About SSRR
Southern States Rescued Rottweilers, Inc. is dedicated to saving the lives of Rottweilers throughout our eleven states, but we could not fulfill that mission without the efforts of our hard working volunteers.Becoming a volunteer for SSRR is very easy. Simply fill out our Volunteer Application and submit it.
Read on to find out more about HOW YOU CAN HELP US.
FOSTER HOMES - We are currently in desperate need of
foster homes as more and more Rotties find their way into shelters.
Foster care consists of temporarily housing a Rottweiler while
providing for its basic needs such as food, water, shelter. SSRR
provides medical care of the Rottweilers in our program and our foster
homes' out of pocket expenses are limited. We require that our foster
homes keep their foster dogs indoors during their stay. Doing so helps
the Rottweiler adjust to the common household noises and smells it
will experience in its new home, and it also helps to further
determine the personality of the Rottweiler and what type of home
situation that it would do best in. We encourage crating the foster
dog when not being supervised.
HOME CHECKS - We also need people to do home checks
for us. A home visit is something that is required before an
individual is allowed to adopt
one of our Rottweilers. It
consists of going to the home of a potential adopter, checking the
dog’s proposed living conditions, asking questions outlined on our
home visit form, and basically ensuring that the home is ready and
properly equipped to handle the challenges and rewards of adding a new
dog to their home. The Home Checks are the eyes and ears of SSRR.
Performing the Home Check is what allows SSRR to place dogs in safe
and secure homes.
TRANSPORT - Transport help is of great demand in
SSRR. Since we do not limit adopters by making them choose only from
the dogs that are in their
state of residence, we often need to
arrange transport for an adopted Rottweiler to go from one state to
another. Our volunteers will fill various 'legs' of the transport as
they relay the dog across our coverage area from its current location
to its new or adoptive home. Most legs range in size from 50 to 100
miles. Before you take a road trip with your family Check with SSRR to
see if you can help transport a dog to their "Forever Home"
PUBLIC EDUCATION - Since our purpose is not only to
save Rottweilers but to educate those around us about this breed, we
often reserve booth space
at local dog events. We are always in
need of volunteers to sit at these booths to pass out promotional
material and to talk to passersby about Rottweiler rescue, the
importance of spaying and neutering, and Rottweilers in general.
ADMINISTRATIVE AREAS – There are other more
administrative areas such as fundraising, advertising, secretarial
services, correspondence, etc.
where we often find ourselves
lacking volunteers. If you can be of assistance in any of these areas
we welcome you to volunteer to fill this niche.
Anyone who truly
loves this breed can and should be involved in rescue!
It only
takes a small portion of your time, and the rewards of doing so
measure far beyond compare. If you feel this is the type of
organization you'd like to be involved with and you live in one of the
states we cover, please fill out our Volunteer Application. If you
live in a state outside of our current coverage area, there are many
other rescues that will welcome your help. SSRR is a 501(c)3
non-profit organization. Your donation is tax deductible. All
donations are used to further our rescue and educational efforts.
