Rural Dog Rescue is looking for volunteers to produce short videos of our adoptable rescue pups to help them find homes!
Our dogs' online profiles are the primary channel for potential adopters/fosters to learn about their personalities and training, and videos go a long way. We need volunteers to capture video footage of our dogs showing off their training skills and at our adoption events.
Volunteers would swing by one of our adoption events 1-2 times a month to film footage of our adorable pups. Our adoption events are from 12-3pm on Saturdays and 12-2pm on Sundays at Howl to the Chief, 733 8th St SE.
Prior experience with video editing preferred. Volunteers will need to supply their own gear and editing software.
Rural Dog Rescue rescues dogs from high-kill shelters and finds them homes in the DMV area. We focus our efforts on shelters that euthanize over 70% of dogs or euthanize within 72 hours, with a special commitment to saving the "underdogs": animals that are often overlooked because of sickness, seniority, injury or their perceived breed. We are 100% volunteer-based and have placed upwards of 1,000 dogs in forever homes!

Mission Statement
Forever true to "the Underdog," Rural Dog Rescue is dedicated to saving the lives of high risk dogs in economically challenged, high-kill shelters in rural areas -- dogs that are often overlooked for adoption or rescue.
Description
Rural Dog Rescue was founded in 2011. We are based in Washington, D.C., and serve communities in D.C., Maryland, and northern Virginia.
We work with several high-kill shelters (who either euthanize dogs in 72 hours or whose kill rate is 70% or higher) in rural areas of North Carolina.
We focus on efforts on shelters that euthanize over 70% of dogs or euthanize in 72 hours, and we rescue a range of breeds and sizes. Our commitment is to rescuing the "underdogs" - dogs that are often overlooked in shelters because they are dark-colored, hounds, sick, injured, or senior.
To date, RDR has placed more than 2,000 dogs in forever homes.
