Rescue FAQs

Red Lake Rosie’s Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization formed in 2006 on the Red Lake Reservation in northwestern Minnesota. Its mission is to decrease the overpopulation of companion animals and to educate the residents in humane care and treatment.

Karen G., a Native American who lives on the reservation, had been rescuing about a dozen dogs a year and distributing food to starving dogs when she decided that she had to do something that would enable her to help more animals. She founded Rosie’s and named the rescue after a dog that she rescued in 1998. Karen cares for an average of 50-100 dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens daily in her shelter.

At her home/shelter, Karen has built outdoor dog/puppy kennels on her property, and she houses cats, kittens, and small puppies in an older building. All of the animals at Rosie’s must be transported to rescues in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area 270 miles away, since there are very few potential adoptive homes in the rural communities near the reservation.

There is a small group of about 15 people in the Twin Cities, who support Karen’s efforts by arranging placements for the animals with local rescue organizations, assisting with transport, and raising funds.
