I have been a volunteer with Retrieve A Golden Of Minnesota since April of 2007. My dogs in the picture are all former puppy mill dogs. From left to right they are Jorja/Wiggles from Parkston, SD; Indy/Jacinda 07-253 from southern Missouri; Lauren 08-498 from South Dakota; and Annie 13-316 from Pine River, MN. Annie was one of 133 dogs rescued by the Animal Humane Society on July 16, 2013. I made the decision to adopt Annie at the end of February after caring for her for 17 months. She has been my most shy and damaged dog. Thankfully she and her siblings are now living a wonderful life.
The various duties that I have helped serve for RAGOM have been Intake and Transport, Foster Home, Home Visits, and in my spare time serving as the Finance Manager and keeping all of our veterinary clinics paid timely.
Please help Retrieve A Golden Of Minensota (RAGOM) on September 13, 2015 with our Goldzilla/Walk for Rescue fundraiser. I would love to have to update and increase my fundraising goal. All donations are greatly appreciated and warmly welcomed! Donations of $10 help buy monthly heartworm preventative medications; $25 pays for a number of annual vaccinations; and $70 covers the cost of a spay or neuter surgery through MNSNAP.
My girls and I will match the first $200 of donations/pledges from our family and friends. Be generous and make the differnce in the life of a Rescue Dog! My motley crew will thank you!
