Welcome

IMPORTANT NOTICE EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 2024

"The current officers and directors have voted to temporarily close and discontinue operation of SADAR and are only adopting out the Dobermans we now have. We are not intaking any new dogs.

Currently, SADAR might be looking for new leadership who can take over. You need to have a financial source or resources to operate this rescue as well as the time to take care of the dogs and kennels. If we are unable to accomplish this, SADAR will discontinue to operate as a Doberman rescue. Take note that SADAR is a 501 (c) 3 non profit organization for tax exempt purposes."

THINKING ABOUT ADOPTING?

To All those who are serious about adopting one of our Dobermans, please read our philosophy before contacting us:

People underestimate the time and effort required to make a successful life with a dog or have little understanding of a dog's world. Your dog needs and deserves your empathy. As in any relationship it takes work and can try your patience. There are no guarantees with any dog. Do you have the time and patience to meet your dog's need for exercise, companionship, and healthy growth? Far too often dogs are victims of unrealistic expectations. Your job isn't to train the dog to live like you, but to train yourself to live with the dog! Remember, dogs are not nearly concerned with what you say, but how you make them feel.

SADAR is a rehabilitation/rescue facility for Dobes that have been abandoned, rejected, and many times abused. We do some work with our guests but we can't do everything. If you are still in doubt whether the Doberman is the right breed for you, go to our Education link and read more about this magnificent dog.
