Review for Mastiff Rescue of Florida, Stuart, FL, USA
I went to the pound to pick up Emma, an EM, to bring home for fostering. She had first been evaluated by a MRF volunteer the day before. That was 5 yrs ago. We adopted her after a short time. Mastiff Rescue of Florida was a great help from the day I went to the pound. All the paperwork was ready, which can be a real frustration if not. Her spay was paid for & her heart worm medication was sent to me monthly for +HW.
The head of our group, Pam, has been a great resource for understanding & caring for this breed. But she has also helped me with other breed rescue dogs I have. Out FB group is very supportive. Sharing insight & resource about our EM's & all dogs.
Many hands in this organization help pick up dogs, evaluate them, transport them, find fosters & permanent homes. If a dog needs behavior work, it is done. If there is an Oldie but Goodie (senior), they can stay a foster in their home & have their care taken care of by MRF.
Our Emma was over bred & thrown away with a horribly infected uterus. She has a great life now with fenced yard, a pool she jumps onto first landing daily, sleeps on the couch & loves her Daddy.
Review for Mastiff Rescue of Florida, Stuart, FL, USA
Became a foster with MRF around this past Spring. Shortly after applying, we had our home review. Our reviewers were sweet people. We had a great experience. About a week later, I got a call to go rescue an EM at a kill shelter. She had been evaluated by another volunteer. I needed info while at the shelter. I had no trouble having one of the leaders call & email everything I needed, while there. Emma needed to be spayed. Our evaluators even met us at the Vet to give us some paperwork. Even though Emma is a failed foster now & one of our first of 3 adoptions, I never have problems when needing advice or support. I’ve seen nothing but a desire to help these dogs. One foster we traveled a couple hours to meet another volunteer. Everybody offers to help & get involved to help each other & especially the dogs!! I belong to 3 rescues. I trust these great people & appreciate them.
