North East Rottweiler Rescue has many wonderful stories about the dogs
that have been adopted over the years. We have created this page to share recent successes all
these great dogs have had. Enjoy!!

Linus #755 was adopted by Jane & Carl of North Reading, MA
 Linus was adopted on
6/27/2000 after being fostered for a few weeks; we can’t believe how fast the years have gone by.
He was a special selection made by our female rottie Sheba who passed away from a sudden stroke on
8/3/02 at the age of 14. Since that time he has been my constant companion, I really don’t know what
we would have done if we didn’t have him in our life when we lost our beloved Sheba of ten years.
There isn’t any place I go that Linus isn’t with me; he even manages to spend the winters in Florida
with his two cats in the warm sunshine instead of being up north in the cold, he’s definitely a mama’s
boy. He loves to go fishing at night with his Dad and ends up chasing more fish in the water and playing
with them than his Dad actually manages to catch! Linus goes with me to the barn every day to see my
horse Lad and they both share a special bond as well as Linus being very horse savvy.
 He is such a
goodwill ambassador for the breed; everyone that comes in contact with him absolutely loves him! When
he meets people he greets them with a soft kiss on the hand and his wiggle bum and tail are in constant
motion. He’s such a happy dog; at age seven he acts more like a two year old, you should see his collection
of stuff animals which he knows all by name and will retrieve if you ask him to get a particular stuff animal.
I just want to say thanks to the many dedicated hard working volunteers at NERR&R for doing such a
great job with such a wonderful breed. We will definitely adopt another Rottie from NERR&R when the time comes.

Maya #1359 was adopted by Frank & Gemma of Chelmsford, MA
 Hello! It's me Maya, a.k.a. Frieda!
It's been almost 3 weeks since I've moved in with my forever family, and I am settling in comfortably!
I really LOVE my new home and my new name :-) I get LOTS of attention from mommy, daddy, my human brother
and my human sister. I love my beds....yes, beds....I have two....a memory foam bed for traveling and a
king size bed for sleeping. I also have lots of toys to play with in my BIG yard. I am fed well (still
on California Natural) and I also get treats for when I am good, which is ALL the time....especially when
I chase away the critters (i.e. rabbits, chipmunks, squirrels, etc.) that trespass in my yard!
My allergies do not seem to bother me as much as I am not scratching much. I think it also helps that
I am never alone....mommy, my brother and my sister are always home. If it is nice out and they have to
run a quick errand, I come along too! Otherwise, I stay in my cool home.....we have central air!

Zeus #702 was adopted by John and Claire of New Fairfield, CT
 Hi....My name
is ZEUS Villa....I was adopted from rescue in 2000, my mom and dad had just lost their first
rottie and decided they couldn't live without another in their home. They came to see me and
my littermates and I decided I wanted them for my family and sat in front of 'MOM' all the
time they were visiting....IT WORKED... I love to go for long car rides, mom took the middle
seat out of her van and made me a LARGE foam pad and I have the whole back all to myself when
we go on vacations or for rides.Did you know that you can go to most motels and people always
welcome me and ooh and ahh over how well behaved I am? Mom and Dad have a lot of little people
who come to visit all the time ,they call them grandchildren and great grandchildren, all I know
is that they play with me and sneak me treats and I am still trying to remember to sit still and
not become too excited when I see them .It is hard and I have to remember I am a big boy ...145
lbs...so I just wiggle and wag what they say is my rump. " I love People"....Mom thinks I am so
super smart,I love to sing with the TV ads and her stereo and sometimes she has to mute them so
she can talk on the phone,I guess i am pretty loud when I sing, all our neighbors know my voice.
Mom and dad are so good to me and I try to always be on my best behavior because most new friends
are a little afraid of my size and my breed but once they meet me they see how gentle I am.. I'm
so glad I picked them to be my 'PEOPLE'.
