Is Today My Day Rescue (ITMD) was formed by a group of dog-loving individuals in July of 2017. ITMD is a licenced, 501c3, non-profit dog rescue that strives to help homeless dogs find permanent placement in adoptive homes. We are a foster-based rescue with most of our fosters within an hour of St. Louis, MO.
Our primary service area is rural south central Missouri. After two major animal shelters/rescues in the area permanently shut their doors, resources for dogs in need in this area were few and far between. It is an area with significant canine overpopulation and few resources. We work with individuals from this area to rehome personal dogs and help place stray dogs. Our community outreach includes altering family pets to reduce the overall dog population in the area as well as providing preventative care and dog food for families in need.
While our focus is rural south central Missouri, we will help any dog we can. Our dogs come from a variety of circumstances, including strays, owner relinquishes, breeder releases, animal control facilities, and dogs at risk of euthanasia.

With heavy hearts we are so very sad to say that our tiny poodles did not survive their Parvo infection. They were just too tiny and did not have the strength or reserve to fight such a terrible virus. They were adult dogs who were owner surrenders to Animal Control.
Dog rescue is often filled with big highs and big lows. Today has been a day of overwhelming happiness and overwhelming sadness. We are so happy to report that both Jesse and Hank were discharged from the hospital today and are settled into their foster home to continue their recovery
Arizona is in the zone! If you are looking for a chill girl, look no further. My favorite things are sitting in the yard, playing with my siblings, and snuggling. My foster mom says I am pretty smart! Compared to my brothers, I am more relaxed. I'm great with kids
