Doberman Pinscher Rescue

We adopted our dobie girls Shelby and Tory from Doberman Pinscher Rescue at North Florida . I was so moved by the efforts made by Judy (she runs the rescue) that I began to volunteer. I have seen some amazing things since then. Some wonderful dobies come through rescue on their way to their new forever homes. Some wonderful dobies come to rescue to live out their last days, abandoned by their owners in their golden years. And then there are the wonderful dobies who come to rescue who really need to be rescued. This blog post is about two of those dobies who have recently come to rescue.

This is Bruce2. A sweet dobie boy who is less than two years old.


He came to us out of the animal shelter in Dothan, Alabama. As you can see he is really, really thin.


What you may not be able to tell is that he also has an infection in his skin that will take weeks to clear up. Then it will be several more weeks before his coat comes back in.


He is also high heartworm positive and will need immiticide treatment once he has gained enough weight to withstand the treatment.


And then there is this little guy.


He also comes to us from the shelter in Dothan, Alabama. He too is only about two years old. He was brought to the shelter by his owners with a severely injured leg. I don't know too much about this little guy just yet as he is brand new to us but what I can see just by looking at his picture is that he really needs rescue.
Not all of the stories are like this. Doberman Pinscher Rescue at North Florida has rescued over 150 Dobermans so far as you can see on the Alumni page of the rescue site. Each and every one of them have been placed in wonderful forever homes with people who love them. Rescue does not receive any United Way or Federal funding. Rescue exists with volunteers, private funding and adoption donations. If you would like to support rescue you can make a donation on their site using paypal. I know the funds are put to good use and are very appreciated.
