     I want to take this opportunity to thank Rescue Me! and recommend this wonderful service to all who love pets! My girl, Chi, a rottweiler, was a rescue to me, and when I took her on, I was sure I'd be giving her a forever home. However, health problems quickly cropped up and I could no longer live on my own. My daughter tried to accommodate my three rottweilers, but the situation was too difficult to overcome. Of the three, I'd had Chi the shortest time, and felt she'd be able to adjust the easiest to a new situation. Upon posting her photo and information, I received a good number of responses and after only a few days I'd had enough responses to feel comfortable being able to choose the optimum situation for my sweet girl. In the end, a lovely woman contacted me and her situation was as similar to ours as could be, and I felt very comforted to know Chi would be in good hands, have a lovely, loved life, and a forever home chasing bunnies, chickens, and being petted and fed cookies. It was exactly the ending I'd hoped for. Thank you again for not just the service, but the peace of mind I have knowing all this will turn out well for Chi.

     We want to thank the Rescue Me! site for helping us find a great home for Fifty. It only took three days! Fifty is like a family member to us, we love him so much we had to let him go, and a wonderful family came. We asked a lot of questions, and we know he is going to a great home. He will get a lot of love and attention he deserves. Fifty is the greatest dog we ever had, and we will keep in touch with the family and see how he is doing. Thank you so much for helping us find a home for our dog.

     Our sweet little Rottie was posted on Rescue Me! on a Monday. The response was overwhelming. Within three days she was with amazing new parents and a 'sister' Rottie her same age. Rescue Me! helped us find Sadie a perfect home and has given us peace of mind that she is with her forever family. Thank you, Rescue Me!

     I want to express to you, or make my best effort to express, just how grateful I am to you, to Rescue Me!, and what you do on behalf of precious 'bubbas' like my Diego. I was in a desperate place to get him to a safe, loving, nurturing home due to my falling onto hard times... I have been so overwhelmed and deeply touched by the teaming up that happened, by other rescue and related organizations, as well as single individuals who ended up hearing about Diego and my plea for him. The outreach and outpouring of sincere and love-filled concern and desire to help in any way, even if was just to let me know that our circumstance were being prayed for, was something I have not experienced in a community in so long... I want to thank you and all of the players involved in getting Diego to a wonderful rescue group, who are committed to setting him up for success and the best life he can attain. From the bottom of my heart and by the time he realizes it, from the bottom of my Bubba's heart... thank you. Ten times over. You are a blessing that reaches out so much further than you can begin to fathom. God bless you, all of you, and your service. Very sincerely, Alicia and Bubba

     Hi Jeff, Thanks so much for your help in finding a home for my Mom's Rottweiler. As I had posted, my Mom passed away on Easter Sunday and left behind her Rottweiler. I, and Bo, were in a rather desperate situation and a race against time to find him a home. I started searching for various Rotty rescues and stumbled onto your Rescue Me! site among several others. I posted Bo's tale of woe on your site and was contacted the next day by some very nice folks. We arranged a meeting and they fell in love with Bo immediately. Bo now has a fenced in yard to play in and a new companion, a young female Rottweiler, to play with. He couldn't be in better hands and a weight has been lifted from my soul. I know Mom would be happy with Bo's new home, too. Thanks again for the help your site provided. Patti D.

     Roscoe was adopted! It was through Rescue Me! that I was contacted by a lovely lady in Richmond, who was looking for her furever friend. Thank you so much for assisting me in finding this wonderful dog a home. I rescue dogs, and will be using your site in the future to rehome and relocate my four legged friends. Roscoe, now named Oliver, is a lucky dog, who will have years of love and tummy rubs. Thanks again!

     The very next day after posting on Rescue Me!, I received a call from a man who had seen my rottweiler's picture on the web site. He came to the house and decided that he really wanted the dog. I asked him a lot of questions trying to make sure that the big guy was going to a good home and it seemed that he was. The gentleman has kept in touch by letting me know that he took the dog to the vet and he will bring him around for a visit soon.

     I posted my two 6-yr-old female Rottweilers. Two days later, they were picked up by their new humans. The new parents spent time petting and playing with both dogs before loading them for the trip home. They had brought their first dog with them, so I could see how he behaved and acted. Since he was obviously well cared for and happy with life, I have no fears that Brita and Bella will be just as happy and well-cared for. Thank you for your help, Rescue Me! I was amazed at how fast this all happened and greatly relieved to find a good home for both my dogs.

     I am thrilled with Rescue Me! I received many awesome applicants from the site. We had an application approved and a visit scheduled when the foster mom decided to keep Coffee. I tried to convince the applicant to consider one of our other available dogs but she only wanted a rottie so I'm hoping she will still find that perfect dog on Rescue Me! We just posted another one of our amazing available dogs and I'm hoping she will receive as much fantastic response as Coffee did.

