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”

Cocoa (Kona)



Here are some recent pictures of our big girl. She continues to have an endless capacity to love, give kisses, and wag her tail. We couldn't possibly be any more in love with her than we are. She's just the perfect dog.
Last weekend was a longer one for us, and we spent most of it enjoying the sun and leaves. Cocoa was out with us the whole time, and did really great without her leash on staying near us and on our land. We also took her on a couple of "field trips," one to the Pumpkin Patch to pick out pumpkins, and the other, to walk the Keuka Lake Outlet Trail, (nature trail), where she met some new friends and admirers.
Cocoa sticks pretty close to her 18 month old pal, Madison, who delights in feeding her every meal, by lobbing food over the side of the tray, and squealing when Cocoa scoops it up. We'll send more pictures (and a happy ending story) soon! We'd like to get a family photo with all of the kids and their big dog together, but so far, no luck.

ENJOY the rest of the weekend, and thanks again for sharing Cocoa with us. You'll always have a special place in our (and hers!) hearts.

Sincerely,
The Bishops
