My Nonprofit Reviews

When I became disabled, I was looking for something to fill my time that would still allow me to work with animals. Low & behold I stumbled upon a posting that Save Rocky Great Dane Rescue & Rehab needed volunteers! I previously worked in the vetting industry so that’s the area I chose to volunteer in. I happened to have a Great Dane so I was hopeful it would be a good fit. Well it ended up being a Great Fit! I am truly humbled by the amount of time & effort that every volunteer puts into this rescue. Not only is time volunteered but some also foster the dogs. SRGDRR is ran with ONLY volunteers! Amy, the president, has the biggest heart & will go above & beyond to help a dog. The rescue runs like a well oiled machine, there are different groups that handle different areas of the rescue. There is a chat started for every foster so that any questions or concerns can be addressed quickly & efficiently. Don’t think the rescue’s only for Great Danes either, we helped rescue a chihuahua the other day! SRGDRR is based out of Texas but have dogs from California to Canada to Vermont. There can be up to 200 dogs in the rescue at any given time, so far this year we have taken in 463 dogs, transferred in 88 from other rescues, adopted out 508, & spent $414,000 in medical bills & medicine. I have written just a small part of everything this rescue has accomplished, I’m so proud to say that I’m a part of it!
