                             A Note from Marley

 

 Do you have a story and photo you would like to share

about your  OPR adopted pup or dog?  We're looking for some laughs, maybe some tears, how they have changed your life, how they have touched your heart.  We will post your photo on our home page and story to the Your OPR Adoption Story page to share with all of our visitors.  Maybe, just maybe, you'll inspire someone to share their life with a homeless dog. Please send a photo and your story to: OhioPuppyRescue@aol.com

 

 

                         

           OPR Spay/Neuter Project!

2009 was a year of great success and impact on the community through Ohio Puppy Rescue. We created the OPR Spay/Neuter Fund.  This is currently a collaboration with animal agencies in Pike and Scioto Counties, as well as Shawnee Animal Hospital, to sponsor spay and neuters for those less fortunate.  In order to continue our efforts in supporting our community and the pet over population, additional funding is required.  We need continuous and generous donations in order to sustain our life-changing work into 2010 and future years.  Please consider a donation to enable our work to continue! Donations can be made by adopting one of our wonderful rescues or directly through PayPal If you wish to send a check, please contact us via email for a mailing address.

I just love your little Aussie pups! I have a 10 year-old Aussie mix and she is the love of my life :-) I really admire you all for taking in the puppies despite their special needs, the world needs more people like you.

Some "rescue" sites are better than others. This one seems to be one of the very best! I just completed my application to adopt one of your little "angels". Every living being needs love......what a good place to start! Blessings!

Message From: Tannesha April 16, 2010
Love your site! Hope the pups get great homes.

Message From: Barb Sims March 18, 2010
I truly think what you do makes you angels! I wish all the time I had the room and time to help just as you do. Thank You for helping those who cant help themselves!

Wonderful pets I am looking for a dog and would like to adopt from a shelter.

Hello. This is my first foray into the Puppy Rescue realm. I have purchased dogs from the Humane Society and from Breeders. This time I wanted to help out a puppy that needed me. I am looking forward to adopting a puppy soon. Thanks for the opportunity.

Message From: Angela January 23, 2010
Lovely animals. I have been searching for a dog to add to our family. I loved your puppys and will soon be making a 3hr trip to see them.

Message From: Susan November 12, 2009
Thank you Bonnie for being the kind of person who loves animals. I check the web site daily to see who is needing a home and loving family. The life that OPR gives these little sweethearts is wonderful. I adopted my little Snowball in July and don't know what I would do without him now.

Saving a puppy is like saving a child they just need love and attention.

Message From: Toni October 28, 2009
Blessed are the animal lovers. Blessed are the ones who rescue the animals for they shall see be comforted.

Message From: Connie October 27, 2009
I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate the fact that OPR rescues these precious animals and are able to find them great homes. Most of my pets are and have been rescues. You can love them as much as the animals you purchase from breeders, plus you are saving a life and helping an animal who has most of the time been neglected, mistreated and even hurt by previous owners. I rescued a Cockapoo from the streets, one of the smartest dogs I've ever had. She had mange and was pregnant; and killed the neighbor's chickens! No one wanted her. But, she was easily treated and recovered quicikly, all puppies placed, and behavior modified by just loving her and working with her. She was a very quick learner. Simple spaying helped tremendously! Then everyone wanted her! Pet rescues have already taken care of these things. I now have two Chihuahuas who were also rescued off the streets, one is quite old now. Both were severely neglected; one had a broken leg and crushed pelvis, the other had almost no hair and open sores on the skin. Both were easily treated. They are absolutely precious! I couldn't have hand picked better pets. There were also many more very delightful rescues. All it takes is understanding and patience to train an animal and make him/her the pet of your dreams. I just want to encourage those who are thinking about adopting a rescue dog or puppy to go ahead and adopt. The adoption fee is very well spent and very reasonable. The rescue organization is not making a profit. You would spend more if you bought the pet from a breeder with added expenses of vet visits, including spay/neuter charges, which , by the way have sky rocketed! Plus the organization/foster is already addressing behavioral issues, i.e. housetraining, shyness, aggression and other issues. They can tell you much more about the pet's personality than you can learn from a breeder. The most important thing is you are saving a life. You will not regret it! - Connie B

All your little dogs are so sweet and luvable! I am hardpressed to narrow it down to one!

Message From: Dawn Claytor, Treas, Pike County Humane Society October 23, 2009
This is a great site. Hope we may be able to collaborate with your organization.

Little dogs are the best!

My husband and I adopted Marta (now know as Ellie) on 8/6/09. We've only had her one day, and she has totally captured our hearts. Bonnie was so wonderful to work with. We felt an immediate connection with her, and could feel how much she loves what she is doing.

Would love to see pictures or get any updates from Beanie's siblings who were rescued from the Athens County shelter. Loved hearing and seeing pictures of Tressel, nka Molly. Thanks!

Message From: Colin November 26, 2008
Beanie is the BEST!

Message From: Alison August 5, 2008
Louie is a special guy that was rescued by a wonderful person. We can't thank Bonnie enough for allowing us to share our lives with him. Thank you for what you do!

Message From: Steve July 24, 2008
We adopted Penny through Ohio Puppy Rescue, and couldn't be more delighted -- She's such a sweetheart! We are happy to recommend OPR to friends looking to adopt.

Message From: Darla July 2, 2008
We adopted Toley from OPR earlier this week. Our family loves him so much and we really appreciate how professional and helpful Bonnie was. Toley is a wonderful addition to our family. We will refer people to OPR in the future! The Minamyer Family- Dublin, Ohio

We adopted Buddie thru Ohio Puppy Rescue just about a month or so ago, and oh boy do we LOVE him! He was family right away, and Bonnie was just fabulous to work with. Hoping we get to work together again soon!
