We need more help for the spay/neuter clinic in Red Lake with MN SNAP that's coming up on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, April 12-14.
We especially need help on Thursday, which would mean arriving Wednesday evening.
If anyone can help, please let me know.
Thanks,

Waiting for Astra
Early last fall, a large white puppy known as Astra came to the shelter.
ASTRA & FOSTER FRIEND
She had been a stray in the housing project and began a long wait at Red Lake Rosie's Rescue.
After she gained weight and was fixed and vaccinated, we noticed small patches of demodex mange on her face. Other than that she was in great shape- but who would take a dog with demodex, which is an inerited mange, although not contagious, may be difficult to cure?
Astra spent the long months in a kennel, getting out two times a day to run and romp in the shelter yard, but we were concerned about a future for her.
Well, thanks to All Dog Rescue, Astra finally got her opportunity to leave and enter foster care. We are so happy for her, and want to thank All Dog Rescue for taking a chance on Astra.
ASTRA & RLRR FRIENDS
We recently got a very nice picture of her with her foster brother. Much better home than living alone in a kennel!
ASTRA & FAWN AT RLRR
Astra had many friends at the RLRR shelter- but so happy she has a chance for adoption now.
Best wishes Astra!
Sincerely, Karen

True survivors meet: Ode & Leo
ODE & LEO
I know that longtime readers of the Red Lake Rosie's Rescue blog (and now Facebook), will remember the gut-wrenching stories of two abused pups. They came in at different times, but they are linked as survivors of cruel ear amputations.
ODE ON ARRIVAL
Ode's ears were burned off down the the skull.
JUSTIN/LEO ON ARRIVAL
Leo's ears were crudely cut off.
Naturally, both dogs were in great pain and were terribly afraid when they came to Karen. The photos showed the awful dead look in their eyes and their cringing body language.
Nancy O had to go right into the kennel with Leo (then known as Justin) to try to comfort him.
Both dogs got the immediate medical attention they needed and immediate tender loving care, then were quickly placed in foster homes in the Twin Cities. Now they have been adopted into families that love them.
LEO
When recently the two dogs got to meet, though they were nervous, it was a special moment for everyone who has come to care about them both.
ODE
MOMS OF THE DOGS SAY:
As always, thanks to Karen, Denise & all RLRR volunteers for their dedication and tireless efforts in saving RL critters in need and getting them to us appreciative city dwellers You rock!
Pam & Colleen
KAREN SAYS:
Thank you to the supporters, volunteers, rescues, and people who adopt the animals and give them a great home! We could not do it without each of you.
NANCY SAYS:
Karen, thank you for sending me this photo of two of my heroes, Ode and Justin. I have not met Ode yet but this is on my bucket list. I will never ever forget her tough beginnings and how hard you worked to save her, remembering how intense that first night was. And Justin was as remarkable. I am so pleased for these two.....thank you!

Second chance for poor Bobo
A call from a concerned citizen in Red Lake in February during the cold snap told us a little stray shepherd pup was starving and freezing in her yard. The pup reportedly had mange and was basically hairless, wandering from house to house in search of food.
Geri and I answered the call and searched the area and could not find the dog- and returned later and found him. He came to be known as Bobo.
On arrival was very skinny and yes, hairless. He began a treatment of ivermectin, revolution, and antibiotics for skin lesions. He has this very big appetite and he was so happy to have all he could eat.
Bobo's personality began to emerge as he was feeling better and soon became a favorite little man. He had this very low pitched bark and loved to follow me around the kennel yard, waiting to get his special treat of canned dog food when he was tucked in his kennel.
Bobo went to the March clinic and was neutered and vaccinated and was regrowing hair nicely.
Bobo left the RLRR shelter on March 10th enroute to a very special foster home with Matt and Susie at ARVSS. We have heard that they are working with him on cats and he is progressing well.
HE SURE LOOKS HAPPY!
We want to thank all the supporters who make it possible to rescue the Bobos and get them on to a good life. We are thankful for food, straw, kennels, medicines and of course the transporters and rescues that take Bobo and others like him on to a decent life.
Bobo will never have to walk the streets looking for food and shelter again thanks to you.
I miss him, but am happy for him.
Sincerely,
Karen and RLRR

