit Crew: www.indypitcrew.org

“You’re my boy, Blue!” No, but seriously. Blue needs to be your boy. 🐾

Blue is an 8 year old, 21 lbs beagle boy who was an owner surrender. 😔 Understandably he doesn’t really love being left alone so a home with another pet or with a person who works from home would be amazing.

He loves car rides, and all the love and attention he can get - and who wouldn’t want to snug 🥰 this cute dude?!

If you think you’re the right fit for “our boy” Blue, please submit an application at EDCR.org.

Sweet little Mellow has the perfect name because he’s just a mellow little senior 👴🏼 dude!

Mellow was adopted out from us a couple of years ago but returned recently because his person passed away. 😔

Aside from limited appetite, this 13 year old beef cake is transitioning OK. He would do best in a house where folks love to do walkies as much as he does, and maybe with another small dog as a companion. He would do well as an only dog too!

If you’re interested in adding Mellow to your pack, be sure to submit an application at EDCR.org.

Oh my goodness friends, we have been TOTALLY dropping the ball on our social media posting. THANK YOU for your continued support as we (quietly) kept chugging along with our work. We promise we will be better! To kick us off...

Last fall we posted a desperate plea for little Megan, who needed a very special home due to her FeLV status. That post connected us to an amazing adopter, whose other kitty was also FeLV+... but she was several states away. 😕

Amazingly, we have a wonderful friend who doesn't mind a roadtrip... and before you know it, Tony Donohue had her packed up and was off! And since then Megan has been living her best life with her angel of a momma, Rylee Strah. 🥰🥰

Cheers to 2nd chances and to all the amazing people we've met through rescue! We are eternally grateful for your continued support. 😘

We hope to see lots of you & your sweet furkids at the Easter Begg Hunt!

Sweet Jameson is ready to find his forever home!
When we pulled this boy from a shelter they told us he was perfection wrapped in fur, and they weren't kidding! We think he's about 8y and a healthy boy. He's lovingly became known as "Potato" at his foster home, because he literally lives to snuggle! If you want to go for a walk, he will join you for a mosey... but he'd really prefer to snuggle on the couch.

He doesn't mind other dogs but would be fine without fursiblings. He wants human laps. LOL He is housetrained and all around just delightful. He's about 30 lb. and he's neutered, microchipped, UTD on vaccines, and had a recent dental cleaning. 😍

Apply to adopt Jameson at www.edcr.org.

Jane was an amazing, inspiring, huge-hearted gift to the world. We wanted to share the news of her heartbreaking passing, as we know many of you have enjoyed seeing her artists’ work in the auction she planned for us each year. She will be profoundly missed. 💔

Updates from EDCR alum keep us going!

Sweet Lud, now Bryan, came into EDCR as a very small little guy, too young to be away from his mama, but no one tell him that! He was a very spunky, goofy boy and according to his forever mama, that hasn’t changed.

Bry’s forever mama says he loves two things—tennis balls and his brother Norman. 🥰 He and Norman even help other pups by donating blood!

Bryan has made an impact not only on his people, but other humans and pups. He spent his gotcha day doing whole house zoomies, parkouring off the couch and entertaining the neighbors with his tales of mischief. 😆

Thank you so much for letting us be a small part of your journey, special boy! 🐾 Happy tails!
