We are located in Deleon Springs, Florida. We have a farm with many different types of animals. We have always rescued and re-homed farm animals and birds of all different types. We have had Rottweilers in our home for many years.
On October 23, 2001, we lost our beloved female Rottweiler, Tava at the age of 8, to bones cancer. Through this painful experience of losing Tava, we felt a strong need to rescue this precious breed in honor of Tava. Tava gave us such devotion, love, loyalty, security and most of all, her kind and loving heart of such a true and powerful love. Whether we had good days or bad, Tava was always there to comfort us through anything.
We started our Rottweiler rescue efforts November of 2001, with crates for each of the rescue Rottweilers to building large concrete runs for their comfort and happiness. To know these Rottweilers are away from harm; whether in some cases of abuse, abandonment, hunger, not wanting them to so many other reasons of there pass history. To see these Rottweilers playing in the house and running around our 5 acres is a sight of pure joy. We look into their eyes and see such love they are begging to give their newly adopted family and us.
Our Mission
WeCare Rottweiler Rescue, Inc. has no shelter and no office, yet we are available through our web site and by phone. We are devoted to saving Rottweilers. Our mission is to provide charitable and educational services in the form of quality shelter and care of these precious Rottweilers who have been abused, neglected, abandoned or surrendered. We bring these rescue Rottweilers into our home, we try to find new and permanent homes for them. Our Rottweilers we save come from dog control shelters, humane societies and relinquish families. Most of them would be euthanized without our intervention.
WeCare Rottweiler Rescue, Inc. is committed to controlling the huge pet overpopulation by spaying or neutering prior to adoption to prevent the cycle of overpopulation from continuing. Our Rottweilers are also vaccinated and placed on heartworm and flea preventative if they are heartworm negative. If a Rottweiler tests positive for heartworms, it is treated before it goes to its new home. All other physical ailments if the Rottweiler has, such as ear infections, eye infection, are treated prior to placement. Each Rottweiler is housetrained and given basic obedience before adoption. We do everything within our power to ensure that the Rottweilers we place are healthy.
We can not guarantee specific congenital or hereditary disorder defects occur in any of these Rottweilers, such as hip dysphasia, leg disorders, elbows, eyes, cancer or any other known congenital or hereditary disorder problems of the Rottweiler breed. The testing for this is very expensive and we do not have the funds to provide such testing.
We perform a temperament test on each Rottweiler to ensure the Rottweiler is temperamentally sound. Rottweilers who do not pass our temperament test or who have a bite history are not accepted into our home. While our dogs are in our home they are further evaluated. This allows us to see how well the individual Rottweiler does while in a comfortable environment. We are also able to see if the Rottweiler can get along with other dogs, children..for better placement.
We feel it is important for any known history on our Rottweilers, whether it is medical or abusive background if known, to be given to the prospective adopter. We feel this is important to the adopting family to help serve the Rottweiler better as well as their veterinarian.
We give advice to potential and current Rottweiler owners through the internet, mail or phone of proper care, health issues, training and behavior issues.
Our policy requires that an adoption application be completed before adopting a Rottweiler. Potential adopters are required to provide a veterinarian reference as well as the names of three other people who will give a reference for them. We ask that potential adopters allow a home visit, and we prefer that the home have a fenced yard. A Rottweiler is matched with the adopter's lifestyle and family if we determine the home is a healthy and loving environment . WeCare Rottweiler Rescue does require a donation of $200.00. The donation is strictly used to spay or neuter, vaccinate, feed, preventatives, educational and provide medical care for future Rottweilers. Our Rottweiler Rescue is supported totally through donations. All donations are used to further our rescue and educational efforts.
We are a Non-Profit 501(c)3 organization, your donations are tax deductible.
My beloved "Tava" was the inspiration behind WeCare Rottweiler Rescue, Inc. and still guilds me in the direction of helping other Rottweilers.
On October 23, 2001, "Tava" left my side to join those at the rainbow bridge.
At the age of 8, she was stricken with Bone Cancer. "Tava" was the most loving girl, as well as loyal, kind, caring, the qualities we look for in a companion dog.
Now by my side is Inga my other very special girl in my life. Inga has taught me that I can love another just as great, and still have the loving memories of "Tava" especially those wonderful fun times "Tava" and I had together. "Tava" is alive in my heart, soul and will always be with me. She smiles down on us.
Inga came to me in October 2001. Inga has helped me, through her sensitivity, warm heart and understanding, to see just how lucky I am to have been blessed with such caring, wonderful and loving girls.
On March 23, 2003, our Inga joined Tava at the Rainbow Bridge. Our beloved Angel girls are together guilding us through our rescue efforts.
