HOPE2K9 FOUNDATION

Hope2K9 Foundation, formerly Hope2K9 Rescue, began as the non-profit dog rescue associated with Home2K9 Dog Training. The two companies have since merged into one, under the leadership of founder Cameron Thompsen, to provide rescue and education services – as well as dog training – with the primary goal of keeping as many dogs in their homes as possible by empowering frustrated dog owners with the tools and knowledge they need to problem solve their issues. 

Hope2K9 Foundation now proudly bills themselves as the “anti-rescue rescue,” which is a nod to their primary goal of stopping the influx of dogs coming into the rescue system to begin with. By helping dog owners overcome their biggest frustrations via education and support, Hope2K9 can slow down rescue intake numbers and also provide dog owners with strategies they’ll be able to use for the rest of their lives. 

Hope2K9 had two main objectives with their rescue site: Showcase the fully trained dogs they have available for adoption, and also make it as easy as possible for visitors to support them. That meant we needed to make financial donations EASY and QUICK. We also created an Amazon Wish List so supporters could track and purchase supplies for the organization (and also make sure they didn’t get things they didn’t need, or too much of an item). 

We also created a print-on-demand clothing and accessory line called the Dog Nerd Cult for the die hard fans, which has been a huge hit with all proceeds benefiting the foundation.
