Testimonials

"GoodDogz.org has been a very positive force for animal rescue in Northern Virgina. The Reston Pet Fiesta has given our group wonderful exposure each year and has brought a lot of people out to see rescue dogs. We have also referred many adopters and potential adopters to the GoodDogz.org website for links to valuable resources. Keep up the good work!"  Pam McAlwee, Founder, Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation
