Why the Rescue Started
Why the Rescue Started
Mission Mutt Dog Rescue was founded by Madison Kossow
After graduating from high school and moving to Tallahassee to attend Florida State University, I decided to establish my non-profit, Mission Mutt Dog Rescue. Drawing from years of volunteering and fostering with a local rescue in South Florida, I felt compelled to create a foster-based organization with a focus on rescuing dogs from kill shelters. Every year, countless dogs and puppies face euthanasia due to overcrowding—a heartbreaking reality I aim to combat.
With Mission Mutt Dog Rescue, my goal is to rescue and find homes for as many dogs as our resources allow, one dog at a time.

Featured in AWI Quarterly – Winter 2025
I’m incredibly honored to share that I was featured in the AWI Quarterly Winter 2025 edition in an article titled “Madison’s Mission: No Mutt Left Behind.” The piece highlights my journey, Madison Kossow, and the founding of Mission Mutt Dog Rescue, a foster-based nonprofit dedicated to saving dogs impacted by abuse, neglect, abandonment, and the pet overpopulation crisis.
Mission Mutt was built on the belief that every dog deserves a chance—especially those who are most often overlooked. What started as a small idea has grown into a rescue saving lives across the country, made possible entirely by fosters, volunteers, adopters, and supporters who stand behind this mission.
