"Kathie Sturley⁩ and  the amazing crew from DRDR. Thank You all, the experience has been exceptional. You've all provided guidance to all fosters and adopters alike. The community spirit is amazing, as are all the beautiful doggies in everyone's care. 


In Hawaiian culture, a person who cares for a dog or other pet is called a kahu, rather than an owner. The word means guardian, protector, caretaker, or honored attendant—someone trusted with something precious rather than holding property. 


As Rosie's Kahu, I promise to provide safekeeping and love for a cherished member of our family. She's an absolute hunny, and deserves nothing less.


Kathie, a special thanks for knowing what my soul needed to heal from the loss of my beloved Finnigan. I truly feel Rosie was a gift from him. His spirit will live on in her care. "

"I think it's a wonderful Rescue with very dedicated and compassionate people involved running in it. If it wasn't for Death Row Dog Rescue, many helpless, neglected, and abused dogs wouldn't likely survive or know what it's like to be loved and cared for. I appreciate all that they do and they go far above and beyond to do what they can to save these dogs and find them loving homes ❤️."