     This lovely little puppy, Rochelle, was adopted about 3 days after we posted about her. It was a nice family that came to our home and took her. They had a little boy that seemed very eager to take Rochelle. She was an active little bundle in our home during the short time that we had her. Her new home sounded very nice. Our prayers were answered thanks to Rescue Me. This network is a gem!

     I posted my Rottie on Rescue Me! out of desperation because my landlord wouldn't let us keep her because of her breed. I was terrified she would have to go to a shelter, and because of her breed I feared she would have been euthanized and I couldn't bear the thought. She's an AMAZING dog... Well about 2 days after posting on Rescue Me! a man name Neal texted me very interested in Lira. We shared views as far as how dogs should be handled and such and he is familiar with the breed. He had the room for her, his landlord was looking forward to having her there (which was important to me) and it was something him and his girlfriend wanted to do. Long story short, me and my boyfriend drove 2 hours and delivered them their dog. Lira had no fear, she took to them no problem and literally dragged him into his house (LOL) -- when we left she wasn't phased. I'm really happy with the turn out, and I have them on Facebook so I can see pictures... I think she's were she belongs.

     The Rescue Me web site brought a lot of knowledgeable people, most have been previous Rottweiler owners. Eicko was adopted by a wonderful family from Baton Rouge Louisiana. We spoke on the phone many times, answered all their questions. They arrived Saturday to come and visit with Eicko and my family and without any hesitation we both agreed he would be a great fit for their family. We were so happy to be able to place him in such a loving home.

     I am very pleased to say that using this website has helped me re-home my Rottweiler, Dixie. I am moving across the country in a week and could not bring her with me. I was worried the lack of time would make it hard for her to find a home, previous websites had not been successful and I did not want her to be put in a shelter. She deserves better than that. I posted her ad yesterday and this morning Dixie found a wonderful home with a gentleman on 40 acres of land. She has plenty of room, other dogs and kids to play with. There really could not have been a better outcome for her and I know she'll get the love and attention she deserves. The new owner even said I could even visit Dixie if I'm in town. :) This website is amazing! I'm so happy something like this exists and I highly recommend it!

     Thank you for helping my Rottweiler find a good home! The quality of people who contacted me through your service were just completely better educated and more responsible pet owners compared to the people who contacted me when I posted my pet on Craigslist. Rottweilers are difficult to find good homes for because they are easily susceptible to abuse from people who want them as 'mean' guard dogs or who want to use them for backyard breeding. Thanks to your service, my pet has found a loving home that can give her the exercise and attention that she needs for a long, happy, healthy life.

     I was having a real hard time finding serious people. Betsy was already rehomed once with an elderly couple. They had her about a month and upon returning home, she was tied on a 2 foot leash to the outside of our gate. No explanation, note, never came back, talk to a neighbor, nothing. She is such a sweet loving girl I cannot imagine why someone could do that. It has been barely 24 hours and she is going home. Thank you for having this site!

     Zeus's time was running out. We were fostering him, but were scheduled to go out of town in the next few weeks and could find no one to take him. Then I got the most wonderful e-mail saying he was interested in Zeus.!!!! Praise God as it was down to a few days before we would have had to take this wonderful creature to a shelter and we all know what that means. Well we worked out the logistics and met half way and today we took Zeus to meet his new Dad. He liked him right away. If it had not been for this site, this would not have happened. I can't thank you enough!... Zeus was just the victim of selective breed list and he could not go live with his mom when she had to move. But now he has a second chance to spend the rest of his life with a person who will care for him and give him a forever home. Thank you Derrick.

It seemed like it was a match made in heaven. She is a wonderful person with another rottie at home. She texted me back and told me the 2 of them were getting along beautifully. I was SO blessed that she called me. Thank you SO MUCH for this website. I think a better group of people look at this site.

He is now in a loving home of 3 who will give him the attention and love he deserves that we could no longer give him.

     I am thrilled to say that after a number of calls and email sent, because Chopper was ten, a lot of them just wouldn't consider adopting, a couple drove quite a ways to take Chopper home. There they have a female and said the two dogs took to each other right away. I admit I had my doubts that he would ever get a home, but thanks to these gracious people they were able to make Chopper and me extremely happy!!!

     I found a home for Ullyses. A fellow from red bud IL. I really wanted a rott. I checked him out some, what he was looking for and how he plans on taking care of the dog. He's going to be a really good human for the dog. I'm glad he got him. I wish I could of kept him, but where I'm living at now the insurance won't let you keep one, which is so unfair. Why can't they look at the dog, and not just the breed. I've had other rotts before and I've never had one even growl at a human, but he's got a good home and that's what's important.

