Donations

Would you like to donate to NH&R? We could sure use your help!

Rarely does a Newf come through our program that is 100% healthy, up to date on inoculations and already spayed or neutered. Even though we try to use vets who regularly give price breaks for rescue organizations, a routine vet visit will usually run a few hundred dollars per dog. Of course, we end up with a few each year that require thousands (yes, thousands!) of dollars and months of rehabilitation before they can be adopted.

We have a very dedicated number of volunteers who take time off from work to investigate Newfs at shelters, transport dogs to vet appointments, do home inspections for adoption applicants or any of the other hundreds of errands needed to help these dogs. We can't compensate them for lost wages from their jobs but we try to at least reimburse them for their travel expenses when they help us.

Education is the number one most important part of preventing Newfs from coming into rescue in the first place. With this in mind, we routinely run ads in newspaper classifieds when "Newfoundland puppies" ads are present.

In addition, we staff a public education booth at the Golden Gate Dog Show in San Francisco as well as other dog shows around Northern California. Printed materials to be handed out to the public allow our message to go home with them.

Newfoundland Rescue is composed of 100% volunteers and your donation pays for animal care and education efforts.  NH&R is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.  All donations are tax deductible.
