We're so proud of the ways our staff helps out in our community, and Jeff's commitment to the rescue community is second to none! 💚💚

As we celebrate 10 years of Rescue, Rehab, and Rehoming for the dogs who need us most, we want to give a huge shoutout to a volunteer who has been with UMDR since day one—Jeff Trotter! 🎉🐾

From the very beginning, Jeff has believed in our mission, dedicating his time and heart to caring for the dogs we take in. UMDR started as a branch of another organization based in Virginia and in 2015 went out on a limb and formed its own organization which has grown and grown over the last decade. Jeff was there—helping every step of the way. Whether it’s grooming, nail trims, fostering, or volunteering, he does it all!

But that’s not all… Jeff is a rockstar at our training facility, showing up two mornings a week, every single week, for over a decade! 🌧️❄️☀️ No matter the weather—rain, snow, sleet, or hail—Jeff is always there 🏃‍♂️🐕, logging thousands of miles with our rescue dogs.

His dedication is unmatched, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have him on our team. Jeff, you truly deserve this Silver Star! 💫

Join us in thanking Jeff for his incredible commitment! ❤️🐾

As Columbia is wrapping up /False Film Fest weekend, this sweet memory popped up for me today. Eight years ago, we dipped our toes in the water with a pop-up cat cafe in our downtown location on True/False weekend. Fast forward eight years, we completed our 260th adoption from 's Beans Cat Café!

If you haven't stopped by to visit us at the cafe, you absolutely should - the food and drinks are outstanding, the kitties are great, and the environment is ::chef's kiss::! 🤌🤌😽

If you want to make a *lasting* impact, shift your buying habits to supporting local businesses year-round. When you shop with us and other small businesses, you're:

💚 Investing directly in your community's economic health
💚 Supporting families who live right here in Columbia
💚 Reducing environmental impact with shorter supply chains
💚 Ensuring your pets get products selected by experts who know them by name
💚 Building meaningful relationships with people who truly care about you and your pets

Small shifts in shopping habits create ripple effects that transform communities. Every dollar spent locally generates about 3x more economic benefit for our city than when spent elsewhere!

We're grateful for each of you who choose to shop with us - whether it's once a year or every month. Every visit matters, and we're committed to providing you the best experience with every visit. Columbia has so many amazing locally-owned businesses, so check them out before heading to a big box retailer or online giant!
