About Rudys Rescue
Dear Fellow Dog Lover,
I would like to introduce you to Rudy’s Rescue. We are a non-profit, all volunteer organization with a 501 (C) (3) tax exempt status. You probably know that Labrador Retrievers have long been one of the most popular breeds of dogs. What you might not know—and what you might find hard to believe, is that many of them end up homeless, abandoned, surrendered, and/or in need of being rescued from “kill shelters” and puppy mills. That’s what we here at Rudy's Rescue focus our efforts on - saving these deserving dogs who, through no fault of their own, have been cast aside and/or left to live a life lacking in love and kindness.
This process involves transporting, fostering, temperament testing, appropriate medical care as needed, including spaying and neutering, and finally adoption into a loving forever home. Our wish is that someday every animal will have a safe and loving place to call home and we will no longer be needed. You may see our mission statement, success stories (including Winchester, pictured above, who has found a loving forever home) and information on the many Labs we are currently fostering at www.rudysrescue.org.
Sincerely,
Amy P. Holtz
Founder and CEO
“Dedicated to turning one person’s trash into another person’s treasure”
Happy Ending Tails
from some of our adopters...
Brooks
As 2008 draws to a close, I just wanted to share one of the best things that happened to me this year. The beginning of August I adopted Brooks who is 90 pounds of Chocolate Labrador love! He is quite the goofy boy! He loves to give kisses, go for walks, meet friends (two legged and four legged alike!), lay in my closet while I shower, eat, and chew his nylabones or tennis balls. He is such a slob when he drinks that I had to put his water bowl in the bathroom! I had a dog trainer come to the house shortly after I brought him home so I could get ideas of how to work on greeting people since not everyone wants a kiss on the lips! Brooks did quite well when I hosted my bookclub this month. The trainer also gave me some tips on what to do when Brooks decides to vocally insist on getting some attention or nudge my arm while I'm working on the computer. Now he has learned to lie down and be patient and he will get some undivided attention! With Christmas presents under the tree, he seems to know which ones have dog toys in them so I have to be vigilant or he would open the ones he is giving to his four legged friends! He has certainly enhanced my life and now I can't imagine the house without him!
