Save Rocky the Great Dane Rescue and Rehab aka Srgdrr Inc

We are a Great Dane and Great Dane Mix Rescue and Rehab in honor and memory of Rocky the Great Dane killed by Hernando County, Florida Animal Services.

SRGDRR is staffed completely by volunteers. Like all humane groups, SRGDRR is in the unique position of helping both humans and pets. In our case, the pets are Great Danes and Great Dane Mixes, and the people are those who have or want the companionship of the breed or, often, just dogs in general. SRGDRR helps people to:

Determine the right breed of dog for their lifestyle.
Find healthy and companionable Danes that fit their circumstances.
Find loving replacement homes for Danes they can no longer keep.
Become knowledgeable about the care and training of their Great Danes.
Resolve their Danes physical/behavioral problem.
Overcome the grief at the loss of their loved pet.
Stretch their tax dollar by assuming the Dane burden from public shelters.
SRGDRR helps Danes:

By providing for the rescue and care of those who have been abandoned, neglected, and/or abused by their previous owners.
We spay/neuter and provide medical treatment as necessary to return the Dane back to good health.
We also supply training/socialization to ensure their adaptability to new, good homes.
We work to place rescue Danes to people who provide secure, loving, and healthy homes.
SRGDRR spends an average of $400 per Dane/Dane Mix that enters through our doors. In order for us to continue providing the best care and vetting for our Danes, we need donations and adoptions.

Your donations help us make sure that every Great Dane in our care gets the medical help that he or she needs. We are all volunteers at SRGDRR Inc aka Save Rocky the Great Dane Rescue and Rehab - every dollar that we receive in donations helps us help them get the care and vetting they deserve.
Did you know that:
A $10.00 donation buys a bag of treats for an abandoned unwanted Dane.
A $15.00 donation buys a toy - sometimes it's the first ever!
A $25.00 donation buys a month's supply of heartworm meds or flea treatment.
A $50.00 donation buys a 35 lb. bag of dog food which equates to almost a month of food for one.
A $100.00 donation pays for a complete set of shots.
A $250.00 donation pays for a spay or neuter.
A $500.00 donation partially pays for heartworm treatment for an infected Dane.
It's an expensive business rescuing the unwanted and neglected Great Danes. Our adoption fees only cover some of our expenses. We rely on donations so that we can provide for our Great Danes and give them the best we possibly can.
Thank you for your support and love for our Danes in need.

Mission Statement

Save Rocky the Great Dane Rescue and Rehab is a national 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and re-homing of Great Danes, Great Dane mixes, and other breeds that have been abused, neglected and/or abandoned. We are also dedicated to the education of pet guardians and citizens as to the needs of domesticated animals to maintain balanced healthy lives.

SRGDRR was founded in honor and memory of Rocky the Great Dane, whom we tried desperately to save in June 2013. Despite all of our efforts and offers of rehabilitation, he was irresponsibly and needlessly euthanized on June 12, 2013. Every sweet dog that enters our rescue will be provided with the care and love that Rocky was denied. Every dog we save will be in his memory and honor. For those of you who don't know Rocky's story........please keep reading...............Rocky is a 3 year old Great Dane that was owner surrendered June 1, 2013 to the Hernando County Animal Shelter in Brooksville, Florida for biting the owner's boyfriend and requested euthanization after 10 day quarantine. This same owner adopted Rocky from this same shelter in May 2012. He was brought in at that time with a female Dane named Emma. In May 2012 rescue tagged Rocky and Emma for rescue but while awaiting transport the shelter allowed Rocky and Emma to be adopted out separately thus cancelling all rescue efforts. We have rescue again ready to take Rocky and he would be going to a wonderful ranch on 7 acres that is completely fenced in. He would be the only dog in the fenced in area and he would be rehabilitated to be the Great Dane he was meant to be. We have offered our rescue services to the Vet on site at Hernando County Animal Shelter and they have refused. They have refused our animal behavior specialists entrance to assess him. Please help us fight to save Rocky from euthanization by having him properly assessed and rescued and rehabilitated. Rocky has gained media attention with his story and we pray for a happy ending for this big boy! Thank you and please share and repost as much as you can. Rocky's time is up on June 9, 2013.
