Being a Foster Parent is the most
rewarding and generous thing one can do to help further our
endeavors. We have spent thousands this past year to board our
rescues because we do not have a facility to care for them. The
cost of boarding is more than half of our budget for the year.
Foster Homes are the only way we have to cut back on this
expense there by making those funds available to be used to save
other Rottweilers that need Veterinary care.
Fostering is something one can do without incurring any
financial burden, yet help us to deter the costs incurred when
having to board a dog while waiting for the right home to come
along.
Fostering also helps us to get a clearer and more accurate
picture of the type of dog that we have, making it easier to
place the dog in the right home. GGARR will
provide the foster family with veterinary care, food and any
other supplies that are needed to provide the proper care for
their foster dog.
Fostering is a wonderful way to help many dogs and GGARR without any financial burden or long term commitment,
and still enjoy the companionship and love that one of our dogs
can give you. This is by far the most rewarding donation you
will ever make.

Many of our dogs are adopted by families that live
outside of the South Florida area. When an adoption is approved
for someone in a city where the dog needs to be transported to,
we organize what is know as a Rottweiler Railroad.
The Rottweiler Railroad consists of a plan to
move a dog from one place to another by organizing a group of
volunteers that sign up for a piece of the trip. Each person
agrees to transport the dog from point A to point B where they
will then meet the next volunteer that will then do the same.
This technique is used to help people that want to adopt but
cannot make the entire trip themselves in a weekend or when a
dog needs to be rescued and brought to us in South Florida from
another part of the state or country Each leg of the trip is
planned in advance and volunteers offer to cover a specific
territory.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN SIGNING UP TO BE A
TRANSPORTER PLEASE CONTACT Leslie at ldavies43@comcast.net
Please include where you live and how far you
might be willing to travel. We will also need your name and
phone number. When a transport is being organized you will be
contacted to see if you are available at that time.
GGARR is funded solely by the generosity of
people like yourself that are interested in helping to provide
assistance to abandoned, abused or neglected Rottweilers.
We are an 501C3 non profit organization the will provide
you with a tax deductible receipt for any donation made.
