Welcome to Retrievers & Friends of Southern California, Inc.
(RFSC) We are an all-volunteer, non-profit organization
devoted to finding homes for Golden Retrievers & Labrador
Retrievers, as well as other breeds of dogs as space allows.
Can you provide a foster home or forever home to a pet in need?
Heed the call to make a difference by opening your heart and your
home, today!
Help us name this Pony
 |
RFSC rescued this sweet old pony recently.
He was abandoned in a nursery in Riverside.
He is a kind, gentle, older fellow.
He
closes his eyes in delight when we brush him.
We are asking for help with a name for this
special boy.
Visit our Facebook page
and make a suggestion for his name. So
far, we have considered Harold, Walter and Stanley.

|
He will be looking for a new
home as soon as we put some weight on him and
perform some minor veterinary care.
We are looking for
donations to help with his feed and veterinary
care. Please consider a small donation to
assist with his care.

Hailey
 |
Hailey is a
beautiful Great Pyrenees. She was living
chained up to a tree when we heard about her. As you
can see in her photo, she had a very large mammary
tumor. It was very heavy, hanging almost to
the ground when she is standing. It would
swing side to side when she walked.
We were
very happy to be able to help Hailey. We knew
it would not be easy and that Hailey would need
extra help before and after surgery.
Thanks to our wonderful veterinarian, Hailey had
surgery on April 23. Hailey has received the
best care and this is the first step in helping
Hailey gain her health.
Hailey has a soft and gentle temperament.
Every person she meets is a friend. We are
praying for the right home for Hailey when she is
ready. |
Anyone
that would like to partner with us in helping Hailey would
be greatly appreciated. Please visit our
Donations page to help Hailey.
Daisy

Daisy was adopted
from RFSC 6 years ago. She is now 12 years old
and has earned her Canine Good Citizen title.
Daisy is all ready to go
on hospital therapy visits.
We are so proud
of Daisy!!

RFSC is
looking for a volunteer to help with grant
writing.

|
We have identified some potential grants
that could really make a difference at
Retrievers and Friends. We are looking for
a volunteer with strong writing and
organizational skills. Please send us an
email if you would like to help out. |
RFSC's Mobile Vet Clinic...

We wanted to share a picture of our mobile spay/neuter clinic.
We recently hosted a spay/neuter clinic in Riverside. We were able to spay and neuter more than 20 dogs and cats that belonged to the homeless.
The animals were provided the much needed surgeries at no cost
in order to prevent future litters. RFSC volunteers know
that we cannot adopt our way out of the over population problem.
We are trying to do all that we can in order to be part of the
solution.
We pray for a day when all animals have a loving home.
Until then, we would be grateful for
donations to support this much needed program.
Please visit our spay/neuter page for details and to take a look at
our beautiful clinic on wheels!

Vineyard Veterinary
UPDATE: Our friends at
Vineyard Veterinary Hospital are having an open
house on Saturday May 18 from 12:00 - 4:00 pm.
RFSC will be there with some pets that are
looking for their forever home. Please
come buy and meet everyone !!
We
are often asked what the rescue "needs". We always need
bleach and
laundry
detergent.
We are always doing laundry. Part of the
challenge is finding time to pick up donations when someone
offers.
Our
wonderful friends at
Vineyard
Veterinary have offered to help out.
If anyone
wants to donate items, they can be dropped off at
Vineyard Veterinary
