Rescue Dog Sponsorship!
Hi, I'm Nellie, and I'm the owner of the professional dog training business Legend K9 Retreat!
My team and I are extremely passionate about dogs, especially the ones that need a second change.
Because of that, the last 2 years, we've done quite a bit of Pro Bono cases where we would pull a shelter dog in need, train and rehabilitate, and find the dog a loving and forever home. Each of these cases costs us approximately $2200-$5000 in training fees, vetting, boarding, food, etc.
Unfortunately, this past year has been rough on our company, and we've chopped it down to this - we offered too many pro bono cases. We've concluded that we have 2 options. 1. Stop taking in rescue dogs, or 2. Seek out sponsorships. We're attempting the latter.
How it works:
Each month, our team will pick a different shelter, evaluate, and choose 1-2 dogs (depending on sponsorship amount)
We can then pull the dogs and enroll them into our advanced training board and train program. (includes learning calm/impulse control, sit, down, come, place, stay, leash work, door manners, not jumping, digging, mouthing, getting in trash/on counters, chewing, barking, Kennel training, proper socialization, and any needed rehabilitation with dog/cat/animal/people fear or aggression, resource guarding and/or separation anxiety)
We are a small, home based dog training company with 3 trainers. Dogs live in the home with the trainer, so they won't just be moved to another kennel like environment.
**Here's the fun part, we will document the dog's progress(pictures/videos/posts), and sponsors will have the choice to be anonymous or recognized in every update.
So if you're a business owner, or just want to make a difference, this could be a great opportunity for you to make a difference in the life of an amazing and sweet dog that needs a second chance.
As our goal would be to hit that $2200-$5000 per dog, we recognize that may not be possible and can commit to pull a dog once $500 is received.
Dogs are able to have multiple sponsors
All donations will go towards these rescue/shelter dogs and into finding them a forever home.