Saved from dump for a life of love & luxury
BAILEY'S STORY:
In August 2011, Bailey was brought to the Ponemah shuttle for the animal clinic in Red Lake. This little brindle beagle mix was a very timid and sweet dog.
BAILEY AFTER
The girl that brought her said that she rescued her from the Ponemah dump and was trying her best, but did not have food and medicine to cure the mange.
BAILEY BEFORE
Bailey came to Red Lake Rosie's Rescue after getting spayed at the clinic.
We are so happy to give the dear Ponemah dogs the help they needed! They have been eating nonstop for the past 3 weeks as they were so hungry on arrival.
On September 7, Bailey left for a foster home with Pet Haven and now she is settled in her new home. Thank you, Pet Haven!
Karen
NOTE FROM PETHAVEN:
Look at little Bailey now -- living large in a loft overlooking downtown Minneapolis and the Mississippi River.
Bailey is now taking obedience classes (where she is, of course, the smartest dog).
She takes walks downtown near the Guthrie and has many new puppy friends in the building.
This is the life.

Little Clown
KAREN SAYS:
On March 7th, I received a call that a man wanted to surrender a litle 1/2 pom- 1/2 pug small breed male dog. They called him Chewy. Well, we recently had another Chewy, so we called him Chewy II.
MARY & FRANKIE (formerly Chewy II)
I took a trip to Red Lake and met Casey who said he had rescued the dog from a family who no longer wanted him as he was lame and his tail was chewed off midway due to a dog attack. Chewy II was a mess and was limping on the left leg which was underdeveloped and had the evidence of previous injury.
CHEWY II ON ARRIVAL AT RLRR
Chewy II very quiet on arrival and never barked or ran around like most of the small dogs we get. He was a real mess physically but a real doll who seemed so happy to lay quietly on his little bed at the cathouse.
It just so happened that Linda was planning a trip to Red Lake Rosie's Rescue the very next day and, needless to say, she fell in love with this boy right away.
The following day, Chewy started showing symptoms of a swollen joint on one of his front legs so he had trouble walking at all. Linda and I took him to the vet and there he was found to have lymes disease so they gave him antibiotics and rimadyl for his pain.
By the next day, Chewy II was walking and much happier, especially when he rode out with Linda to the metro, where he was adopted by Linda's sister Mary who had been looking for a special dog for a while.
Karen
LINDA & CHEWY II (now Frankie)
LINDA WROTE:
I am forwarding a picture of Chewy with my sister Mary. She was immediately in love with him. She has already started training and reports that he almost has "sit" down. He is a bright little guy! He has had no accidents inside, and follows their older dog Bear outside to pee and poo.
I stayed for an hour or so when I dropped him off, and Mary said he was a little upset and looking for me after I left. But I think he has bonded with her already. Slept in their bed last night.
Has barked ONCE at someone walking behind their fenced yard. She said he has a remarkably deep voice, but has only barked that once. Her grandkids have been over and he is calm and friendly with children. My parents met him last night and also love him.
Just spoke to Mary and they were headed out on a walk. He's great on the leash! So I think all will be well.
Linda
FRANKIE CHEWING
NOTE FROM MARY:
Karen,
I wanted to update you Chewie's adventures since he left you. He is quite the character - every day his personality blooms a little more.
He loves to go on walks, tear around the backyard after a ball, and LOVES his treats and chew sticks. He has shown us some circus tricks - standing on his front legs and almost doing flips when he sees that it's meal time. I've tried to get pictures - but he's too fast! He knows if he waits patiently during dinner there will be something tasty at the end.
FRANKIE LOUNGING
He was glued to me for the first couple days - but is now spending time with the man of the house and enjoys visiting with anyone who comes over. He sleeps in bed with us and Bear - good thing we have a big bed! Bear is adjusting - and Frankie is showing respect to the senior member of the house.
BEAR & FRANKIE
He just seemed like his new name Frank (or Frankie) although Linda hates it, we think it fits his larger than his size attitude and personality.
He is going in to get neutered and have his tail fixed up Thursday.
Thank you for sending this little clown to us!
Mary Jo
POST-SURGERY UPDATE:
I just spoke with Mary, and she sends the following report on Frankie, the former Chewy II. (she can't type because she is to busy holding the still sleepy Frankie in her arms):
Frankie went in for tail surgery and neutering today. After he was under anesthesia, the vets did a thorough examination of his tail injury and decided not to operate on it. They called Mary and told her that since tail surgery is very painful for dogs, and since they saw that skin tissue has started to form over the bone stub they recommended the conservative approach. They will continue to monitor it but expect it to heal on its own. Hooray!
Mary sends her best and thanks everyone again for the delightful little guy who has already brought so much joy to their household.

