Rotts of Friends Animal Rescue

Rotts of Friends is a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and finding 'Forever Homes' for abused and neglected dogs/animals.
(193)

Rotts of Friends strives to educate the public about dogs of all breeds and the understanding of what breed, if any, is best for them, preventing pet overpopulation through spay and neuter, and offering programs to properly integrate dogs as a proper part of the family, including those with children and extended families. Since February 2009, Rotts of Friends has rescued 562 dogs. In February 2012

it reached a landmark and placed its 500th dog into its Forever Home (with more still waiting for homes).
2009 - 174 dogs were rescued
2010 - 196 dogs were rescued
2011 - 158 dogs were rescued
2012 - Rotts of Friends is on track for rescuing 272 dogs
The mission of Rotts of Friends continues to expand to meet the growing needs of abandoned and abused dogs throughout the US. The success of this program is evident in the large number of dogs this organization has helped. The heart of Rotts of Friends started with the deep love and appreciation of the Rottweiler breed. It was the love of the breed which pushed its Founder, Renee Lancaster, to do more to save the Rottweiler from irresponsible breeding and ownership. With increased space being allocated to taking in these discarded animals, the message became clear that the willingness to help must extend to other breeds going through the same dilemma of abuse, neglect, over-population, and irresponsible ownership. Rottweilers were soon joined with German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, and other large mixed-breeds, and today includes all breeds large and small. Rotts of Friends expertise and contributions are now recognized throughout the state as a viable option for these otherwise "non-adoptable" or to-be-euthanized animals and has rescued dogs from Border to Border and dogs displaced due to national disasters.

We have some real cuties needing homes. Meet Pebbles, Barney and Wilma. These three were abandoned at a construction site in Stockton where they survived the cold and hunger for several weeks until a worker alerted a friend of ROF. There was a fourth dog, but it fell into the delta and could not be found. All are super sweet, only about 7-10 mos old, and have been vetted. Please call 530-681-1326 for more information.

Meet “Taffy”! This sweet little pocket sized rottie girl was one of five despondent souls we pulled from Kern County last week. Taffy was found wandering as a stray in the town of Taft, hence her name. We are expecting her to whelp any time now. She had a bath the first day and was so exhausted from the stress in the shelter, and then the five hour transport, that she slept for the entire first day. Now warm and comfy, we welcome miss Taffy💕🙏.

Remember Rambo? He is one of the 37 Rottweilers that I have received from various shelters and owner surrenders from Betty Burdens breeding facility. He was left to be euthanized at a local shelter and she refused to help this dog from her own breeding. Anyway, as you can see, he has now decided to be my buddy and he will be safe for the rest of his life. Rambo almost died from pneumonia and was heartworm positive. He has now been neutered, and completed his stringent, expensive , heartworm treatment. ( Thank you, Dr.Palm, and Solono SPCA team)Rambo is an example of Rottweiler resilience, despite his crappy previous life. Thank you all for supporting ROF’s cause!

This sweet young lady came with the couple who adopted Eeore and Deevo this week. She had never been to a rescue facility and had a great time. We sent her back to Italy with an ROF shirt and I asked her to say something in Italian. I LOVE that language!

Morning cuteness!

Rose puppies

Rambo

Thank you, from a visiting exchange student from Italy.

Bubba update❤️

Bubba is doing great. He has made a miraculous recovery! His bloodwork shows his kidney and liver values are normal! He does have an extremely low thyroid level which is probably the root of many of his problems. Fixable! Love this guy!!

Rose update!💕❤️

Rose is recovering from her horrendous upper respiratory virus contracted while birthing in Kern County. She shows the true resilience of natures moms when raising babies. The cuties are 1 week old today. Fat, active and hanging in there. 8 girls, 1 boy. Rose is getting better despite the strain . 🙏🙏🙏❤️

Bubba update

Bubba has recovered enough to walk and his blood values have improved so that he is not as anemic. He is very arthritic, but his meloxicam is working wonders. He now enjoys his short potty walks. Thank you for all the well wishes🙏👍❤️

Rose update! Rose has settled in nicely with her 9 puppies. Rose is the Rottweiler we took in from Kern County yesterday who had 6 puppies overnight in their shelter and then 3 more on the truck ride to us😁 Rose must have been cruising the streets of Bakersfield with several boys from the looks of these kids. They are all precious. We will keep you updated!

Bubba says hi!

Bubba is eating and drinking. This video is just before we placed an I’ve catheter. At least he is comfy and in a quiet spot. Hoping his many antibiotics and fluid therapy can help.❤️❤️He’s so sweet

Rose arrives from Kern County

Rose has arrived from the shelter. I am taking her for a walk while staff puts the babies in the whelping room. Rose had 6 puppies in the shelter last night , and now 3 more in the truck on the 4 hour drive here. Poor momma is exhausted. Sorry for my butt shot, thanks a lot Desi!🤣🤪