     We appreciate your service so much. The type of people who contacted us through Rescue Me! were much more responsible and caring dog owners than the people who contacted us through our posting on Craigslist. We found the perfect new home for our pet very quickly and would recommend your organization over others. Thank you so much!

     Jeff, Bella was adopted! Thank you. We were contacted by a man and his family who had previously adopted a lab named Bella from the SPCA, but she crossed the rainbow bridge last month. They were looking for a replacement, and the serendipity was too much! We spoke three times on the phone and met at a dog park so they could become acclimated. We were contacted by a total of 5 people... We appreciate the service you provide. Hopefully, we will never need to do this again, but if we do we will definitely use Rescue Me! Thanks so much!

     I found Dallas a great home after 4 visits between me, Dallas and his new owner - all one day apart, we saw that it was a great match and Dallas would get the consistency of the stable life he needs that unfortunately I was unable to give due to a move which would not allow me to keep him. I am lucky enough that his future owner has offered me to visit him when I would like to and is near enough for me to do so. I plan to let them get settled in and meet up sometime over next couple of weeks to see how they have done with their bonding. His future owner has had 4 other Rottie's the most recent being Rocky which was his daughters and she took him with her when she left for college so he has really been missing a companion. I'm very excited for Dallas and his future. I received more than 20 responses from my ad and all were really great people that had stories of their past Rotties or other dogs to share.

Very surprised and happy with how great this really did. He will be going to his forever home next week and we are so grateful for your site. Thank you so very much.

     I am going through a divorce, and so I have to leave my house in the country for a small apartment. If that wasn't enough, I have the burden of giving up my beloved Rottie! My biggest concern was finding someone that wouldn't just chain him to a tree, fight him, or have to take him to a pound where he would be put down! I took a chance and put King on Rescue Me; in fact, it was the only site I used! I had several people contact me within 24 hours of posting him! I was shocked because Rotties have such a bad reputation perpetuated by those who have NEVER OWNED ONE!!! The people who contacted me were genuinely concerned about King's future and agreed that once you've owned a Rottweiler you always want to own one. King has a new home, a fantastic new home, and found one within 48 hours!!!! Please do not doubt, or hesitate to use, this resource. The site was easy to use. Although I am sad to see King go, I have peace knowing that he is completing someone else's life. I owe that to Rescue Me. Your adored pet can too!

     I would like to personally thank you for creating such a wonderful resource!!! It is so unfortunate that when some people look at Rotties they don't see a cute face - instead they see a huge head and big teeth that are waiting to bite a butt cheek off. It is due to complete ignorance of the breed, and because of this I was fearful of never finding a loving home for the dog I am forced to part with. Apartments only want you to own a little five pound dog or a cat. Rescue Me! has helped me out tremendously. His new owner is incredible and makes it a bit easier to part with him. My kids will miss their pony! Sincerely, Rachel L. Knapp

     Hi Jeff, I have relatives/friends in several states and I sent them the link to your organization. They will look in their individual states. Your service is fantastic. Along with dogs at rescue groups, you also have just individuals who need to find a good home for their dogs. The rottie I got from the lady who posted her is fantastic. His picture on the website didn't show how beautiful a dog he is. He is very well behaved and loves to play. I live in Canton, TX, which is about 80 miles east of Ft. Worth. The lady even brought the dog out to us. If I ever want another dog your website will be the FIRST place I check. I received notice that I was laid off today, so a donation is a little out of the question (for right now). But I give you a promise, as soon as I can draw a paycheck you will hear from me. To get a beautiful dog like I got for free most assuredly deserves a $$ help. Thanks for helping people get hooked with these dogs, but more import THANK YOU for caring enough to get these wonderful creatures into loving homes. God made dogs, and all they do is give love. Del Treadway

     Unfortunately, my wife and I had to part ways with our dog, Zeus! It was indeed one of the hardest things we have ever had to do. But luckily through Rescue Me, we found a wonderful new parent for Zeus. Zeus has moved on to his new home and we are happy to know that he is now with someone that will love him just as much as we do! Thanks Rescue Me.

