1. Spay and neuter your pets.
   An unspayed female dog, her mate and all of their puppies, if none are ever neutered or spayed, add up to:
   1 year: 16
   2 years: 128
   3 years: 512
   4 years: 2,048
   5 years: 12,288
   6 years: 67,000 dogs !!!
   There aren't enough good homes for all of these dogs.
2. Make a donation.
   Thousands of dogs are euthanized each year because of lack of funds to support them. These dogs deserve to live out their natural lives. A small contribution can make a BIG difference.
3. Take action.
   If you have ever heard an accurate description of what happens to an animal when it is gassed to death or killed by heart prick, you know just how inhumane this practice is. Help us to outlaw these methods of killing dogs by contacting your state's legislature. Click here to get involved.
4. Educate others.
   Tell your friends and family that you support Dogs on Death Row and tell them why it's important to get involved.

Driven by a deep passion for animals, Jodie Richers founded Dogs on Death Row in 2007. Having worked in the nonprofit arena for many years as a director for One Child At A Time, an international aid and adoption organization, and also as a board member for Children's Charities of America, Jodie posesses a skill set ideal for leveraging dollars into the most efficient action possible to save the greatest number of dogs.

Jodie is tireless in her efforts to rescue, rehabilitate, and find homes for unwanted dogs everywhere. She is also committed to educating the public about the inhumane nature of gassing and heart prick as a means of killing animals.

Although Jodie is the heart of DODR, many people contribute their time, talent, and treasure to keep us going. We hope that you, too, will become a valued DODR supporter and friend.
