doberman911.orgSpecial Needs Dobermans!

We are an all-volunteer organization of people with a common goal of helping Senior and special needs Doberman Pinschers. That need may be financial for Doberman Rescue Groups, or it may be only information and/or moral support for the owner of a Doberman with a serious illness or injury. We will also aid Rescue Groups in rehoming and fostering senior Dobermans they may place under their care. The financial aid we provide may come from donations, occasional online auctions or SND Store sales. Every precaution is taken to assure that the need is real. SND maintains an "every penny" rule which guarantees that 100% of donations to the care of Dobermans is used ONLY for that purpose. Administrative costs are covered with proceeds from our online store, by designated donations and by occasional auctions specifically for that purpose.

The Senior Doberman Project Special Needs Dobermans recognizes the difficulty in placing aging Dobermans in loving homes. Doberman rescue groups have worked tirelessly to save and care for these precious creatures, and we would like to help you find them forever homes. We publicize the plight of Senior Dobes in addition to creating a national database and website dedicated to senior Dobes in need of families. Special Needs Dobermans Senior Doberman Project provides the website for Rescue Groups for publicizing their Senior Dobes’ needs. The Doberman community is truly reaching out to address this crucial cause. Please visit our page at www.doberman911.org/seniors . Find out what's being done to help our senior friends! * * * * SND's Senior Doberman Project's * * * * Featured Senior! Meet Mr. Rocco!! Can you believe I'm 8 years old?? I'm not seeing snow on this chimney!!! Click my picture above and visit my page!! And... He'd love Sponsors while he's enjoying life!! Rocco’s big friendly spirit nearly cost him his life. He came to a shelter as a stray and immediately won over several attendants with his friendly ways. Too friendly, nearly. Encouraged by their enthusiasm for him and limited knowledge of getting to know a strange dog in a scary place, they played and hugged. During one of those hugs they apparently either squeezed a huge lump on his side or touched his snout which was hiding a painfully fractured tooth. He yelped and bit the attendant on the arm before running away. So, he was quarantined. Because of his age and appearance, and it being a shelter he was to end his days moments after the end of that quarantine. Even the sergeant-in-charge thought Rocco was getting a raw deal, that his staffer had overdone it, but rules were rules. A DRNV volunteer picked him up just hours out of incarceration and staffers were very grateful to see him get a chance. The next big question was those big lumps and what they might portend. Surgery removed two lumps, one nearly baseball-sized, and they were confirmed as benign. Careful examination showed a healthy and “clean” abdomen and chest. No cancer! His heart is strong, steady and regular. And even happier news is that when the tooth was removed so, too was the pain. He is now free to be the handsome, friendly and playful senior all good Dobies deserve to be. But, he’s still old. Visit Rocco for more pix – just click here https://doberman911.org/seniors/cases/nv_rocco.html and then send him some Sponsorship love!!! You can learn more about Mr. Rocco and many other Seniors who need your support by going to http://www.doberman911.org/seniors/cases . Here you can also help Doberman rescues across the country with their Seniors by sponsoring a Senior Doberman for $40 per month or $480 per year. Our goal is to encourage Rescues to take in more Seniors by helping them with the day to day expenses for routine medical care or just extras like nice comfy beds and toys to make their golden years the best yet. It's a great way to honor the lives of these older Dobermans, many of whom never knew love or care during their younger years. If you have any questions about Mr. Rocco or any of our other beautiful Seniors, please email us at seniors@doberman911.org . Thank you for your support!! The Senior Medical Assistance Program Special Needs Dobermans has placed a special focus on fundraising efforts to assist Senior Dobermans with their medical needs. Having provided a lifetime of love, devotion, and loyalty, these Seniors now find that they are faced with increasing debilitating medical problems. These loving seniors may be with a rescue group and seeking a forever homes or they may be in hospice care with their RescueAngels. Since the financial burden of providing necessary medical treatments is sometimes beyond the means of their caregivers, they apply to SND for financial assistance. While SND lists Seniors in Need on our General Fund Page , we must help Seniors by reaching out to the Doberman community by raising funds for the Seniors Medical Fund . This fund is exclusively for Senior Dobes in the care of Rescue Groups. Here are four beautiful Seniors who have benefited from this great program: Rommel Sage Gunther Magnum The SND General Fund Special Needs Dobermans is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation.
