About Nor Cal Weim Rescue
Our Mission Statement
| Northern California Weimaraner Rescue (NCWR) is a non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to the overall welfare of Weimaraners. We strive to rescue, rehabilitate and place abandoned, neglected or whose families can no longer provide care for them. NCWR attempts to educate prospective and current owners about the breed and responsible pet ownership, while working cooperatively with animal shelters and individuals. While in NCWR care, Weimaraners receive routine medical care, are spayed or neutered and are evaluated by an NCWR volunteer for placement in the most suitable, permanent, loving home. We also offer ongoing assistance to adopting families to help overcome behavioral and training problems. Our goal is for every Weimaraner to become a beloved, contributing family member. NCWR gratefully acknowledges and recruits volunteer help throughout the entire process. Our work is only possible because of caring individuals and tax-deductible donations. One hundred percent of all donations to NCWR go to the care, rescue, veterinary attention and other essential items, including administration and documentation for rescued Weimaraners. |
How we do what we do
| Northern California Weimaraner Rescue is a group of Weimaraner lovers who are concerned about the welfare of Weimaraners who have lost their homes and need to find new responsible loving homes. We cover the areas of North and Central California and also work closely with Weimaraner rescue groups in Southern California, Arizona, Idaho, Utah, Nevada and Oregon. We are made up of volunteers who are familiar with the Weimaraner breed and who donate many hours of their time and money to make sure these grey friends who have fallen on hard times find loving homes. We are not able to place every dog, but we do have a very good success rate. All dogs are spayed and neutered before placement. They receive vet care, if needed and are current on vaccinations. Our volunteers are available to help with any questions or problems that may arise when Weimaraners are placed in new homes. Perhaps you have decided that a puppy just is not the best choice for your lifestyle. Perhaps the idea of giving a homeless Weimaraner a second change at a family of his own appeals to you. Our list of rescue dogs changes frequently and we might just have the dog for you. |
| "Why are you asking me to pay a $350 fee for a dog you listed on your site and I picked up from the owner?" Our fees are not based on individual dog's costs. They are based on what we need to run our overall rescue efforts. We spend very little on some rescue dogs and have spent $5000+ on others. Our vet bills for 2008 were more than $40,000. Vet bills are 95% of our expenses as we have almost no overhead and are an all volunteer organization. |
