OPCA Shelter Network Alliance Inc

Hope for better tomorrows

Mission

At OPCA, we are a 501(c)(3) all-volunteer nonprofit animal welfare organization committed to making a profound impact on the lives of poodles and poodle-mixes or type in need. Our mission is clear and unwavering: We specialize in offering hope for better tomorrows to poodles in our direct care, while extending a helping hand to numerous rescues through support services and funding. We are equally dedicated to holding ourselves and other organizations accountable for the welfare of these dogs. Join us in our mission to offer hope for better tomorrows to poodles and support rescues in their mission to save countless lives while ensuring accountability throughout the animal welfare landscape. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the world of animal welfare.

Notes from the nonprofit

Since its beginning, OPCA has promoted and/or networked more than 58,000 shelter poodles & poodle-mixes. In concert with the efforts of others, more than 9,000 poodles & poodle-mixes that appear on and/or networked via OPCA Shelter Network Alliance are adopted or rescued annually. Many of these shelter poodles may have special needs or may be facing their final hours, some are puppies and some are seniors but all, healthy or not, need advocates to speak for them. By working with shelters and the rescue community, we try to give these helpless shelter poodles a voice … a way to be found, rehabilitated, adopted or rescued, and for many this helps prevent them from being euthanized. Our advocacy efforts of saving shelter poodles’ lives, combined with our promotion of the nonprofit organizations we support and sharing shelter poodles & poodle-mixes from shelter, networking, volunteer and rescue organizations' sites have given thousands of shelter poodles HOPE for better tomorrows.
