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.
(316)

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.

This beautiful pair of male Rottweilers was dropped off at our facility this week. Rex, two years old, and Red, six years old, were a broken record story. Red, bought from a backyard breeder in LA, bred to the buyers female, and then a male puppy kept (Rex). (Now, a broken home, a divorce, and a landlord in a new home who will not allow either dog. Although both dogs were raised with children and extremely people friendly, ( per the owner), both of these animals are so devastated from being relinquished from what they were familiar with, I have not been able to be friend and catch either of them for two days now. It will happen, and I’m taking it slow, but they are both loose in a big yard, where I had, the owner placed them when he dropped them off. It just breaks my heart to watch them pace the fence, and wonder what’s happening. Of course, neither of them are neutered, that will be next on the agenda, after I fully vaccinate them because they’re not current on anything.God, this just makes me sick. Until then, I need to catch them, get them vetted, and get them inside. Just wanted to share a common story. They are safe. They are loved. They will need homes just like the other adoptable Rottweilers here now. Please share our page, encourage more followers, and help us prepare for the oncoming dump season, which is always worse than the normal year during the holidays. Love you all and thank you for your continued support team ROF.👍🙏🐶

Posting some more cute happy tales! We love when you send photos.. The cute upside down dog is.Candy. She was adopted months ago, and recently came back for her heartworm treatment. She is loved dearly and we appreciate her new mom choosing a long-term pity resident. The group photo includes several of our puppies from last year that are now grown, especially one of our favorites,”Snoot”. And of course, we remind you that ROF rescues, hundreds of cats per year. The beauty pictured was taken home tonight by one of our wonderful volunteers. This cat was a feral, that we trapped and she was much too friendly to release after she was spayed. As you can see, she has settled right into home life! Please continue to share our page to help place more animals. Thank you team ROF.
