| Primary Exempt Purpose | DC Shiba Inu Rescue (DC SIR) is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. DC SIR is a group of dedicated volunteers whose mission is to rescue, foster, vet and train neglected, homeless, abandoned, and stray Shiba Inus. It also works with owner surrenders to help keep Shibas in their current home or to foster and rehome via its extensive adoption process. DC SIR is committed to prioritizing the intake and placement of Shiba Inus in the immediate DC metropolitan area and may assist in the rescue effort for Shiba Inus and mixed breeds across the east coast as circumstances allow. DC SIR is a community-oriented rescue which strives to educate pet owners about positive behavior training, healthy nutrition and alternative health care, primitive breed temperament, and the importance of spaying/neutering. | PrimaryExemptPurposeTxt |

| Program Service 1: Rescue, Rehabilitation, and Integrative Wellness Description: DC Shiba Inu Rescue saves Shiba Inus from puppy mills, shelters, owner surrenders, and abandonment. Each dog receives individualized care to restore optimal health and prepare them for adoption. In 2024, we rescued a significant number of dogs from commercial breeding facilities, many of whom required extensive dental procedures due to years of neglect. Our integrative wellness program includes advanced modalities such as photobiomodulation, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, nano hydrotherapy, and gut microbiome sequencing. All dogs are supported with species-appropriate, nutrient-dense diets to promote long-term vitality. | $0 | $104,000 |
| Program Service 2: Community Education and Outreach Description: DC SIR provides free online and local resources for self-placement, dog care, raw nutrition, and responsible pet ownership. Our team makes weekly calls to the owners of dogs our fans never see. We provide resources, guidance, and in some cases supplies to help people keep their pets. | $0 | $2,500 |
| Program Service 3: Adoption, Education, and Post-Adoption Support Description: DC Shiba Inu Rescue placed rescued dogs into permanent adoptive homes through a thorough screening process, including applications, interviews, and home checks. Every adoption includes a legally binding contract to ensure the long-term welfare of the dog. We offer ongoing support through an online adopter community, where we provide education on breed-specific behavior, raw feeding, and holistic lifelong care. This post-adoption education helps reduce returns and improves outcomes for both adopters and animals. In addition to online resources, we host occasional in-person meetups to foster connection and community among adopters | $0 | $2,500 |