     Hello Jeff: I wanted to stop by and say THANK YOU, but somehow I feel thank you its never going to be enough!!! You were the angel I've been praying for about 4 months. I had the very difficult task to give away my beloved baby boy Beaner, and thanks to your site I found him the best possible home. He looked very happy when I left him, and now I'm praying that he has found his forever home. One doesn't want to believe that your loved one is going to be better off, but in this case he is way better off with his new mom and dad and 3 new siblings, and even thought its breaking my already broken heart I am confident that he is well taken care off. Now my compromise and one of my goals is to get back on my feet so I can too rescue a little angel from your website. Please keep up doing what you are doing, its people like you and your team that makes this world a better place. God bless you... Marialicia and Beaner

     Maggie found a great home!!! This is the best website, I am telling everyone I know about it. We brought Maggie into our home after watching her roam the streets for two weeks. We couldn't stand it any longer. We placed ads and looked for her owners but no one came forward. We had been looking for a home for her for the last 2 months and I came across your website a couple of weeks ago and posted her information. I had no picture to post but started getting inquiries after a couple of days! We live in the country on a couple of acres and have horses, goats, sheep, pot bellied pigs, parrots, cats and dogs. She got along well with all of them. Everything was fine and we were just waiting for the right home to come along but then she discovered the neighbors chicken coop and realized how much fun chickens were to play with! Unfortunately she played with them to death and the neighbors got upset! (I don't blame them) So we ended up in a position that Maggie had to go in a few days or we would get a $1,500 fine! I changed the post to let people know she was in immediate danger because the pound here has parvo and it is a kill shelter. Most dogs that go to it have 3 days or less. It was breaking our hearts to think she would have to go there. But the people that frequent your website came through! After I changed the post it was only 3 days and Maggie had a home! I just want to say thank you for putting this website together and for all the great people that make it work! You truly are a Godsend. Terrilyn Little

     Dear Jeff, Thank you for having your website available for the innocent animals left behind by irresponsible people. We did find a home for the Rottweiler named Cyrus now. It was actually a local person who took him in when they learned of his plight. The new owner has taken Cyrus to the vet, has had him fixed, and will be having his leg fixed to make life more comfortable for this rescued angel. It will cost this new owner over $1200 to take care of Cyrus' health issues. How generous is that of someone to undertake in these hard times? I guess family will be helping the new owner with this cost. I was contacted by three individuals through your website; one in Manhattan, one from Wyoming County, and one closer to Buffalo. Even though Cyrus already had a home, it was wonderful to know people cared and were interested in an animal with a bad leg. God Bless and thank you. Lynda

     Dear Mr. Gold, Thank you is not enough to express our infinite gratitude for your website. We love animals, especially dogs. When we found 'Rocco', it was our first time interacting with a Rottweiler. He was very intimidating. We walked him for hours around our neighborhood without any luck in finding his family. My wife and I took him to Petsmart to scan him for a microchip. Rocco had one, but it was not registered by his family. The more time we spent with Rocco, the more we got to care for him and see how loving he is. Unfortunately, we are not able to keep him. We had called Animal Control and feared he would be euthanized in just a couple days. I had taken a picture of Rocco to share with my facebook friends. I started searching on the web for rescue agencies for Rottweilers and I found Rescue Me! I immediately uploaded the picture I had to your website to try our luck. In 24 hours, we received 6 emails and about 3 voice messages. At this point we called Animal Control and told them to cancel our request to drop by to pick up Rocco. Your site helped our Rocco find a great forever family. Now, we miss him terribly but we are also extremely happy Rocco will be in a great home. Washington

     Jax found a new home. He didn't quite fit in our home and he didn't seem to be happy so we decided we should try to find him a better fit. We found a great family who will be able to give him more attention and spend more time with him than we could. they have had him for a week and things are going great! They are so happy and we are happy that he has found a forever home. A friend rescued him from an abusive home and asked us to take care of him until he could find a good home for him. We took care of him for several months but couldn't seem to find a permanent home. I stumbled on Rescue Me! and soon got an email asking about him. When they met him it was love at first sight. I know he will be happy and well taken care of with his new family. Jax may have had a sad beginning but he will now have a happy ending. Tammi

     I tried several years to open a shelter for all dogs and was put down by the state for not having a building. I only had 3 acres, but every animal had a house, food and vet care. I was a 501c3 also, but did not receive very many donations and lost my house. I think what you are doing is great and wish I had had the opportunity to do that with my shelter. At least, I got 40 dogs adopted in 8 months, so that makes me feel good. I have 3 dogs now in town and it is hard because 2 are rotts and the neighbors are scared. We are working very hard to change the opinion of rotts in our neighborhood. Thank you, Angela

     Hello Jeff, I am so thankful for your website. Every animal that I have been able to post on your site has found a loving forever home. The reason it means so very much to me is that ALL of the animals that I have posted would have been in danger of being euthanized if I couldn't find homes for them. I am so excited to see so many people looking at RescueMe.org to adopt these loving animals instead of going to pet stores and some breeders to get their pets. Thank you for supporting all of us who are trying to make a difference in these animals lives. I sleep so much better at night because of the RescueMe site and the wonderful people who have saved my best little four paw friends. I don't have a lot of extra money but I have made a donation and will continue to try to make more. Keep up the good work and Bless you. Warm Regards, Laura Moore Homeward Bound Animal Rescue
