My Nonprofit Reviews

I first went to a DVGRR 'meet & greet' with the intent of adopting a young, female golden retriever, taking my 8 year old granddaughter along to help me choose. She 'fell in love' with an 8 year old dark brown Puerto Rican rescue with a permanent left head tilt who had remained unadopted for many months...so of course he became mine! And what a wonderful buddy he turned out to be...as well as the young female I went back to adopt after several months! Years later, she has now become the 'mentor' dog to Einstein who was all but feral when they got him, but has slowly but surely made great progress in allowing people to touch him, even proactively approaching me for petting! His roommate came along as well, so I am currently at 4 DVGRR rescues...and the peace of mind I've had each time knowing each one's personal & medical history (as much as possible) has made all the difference! I have done some volunteer work there as well, and seeing the staff devotion to the dogs & their mission is incredible. Far and above, a top notch operation!
