Donna might be just a little naughty...

Donna and and her sister Darci came in to Red Lake Rosie's Rescue with mange and pretty starved from Redby. Thank you so much for adopting Donna!! She looks so loved and happy.

UPDATE FROM ADOPTERS:
This is Donna. She came from Red Lake Rosie's Rescue last summer. My girlfriend and I adopted Donna from a foster agency last fall.

We were thrilled and very lucky to let Donna into our lives. We could not possibly imagine our lives without her. She has great neighbor dog buddies that she loves to play with. She loves to run through the Minneapolis river parkways, even in the cold. She does not have a mean bone in her body.

I remember that her sister, Darci, was up for adoption in the Twin Cities and she was adopted shortly after Donna.

My girlfriend and I can't thank your organization enough and will continue to be suporters of Red Lake Rosie's Rescue for the rest of our lives.

Thanks

140 spay/neuters in two days?! 78 animals transported in a week?!

SMOKEYWe had a very successful clinic at Redby on August 20-21, and did many neuter/spays. Although final tally is not in, we estimate 140 in the 2 days of clinic.

WHEATLYThank you to Jen Fitzer for a great job in coordination, the vets and support staff from Akin Vet Clinic and Animal Ark, and the many faithful hardworking volunteers who made it all possible.

SOPHIEAlso thank you to Joan Lawson and the Lawson Family Fund for making this and all clinics possible.

SONNYThank you to everyone who chipped in to pay for the Servicemaster cleaning of a new area we claimed for intake and sleeping rooms which made the clinic more secure.

ORIANNA & OLIVIAWe ran a shuttle to and from Ponemah to offer neuter/spay to that village which is a distance from Redby often prohibiting full participation in the past. We all concur it was a very rewarding and needed service and we hope to continue that each clinic. The Ponemah residents were very receptive and participated. They were happy to get the help and really wanted it.

MOONDANCE, MONA & MARISHAWe also had many surrenders, and many placements with all the metro rescues offering their usual help in getting our Red Lake animals a place to go after the dust settles from the busy clinic.

SEVEN SHEP PUPSOur count on placements on Sunday, August 22, was 53 which is amazing.

SURVIVORA special thank you to Dani and Fernando for helping us with the coordination of transports out.

LITTER OF FIVE KITTENSAnimals went to Animal Ark, Akin Hills, Second Hand Hounds, TLC, A Rotta Love, Cause for Paws, MARS, RLRR foster care, Act V, All Dog Rescue, Northwoods Humane Society, and Tricounty Humane Society.

MIRANDAWe are thankful to Akin and Ark for taking all the injured animals and offering to get them help.

DAISYSincerely,

DARCI & DONNAUPDATE:
Believe it or not- we have transferred 53 animals on Aug 22, 12 animals on August 26 and there is another transport, August 28 with 13 scheduled for a grand total of 78 in ONE WEEK.

CHARWe are hoping it starts to quiet down soon. It is bordering on insanity.

SAMMYI am so happy we have the great rescues out there to take the Red Lake animals and the metro support team which is invaluable in our effort.
