2025 Grant Recipient

“We are incredibly grateful for our partnership with
MidAmerica Rottweiler Rescue. Rottweilers often struggle in a shelter setting, and having a foster based rescue that welcomes them into a home environment makes an enormous difference. Even more remarkable, they are willing to take dogs with
medical needs or behavior challenges – dogs who
might otherwise have a hard time finding placement.

By pulling these dogs from our shelter, we give
them a far better chance at a healthy, happy future.
We deeply appreciate their dedication to the breed
and their unwavering support of our work.”

– Midlands Humane Society, Nikki Cruickshank,
Executive Director

Rue’s Success Story

MARR board members found Rue as a lost dog in 2020. A dedicated MARR foster helped Rue learn to navigate the world, but had to transfer her. Several MARR board members cared for Rue and she got adopted early in 2024. Her adopter didn’t follow decompression protocol. Once a MARR dog, always a MARR dog! Rue came back to MARR foster care and was nursed through TPLO surgery and recovery. A forever person adopted Rue early in 2025 and has no regrets with this girl!

Rott Ronaldo’s Success Story

Six year old Rott Ronaldo was found by Midlands Humane Society. Committed to helping our shelter partner get close to No-Kill 2025 as a Best Friends Network Partner, MARR brought Ronaldo to our foster network.
MARR treated him for heartworm and he was adopted August 2025. Thanks to our Grey Muzzle Organization grant, he has a $1,100 stipend to ensure he is heartworm negative and get a dental cleaning.
