Dora Diva Doberman

Dora, the doberman, must have had a guardian angel watching out for her. First, Karen got a call from a school counselor that a mother doberman was in peril of being destroyed. She had 4 pups and the people who owned her no longer wanted her around their home, so they were going to shoot her.

Thankfully a young girl in the family pleaded for Dora and she was instead taken to the garbage dump and left. Avis, a very great helper of Red Lake Rosie's Rescue goes to the dump often and saw Dora, and called the shelter.

The next bit of good luck was there was a MN SNAP clinic in progress at Redby and so there was an opportunity for Dora to be dropped there where she could be spayed and vaccinated. The young girl was called and asked to go and get Dora at the garbage dump and then turn her in to the clinic the next day- which she did.

Dora was such a good girl and everyone loved her. She spent only one week at the shelter and then was off to a better life.

A special thank you to the MN SNAP clinic staff and volunteers, Nancy and Kristin for transport and the Doberman Rescue of Minnesota for taking this girl, now called Diva.

We are so happy to be working with various specialty rescues, many for the first time. The specialty rescues love Red Lake dogs and are having great success at finding them great homes.

Sincerely, Karen

UPDATE FROM DOBERMAN RESCUE OF MINNESOTA (DRM):
Through caring people on the reservation Diva has made her way to DRM. This girl is nothing but gentle and kind.

Diva walks nicely on a leash, takes treats gently from your hand, crates very well, rides nicely in the car, gets along well with other dogs and may even enjoy some ball playing. This sweet girl will need a home that can give her lots of love.

She has been spayed, micro-chipped, and is up-to-date on all vaccinations. She will need some time in foster to recover from her pregnancy and the difficulties of her former life.

I had the great pleasure of meeting
Dora and being part of her transport, and this little lady will always be special to me. She is one of the most gentle souls I
have ever met, a regal beauty, a lovely lady, and what a wonderful
addition to just the right family. I will always love you, Dora.

What a nice story! I hope poor Diva's puppies are OK & glad she's now in a spot where she will get the love she needs.

Nice Lie. Didn't Happen That Way. Nice Job For Making Me Look Like An Total Jack Ass. Thanks. :) By The Way Her Name Was Diva Before "Dora" And I Went And Got Her On My Own Accord NOT Yours. It Took Literally ALL Day To Get A Hold OF You. I Wanted A Better Life For Her. Which I Can Thank You For At Least. But Your "Lies" Are Not Very Nice. :)

To clear up the record, you may ask Avis if she found Dora at the dump-she called the shelter.

I was at the clinic the day before and would not have been reached at my phone.

The clinic was well advertised and a large banner in Redby was up so the community knew there was a clinc.

The good new is Dora was adopted and has a great home. Karen Good RLRR
