The Street Dog Project

Dauntless Rescue Inc is a non-profit 501(c)3, DBA The Street Dog Project that focuses primarily on rescuing dogs directly from the streets of Dallas, TX.

The Street Dog Project is comprised of a small group of volunteers who are passionate about saving street dogs. Our goal is to reduce the street dog population through rescue, education and outreach.

Since 2016 we've rescued over 1,000 dogs from the streets and full shelters and found them loving homes. We rely on our team members, neighborhood communities and our social media community for support to help us continue to bring awareness to the stray, abused, neglected, and homeless dogs in the Dallas area.

Sometimes Good Samaritans notify us about dogs that need to be rescued, and other times we find these dogs on our own. In most cases, they are hurt, malnourished, scared, or in danger of being shot, hit by a car or attacked by a predator. These search and rescue missions can take days, weeks, or even months but our team never gives up on a dog.

Upon rescue, dogs are taken straight to the vet, so they can be scanned for a microchip and a vet can attend to any emergency medical needs. Life on the streets is tough so a lot of the dogs we take in have medical needs that go beyond the norm. Heart-worm, mange, leg and eye injuries are some of the most common medical conditions we encounter.

Dallas has thousands of street dogs and our goal is to save as many as possible. We hope to raise awareness for the street dogs who just need a chance. It's incredibly rewarding seeing a scared/injured street dog blossom into a happy, beloved family member!

Our Needs

Our biggest needs are donations and foster homes. We take in a lot of dogs with extensive medical needs and that adds up quickly! We are a foster-based organization so the number of fosters directly influences how many lives we can save! We hope more people will try fostering at least once in their life!
