Rescue
Each year, hundreds of Dobermans are given up to shelters across the country by owners who can no longer keep them for a variety of reasons. In addition, hundreds of others are saved from certain death at the hands of cruel and abusive caretakers. In other cases, organized rescue groups remove breeding adults and puppies from deplorable puppy mill situations. And always there are those who stray far from home and live on unfamiliar streets.
With proper care and training and huge amounts of unconditional love, these Dobermans get second chances to lead full, enriching, and productive lives as devoted companions.
If you are not interested in conformation showing and simply want a wonderful companion for you and your family, please consider opening you home to an adopted Dobe. You will be saving a life while greatly enhancing your own.
The Pine Tree State Doberman Pinscher Club works closely with the non-profit Doberman Rescue Unlimited, Inc., in Sandown, NH.
Visit them and some of their available Dobes at www.dru.org.

IN MEMORY OF CLAIRE KONTOS – MAY 13, 1962 – MARCH 4, 2017
DRU FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT
On behalf of DRU’s Board of Directors we are utterly devastated to announce that DRU’s founder and President, Claire Kontos, passed away suddenly this past weekend. We and the staff and volunteers of DRU are heartbroken at the passing of this wonderful woman who dedicated her life to animals and Doberman Pinschers in particular. She rescued countless Dobes in her 30 years of rescue work and brought joy to thousands of adopters who came to DRU for a new family member. She began rescuing Dobes out of her home and was elated when the DRU shelter was built 20 years ago. That allowed DRU to keep up to 50 Dobes safe and healthy before being adopted. DRU was her life’s work and all of us were honored to work with such a dedicated and beautiful individual. Claire’s passing is such a profound loss to the Doberman rescue world. She was Dobe rescue’s greatest advocate and she will be remembered always for her selfless work on behalf of our favorite breed. We will love, miss, and remember you always dear Claire – not only were you DRU’s President but you were also our best friend.
