Retriever Rescue Of Colorado - Evergreen Pet Shelter

Retriever Rescue Of Colorado

RROC was created in 2006 by people who had volunteered for years with single-breed rescues and recognized the need for a group that could take any of the retriever breeds. With a shoestring budget and a handful of volunteers, the expectation was that RROC would save about thirty dogs a year. That estimate was shattered within a few months and RROC has saved well over 2000 retrievers and continues to welcome over 200 dogs in need annually.

A home visitor volunteer will stop by your home to meet with you and your entire family to avaluate the safety of the environment for and suitability for an RROC dog. 4. Your application, phone interview notes, and home visit notes gets passed along to the volunteer Matchers. The Matchers have years and years of experience in connecting the right dog with the right family. 5. We notify you when a specific dog has been matched for you and arrange a meeting between you and the foster parent and assuming it is a perfect fit and love at first site, you have a new family member.
