Thank you Friends of Esmond Rottweilers
Friends of Esmond Rottweilers have donated over $17,000 to RHF over the past two years from private online auctions that they organized.  What a generous, caring, creative, competitive group of Rottweiler owners!  Our deepest gratitude to Ann Felske-Jackman for organizing and managing this fundraising effort.

  • Thanks to Michael Marlow for his recent generous donation, by taking advantage of his company's matching donation program.  Thanks also to all those ARC members who included extra funds to the RHF when renewing their ARC membership renewals.  Your continued support is most appreciated.  Also thanks to those clubs who keep Rottweiler health a big part of their overall agenda: the American Rottweiler Club, the Colonial Rottweiler Club and the Hoosier Rottweiler Club. Thank you also to all those Rottweiler owners who have made recent donations through our Memorial Registry in memory of a dear loved one... including Friends of Esmond Rottweilers in memory of 'Dylan' who also is a new inductee into the Circle 2000 Registry, as well as dear Mikey, Bear, and Luke.