Carl kitten
UPDATE FROM ADOPTERS:
Carl (formerly Sinjin) is doing great after four months in his new home. Although his life didn't start out very well at all, he's such a loving, snuggly, and inquisitive little guy. He's named after Carl Sagan, another gentle and curious soul.
His favorite toys are Da Bird, sparkle balls, and his tail. He's very good at playing fetch. He loves picking up things and carrying them around -- very cute with cat toys, but make sure to watch any small items that you put down. Carl got a lot of praise the one time I caught him carrying around a real live mouse, which he handed over without a fuss.
Carl's other favorite activities are snuggling up with his people, stalking his people (he's pretty easy to spot, really), watching birds outside, and watching the toilet flush. The only misbehaviors have been too much interest in wires and plants and bothering Emma, the older cat. Actually, he has been known to climb curtains and peoples' legs, but one can hardly get too annoyed with a cute kitten.
Most all of the time, he's a perfect little gentleman. He's also turned into quite a talker -- it didn't take him long to learn that meowing and trilling gets extra attention and treats.
Many thanks to RLRR and all the wonderful people who helped save this little life. His troubles are over now!

Scout finds home & family
SMILING SCOUT & ALLEN
In July of 2010, two very hungry juvenile dogs, Scout and Cee Cee (littermates) were brought to Red Lake Rosie's Rescue. As time went on it was clear that Cee Cee was a very tame and friendly girl who soon was spayed and off to All Dog Rescue.
CEE CEE, SCOUT'S SISTER
Scout, however, after he was fattened up and neutered, decided he no longer wanted to be in a kennel or on a leash and became one of the RLRR pack. For one year, he was a free-spirit at the shelter. He was a beautiful dog that soon became alpha male as Grandpa shepherd slowly got more and more disabled. He always respected Grandpa, however, and would bow to him.
Many volunteers were very fond of Scout and his beauty and spirit.
SCOUT ON ARRIVAL AT RLRR
One day Shelly visited the shelter looking for a dog in July, 2011. She lived with her husband Allen on a farm and had horses and really wanted a dog. She looked at all the dogs and she said, "I like that one" pointing at Scout. I said, "Good luck on catching Scout. He is really elusive and does not want to be confined or controlled in any way." I tried to discourage her, but Shelly had her mind set on Scout and spent considerable time trying to get him to come to her with treats and sweet talk.
She left disappointed, but continued to call about Scout. I offered that I would do my best to catch and crate Scout for her and if I could not I would enlist the help of Dr. Shannon at the vet to help me with a catch pole.
Well, thanks to Jodi who was visiting, Scout was tricked that day and we managed to get him leashed and into a crate, and Shelly was so happy. He was delivered to her and I was hoping all would work out for Shelly and her family and Scout. Shelly planned on working with him.
SCOUT'S FARM
Today, Lauren and I visited the farm and there was Scout, transformed into a tame dog. Allen told us "Scout is a good dog". It was such a great day to see how well he was doing, and encouragement not to give up on the feral dogs, as they are all "good dogs". They just need the right people to connect with.
SCOUT'S FARM
Scout sleeps with his best friend the cat. He enjoys the family and the horses at the farm.
SCOUT & LAUREN
Thank you to everyone who helped rescue and get Scout to the home he was destined to have. Although Scout recognized us and entertained us for a while, when we left, he turned and left walking with Allen.
SCOUT & KAREN
He was home indeed!
Sincerely, Karen

No-Kill Walk planning mtg, March 20
Join us to plan for Red Lake Rosie's participation in the No Kill Walk for Animals. We are getting together on Tuesday, March 20th.
LOCATION: TURTLE BREAD (46th and Chicago in Minneapolis)
TIME: 6:30 pm
If you can make it, let Colleen carecmeyer@gmail.com know so we have an idea of who's coming. If you can't make the meeting, but want to help, let her know that, as well.
Mary has started the ball rolling. She set up a fundraising page through Givemn.org. People can donate directly to Red Lake Rosies via that page - http://givemn.razoo.com/story/No-Kill-Walk-For-The-Animals-2012 This is a way for people to donate who aren't going to attend or don't live in the Twin Cities.
Red Lake Rosie's supporters are encouraged to form teams, and those teams can set up their own givemn.org team via the Red Lake Rosies GiveMN page. Mary has offered to help with this if people want her expertise mteacup@gmail.com.
This should be a fun event where RLRR supporters and friends can gather together and raise some money, too.
