Golden Retriever Rescue Southern Nevada
Every Second Tuesday of every month, Desert Diva Dogs hosts “Pins for Paws” a bowling fundraiser benefiting animal rescues.
On July 10, 2018, Donna Schneider, a top producing agent in the ERA Las Vegas office, and fellow realtors at ERA Brokers Consolidated celebrated a great night supporting and raising money for her favorite charity, The Golden Retriever Rescue of Southern Nevada (GRRSN). The organization provides a rescue program for abandoned, mistreated, or unwanted golden retrievers. GRRSN does not breed or sell animals.
The organization was established in 2003 becoming a non-profit all volunteer organization that has rescued over 3,000 Golden Retrievers and many other dogs in need. Donna, who is a proud foster dog owner of 3 goldens; is also a supporter and volunteer to help foster displaced dogs until they find a “forever home”. Donna’s first rescue was 12 years ago and is equivalent to how long she has personally been a part of the organization.
All monies raised went to the rescue to help off-set the medical costs that include spay and neuter for incoming goldens who are now in need of a forever home.
Donna says “My heart breaks a little more each time I see the face of a golden who gets dropped off or rescued from a bad breeder who are just lost souls and want and need love and a home—it’s incredible to know that my efforts along with so many other volunteers throughout the year help these “kids” find a family—it’s a blessing for sure!”
The GRRSN helps dogs get transported from shelters into their facility who does not have a brick and mortar shelter. Volunteers are needed to foster the dogs while waiting for a home or while healing an illness that the GRRSN provides medical care for. Volunteers also help with the process applications for prospective families, evaluation of the prospective families and the safety of their homes—and the list goes on and on.
GRRSN has never had to turn away any dog in need for any reason, and that is in part due to the numerous fundraisers that are held.
