Your support of Harley’s Dream helps us raise awareness and educate the public about the cruelty of commercial dog breeding facilities, commonly known as puppy mills. Through education, outreach, and advocacy, we work to bring an end to this inhumane industry and create a better future for dogs everywhere.
Your generosity also supports our Harley’s House of Dreams program, through which we rescue vulnerable senior dogs, many facing euthanasia, and provide them with the veterinary care, love, and comfort they desperately need. We then help these precious dogs find loving forever homes where they can enjoy their golden years surrounded by kindness and compassion.
Harley's Dream was established in 2016 in honor of Harley, a senior one-eyed puppy mill survivor who became the face and voice of the puppy mill dogs, earning the distinction of being the 2015 American Hero Dog for his work. Our mission is to create awareness and educate the public about the cruel commercial dog breeding industry (also known as puppy mills) and to rescue and rehome senior dogs in need.
We believe that a grassroots approach by large groups of concerned citizens is the most effective way to bring about change. Our focus is to encourage advocacy by providing the tools necessary to educate children and adults alike.
Harley’s Dream is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in honor of Harley, a tiny Chihuahua who spent the first ten years of his life suffering in a puppy mill. Despite years of neglect and abuse, Harley became a powerful symbol of hope and resilience, inspiring a movement dedicated to ending the cruelty of commercial dog breeding.
Following Harley’s passing in March 2016, his legacy continued through Harley’s Dream, an organization committed to creating lasting change through awareness, education, and advocacy. Our mission is to educate the public about the realities of puppy mills, encourage responsible pet adoption, and support legislation that will help end the puppy-mill-to-pet-store pipeline.
Recognizing the tremendous need to help older dogs who are often overlooked or abandoned, Harley’s Dream expanded its mission to include Harley’s House of Dreams, a rescue program dedicated to saving senior dogs, many of whom face euthanasia in shelters. Through this program, we provide essential veterinary care, loving foster homes, and the opportunity for these precious dogs to spend their remaining years surrounded by comfort, kindness, and love.
Through our educational campaigns, legislative outreach, and rescue efforts, Harley’s Dream continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of dogs across the country.
Harley may have been just one little dog, but his dream of a world without puppy mills lives on through every life we touch and every dog we save.
