Title
Special Needs Dobermans - Helping Owned AND Rescue Dobes! Visit Our New Store!
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Special Needs Dobermans grew out of an effort by Grace Joffe to respond to the needs of a very special (aren't they all!) Dobie in California. Grace and her husband, Jeff, had devoted a big part of their lives breeding and showing the champion line of Liquorish Dobermans. Although now retired and living in Florida, in July 2001 Grace became interested in a Doberman-in-need case in California. Dutchess, a beautiful 7 year old rescue Dobie that had been adopted by a loving family, developed type one diabetes. The family could not afford the necessary expensive treatments. Grace, working with Candy Sangster (a Dobie lover in California), did some in-depth checking with the family and located a vet willing to treat Dutchess. Grace made a commitment to cover the vet bills with her own credit card until she could raise the necessary contributions. From this successful campaign to support a Doberman with special needs, it became clear to Grace and her friends that there existed an ongoing need to provide financial assistance to such Dobermans. Linda Tuttle established the Yahoo list to facilitate communications and we were off and running. We had the beginning of an organization with a focus on fundraising and providing financial assistance on a national basis.
