The Rottweiler Welfare Association, is a not-for-profit organisation, started in 1979 to find good homes for Rottweilers. The association is completely run by volunteers and is a registered charity since 1981. We firmly believe that a dog deserves to get a second chance and find its forever home. The aims of the association are to: Rescue abandoned and neglected Rottweilers and help those who are unwanted. Provide all necessary care, treatment and rehabilitation. Assess these dogs for adoptability and find suitable homes for them. The dogs we rescue are given up for many reasons: now an adult and no longer the cute puppy this dog is perceived as a nuisance and is simply abandoned. A dog is neglected due to the owner not being able to afford the veterinary fees or food for it to eat. Others need to be helped to find new homes due to the owner dying or being terminally ill, the loss of a job or home, a child developing an allergy, a couple having a baby, a family break up and those who are moving house and are unable or unwilling to take the dog with them. Then of course there are the cruelty cases, dogs beaten for no reason, or shut up in a shed all day or left tied to a lamppost. It is our policy to ensure that these Rottweilers get a chance to start a new life and be loved.
