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

Leroy



We renamed Harbor to Leroy and we are Loving & Enjoying every minute with him!!! He is such a loyal and smart cookie!!!! We took him to the vet back in November and our vet told us that his disposition is what they look for in a guide dog. He is such a social butterfly, loves the kids and anyone he meets. He will cry at them just to get them to come over and pet him…… I never have had a dog that is as smart as him!!
We have been working on training him and have continued the sitting before he goes out and have trained him to sit when he comes in so he can have his feet wiped when he comes in. He knows when he is told to stay, come and are biggest one is the NO BITE! Since I am home with him during the day it makes it nice for me to work on the training with him.
He is house broken and sits at a door and barks when he needs to go out. He has a basket of toys that he likes to take and choose which ones to play with. He is just as spoiled as my kids!!!
We go for walks almost every morning when the weather permits, he has to walk nice and when we get home I extend the leash out and we play tug a war and run in circles. He has lost most of teeth already; our vet thought he was a little older since he had already had some adult teeth.
I am rambling on here…….
Overall we have adopted such a wonderful, smart, loving dog!!!!!!
Oh, he has to sleep right next to you when he wants to take a nap or at bed time and he likes to snore!!! When he is ready for bed he is a total veg!!!
Okay, I think I better get going here…….
Have a Happy Holiday.

I had the pleasure of meeting Harbor once while he was in Rudy's care. Leroy looks like he has grown so much in such a short time! What a handsome boy he is :)
