Ruca - A Dog in Need! 
Click on the pictures to enlarge them.
Ruca has been in hospice care since Novemeber 2008. When her owner died, Ruca moved in with her owner's son in Virginia. Unfortunately, the son lost his home and
had to move into an apartment. Like many others, the apartment would not allow Dobermans so Ruca came to DAR&E in November 2008 at 12 years of age. DAR&E and her foster parent decided that she had been bounced around enough and deserved a happy home and stability at her age so she would remain in our care.
UPDATE: December 2009 Now 13, Ruca is very happy and in the picture of health. She goes for long walks and runs and plays like she was half her age.UPDATE: December 2010 Ruca is very alert and energetic - she is up early each morning demanding a walk and food :-) She loves to cuddle and play with bones, balls and just run around the house chasing her foster brother.
She has lots of energy for a dog that will be 15 on May 1st 2011.
How You Can Help Me!
While Ruca has her very own sponsor, some of our other hospice dobes do not. If you would like to help with DAR&E's hospice dogs or make it possible for us to bring in other needy Dobes, please make a tax-deductable donation to Ruca's Fund. See below for details!

DAR&EWear: Can you help?
DAR&EWear: A tax deductible donation of $15 will provide a collar and matching ID tag for each Doberman in our program. We hear stories all the time where a dog has gotten away from a foster home or from a new adopter without identification. DAR&E wants all our dogs protected and to look their absolute best for their new families. Donated DAR&EWear will go with the dog to its new furever home. If you would like to send this dog a DAR&EWear set, please make your tax deductible donation by either mailing a check to DAR&E Treasurer, 8724 Thornbrook Dr, Odenton, MD 21113 or use the Paypal link below. Your name will be listed above as the donor.

Sponsors (multiple sponsors welcome): Can you help?
Sponsorships: Tax deductible sponsorship gifts of any amount are welcome in support of our orphans. Funds are used for medical treatment and any necessary boarding. If you would like to sponsor this dog, please make your tax deductible donation by either mailing a check to DAR&E Treasurer, 8724 Thornbrook Dr, Odenton, MD 21113 or use the Paypal link below. Your name will be listed above as a sponsor. Multilpe sponsors are more than welcome for each dog.
Or click here to make your donation via secure credit card or Paypal. |
***Please do not split your donation among several dogs. Paypal deducts a fee for each transaction which means less monies going to help our dogs. While we do track the donations to the different dog funds, the donations still all wind up in the same place.
 Ruca thanks you for your support!
