Our Mission
Stinky Paws is a small, husband-and-wife team dog rescue specializing in high-need cases. Inspired by a deep love for pups that shelters often overlook, we step in to provide medical rehab, love, and a true second chance for every dog that enters our care.
A Legacy of Love
Stinky Paws began in a small, San Diego home with one very sick foster dog. Founded by a husband-and-wife duo, we realized that the dogs most in need—the seniors, the medically fragile, and the long-stay shelter residents—were the ones being left behind. What started as a personal mission to save just one life has grown into a collection of second chances. Every Stinky Paw that enters our care receives the dedicated time, medical attention, and love required to transition from a list to a life of joy.

Our dream started like it does for other dog lovers - with our own pack. All were adopted from local shelters and now live out their luxurious golden years on pillows and soft blankets.
