Doberman Rescue of Colorado Staff:

Hello, I'm Bonnie Neuman and I have loved all kinds of animals for as long as I can remember. I have actually been rescuing animals (mostly cats) on my own for years. Most have remained with my family, while a few have ended up 20 with friends - these guys just have a way of finding me! (Maybe it's my  license plate - randomly issued - that begins with PAW?) Then, several years ago I met Chuck Vaile and my rescue work became official.

I was in fact introduced to Chuck by a beautiful, black & tan, floppy eared dog named Roger. A friend of my daughters needed to find a new home for his young dog (originally adopted from The Dumb Friends League) due to a  move out of state and a new living arrangement. I offered to help, found Doberman Rescue listed in the White Pages, and Chuck ended up placing Roger with a wonderful, new owner who recently told me what an amazing animal he is and that she is so grateful to have him in her life. After Roger led me to Doberman Rescue, I quite naturally became more active in the organization.

Since my schedule is somewhat unconventional and I travel periodically, able to plug in as needed when I'm in town. (Of course, the first dog I ever fostered never did leave and will be with me forever!) I take great personal satisfaction in my work with Dobie Rescue, whether I'm driving to the vet, visiting a shelter, or fostering a needy dog.
