RLRR at 2014 MN Horse Expo

NOTE FROM DEB:

Red Lake Rosie's Rescue made its second appearance at the 2014 Minnesota Horse Expo with an informational booth and items to sell. We were able to share what RLRR does with new friends of the rescue, as well as update those that are familiar with us.

 Without the support and help of great volunteers who made items for fundraising, we could not do this. Not only are our volunteers generous, but they are also creative as everything has to be handmade. We had jewelry, dog tags, stuffed hedgies (toy made out of a carwash mitt), cat nip mice, pop bottle covers, elevated beds, dog/cat pads for sleeping, cat beds, totes, potholders, cat nip toys and last, but not least, homemade dog treats! 

We also had two very special guests of honor with us on Friday. Koko was rescued about 8 years ago from some teenage boys that were playing football with him and his littermate on Red Lake Reservation. The Abraham family knew when they saw him at the foster home, that he was going to live with them. They were more then happy to share him with us on Friday so that he could be our ambassador dog. The Abrahams also raise angora goats....yep, we had a bottle baby goat by the name of Luna with us as well. That really got people to come into the booth and chat! We are not above using dogs and kids (baby goat) to get attention! 

Rachel, the young lady sitting with Koko, also happens to own Autumn...a wild horse from Theodore Roosevelt National Park and now a trail horse.

Thank you to the incredible volunteers who made this possible!

Crumpet is 5!!

CRUMPET

Crumpet was a little homeless dog wandering the streets of the Reservation, until he was rescued by Red Lake Rosie's Rescue. Crumpet was so lucky to be adopted by Susan, who had founded the ABE!Fund in memory of her previous dog.

Each year she has a birthday party for Crumpet and raises funds for RLRR. We are so grateful for her generosity and even more happy for Crumpet's great life.

CAITY AND CRUMPET

NOTE FROM ADOPTER SUSAN:

The "Pride of the Red Lake Reservation", Crumpet, is 5 !!!....give or take a few weeks.

He cannot wait for his daily walk with his much beloved girlfriend "Izzy", the schnoodle, and ALWAYS watches over his little sister "Caity", the 9 1/2 year old black and tan Cavalier. 

Chasing squirrels remains his top top priority in life but a good snooze is never far from his mind!

Guess who looks the most like her mom, Elsa??

ELSA IN HER NEW HOME

The runt pup, Faith!

FAITH IN HER NEW HOME

NOTE FROM ADOPTERS TO FOSTER MOM LINDA AND ALL DOG RESCUE:

Faith is doing great and getting big. She attended her first puppy classes last week and is now 25 pounds. Attached are some recent pictures.

Thanks again for the amazing work you do, we are so happy to have been able to adopt through your rescue.
Keep up the great work,
D & S and Faith

Elsa's pup, Cash

NOTE FROM FOSTER MOM LINDA:

What a gorgeous pup - Cash was the last of Elsa's pups to be adopted - what a big boy he is going to be!!!

NOTE FROM ADOPTERS:

Cash is really a great pup. Pretty mellow guy and for the most part behaves great. It might help that he lives on a farm and gets plenty of hikes in a day and often has buddies to run around with too. He's taking a liking to the chickens and cat but not in a good way.

LITTLE CASH

He's a great co-pilot too. Gets in the car and goes right to sleep. We did a road trip yesterday with him for 8 hours and slept the whole time.

Elsa's pup, Serenity, now Namoosh

How quickly they grow!!

Maime's Easter Basket

Easter Surprise!

MAIME

Red Lake Rosie's Rescue took in six cats from a family a few days before Easter Sunday. Five of the cats had been fixed at our ACT V clinic in March. The owners assured us that Maime the sixth cat was also spayed.

Much to our surprise Geri discovered on Easter Sunday Eve that we had 2 little "bunnies" about 1 1/2 inches long in the basket that looked just like their mama. This was our Easter surprise!

EASTER BUNNIES

We are happy to report that the little family and another cat named Romeo headed to foster care with Pet Haven this weekend.
