Activities or mission (Part I)

RETRIEVE A GOLDEN OF MINNESOTA (RAGOM), INC.'S MISSION IS TO RESCUE AND RE-HOME UNWANTED, ABUSED, NEGLECTED AND DISPLACED GOLDEN RETRIEVERS AND GOLDEN RETRIEVER MIXES, AND LOCATE PERMANENT HOMES FOR THEM. WE ADVOCATE RESPONSIBLE PET OWNERSHIP AND SUPPORT ANIMAL ABUSE AND NEGLECT PREVENTION PROGRAMS, AS WELL AS SPAY/NEUTER INITIATIVES. RAGOM IS A VOLUNTEER, NONPROFIT 501(C)(3) CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION. ACTIVE OPERATIONS ARE CONCENTRATED IN MINNESOTA, IOWA, NORTH AND SOUTH DAKOTA AND WESTERN WISCONSIN. IN COOPERATION WITH OTHER RESCUES, RAGOM FACILITATES ADOPTION OUTSIDE OUR OPERATIONAL TERRITORY IF THERE ARE NO ADOPTIVE FAMILIES MATCHING A PARTICULAR RESCUED DOG'S NEEDS WITHIN OUR SERVICE AREA.

  • IN 2022, RAGOM RESCUED 315 DOGS REQUIRING CARE AND PERMANENT PLACEMENT WITH ADOPTIVE FAMILIES. EACH DOG WAS PLACED WITH EITHER A FOSTER HOME OR A FOSTER-TO-ADOPT FAMILY, WHERE THEY RECEIVED CARE, VETERINARY SERVICES, AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE PLACED WITH AN ADOPTIVE FAMILY. RAGOM RESCUED 3 INTERNATIONAL DOGS FROM CHINA IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OTHER RESCUE ORGANIZATIONS. RAGOM HAS TWO OUTREACH PROGRAMS TO SUPPORT FAMILIES EXPERIENCING CHALLENGES WITH THEIR DOGS. THE FIRST PROGRAM PAYS FOR EXPENSIVE MEDICAL CARE ALLOWING THE DOG TO REMAIN WITH ITS FAMILY AS LONG AS RAGOM DETERMINES THE FAMILY IS THE BEST PLACE; THE SECOND PROGRAM PROVIDES BEHAVIOR OUTREACH SERVICES WORKING WITH FAMILIES TO OVERCOME BEHAVIOR ISSUES TO AVOID SURRENDERING A DOG. 302 DOGS WERE ADOPTED, AND THERE WERE 350 VOLUNTEERS. 284 DOGS WERE ALTERED (170 SPAYED/114 NEUTERED).
