The frustration of being proud

This blog post may be taken in a negative light but I think it is essential to clarify a few things about Woodrock Animal Rescue. We have recently had an interview with a member of the media which portrayed Woodrock in a particularly misrepresented light.

Woodrock Animal Rescue are different because they are Nicholas and Estelle Meldau, two individuals who were brought up amongst much poverty and in charitable homing systems. They are proud above all else and find it very difficult to ask for support. I, L Meldau am there child and I have witnessed the hardship first hand that they experience on a day to day basis, so it is rather frustrating when people don't think they need financial support because they are able to financially support it without external help.

These proud people put every single cent they earn into their rescue. They work like any other person in full time jobs but go out of their way to help every animal they can as well as a a number of people which I will tell you about in another post.

Anyway the point of this blog is that Woodrock do need help. We are not these wealthy  sometime animal lovers that can have animals dumped on us as a permanent solution. We pride ourselves on the fact that our dogs don't have a time limit in which they have to find a home or be put down but all the more reason why we need sponsorship. We have been in the industry for a very long time and are not in it for the money but for the animals. Our adoption fees are reasonable and we do much rescue without the marketing rampage of many other centers.
