Donation Wish List

 Southwest Ohio Doberman Rescue is a non-profit organization with 501(c)(3) status. We are an all-volunteer group and operate solely on donations and our own fundraising activities. 100% of all contributions go directly to the rescue, care & placement of the dogs.
     There are many ways you can help Southwest Ohio Doberman Rescue – volunteering your time or specific talent, fostering a dog, item donations, and of course, monetary donations. The average vet bill per dog is $225. You can mail your tax-deductible donation* or use the Paypal link below if you’d like to use a credit card. Please look over our “Wish List” and see how you can help.
