About The Perfect Dog
The Perfect Dog is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) dog rescue based in Milpitas, California that focuses on saving dogs at risk of euthanasia from area shelters.

The rescue emphasizes helping dogs with special medical or behavioral needs and works through community partnerships and events to fund veterinary care and placements. The group operates primarily via volunteers and foster homes and publicly solicits donations, volunteers, and foster placements to sustain its work.
