Lucky 7 Dog Rescue, located in Green Bay, Wisconsin was started in October 2015 with just a few foster homes and no storage space for supplies. With the support of their volunteers behind them, they have added a rescue location where they hold fundraising events and community outreach programs and where their family and friends fill in to make sure the community has a place to go when they need help.

Lucky Dog Rescue has been helping homeless and unwanted dogs in Maricopa county since 2004. As a strictly foster based organization we are a bit different from a shelter.

We have a trainer that works with our dogs should they require a little extra help. We place over 645 dogs a year into new home.
