Our dogs love to sleep on Kuranda Dog beds, but we don't have enough for everyone. If you would like to donate a bed at a special wholesale price for a another dog to sleep in comfort, please donate a Kuranda dog bed.
Welcome to a glimpse inside the fenceline at Hundenruhe Haven Senior Dog Sanctuary and TerrierTown, a safe and happy place for dogs to live out their lives in peace and love.
The Faces of Hundenruhe
About Me
- Jodee Stahmer
- Kiel, Wisconsin, United States
- Hi, I'm Jodee. My husband, Dan, and I live here at Hundenruhe Haven Senior Dog Sanctuary and TerrierTown with 17 dogs. I am an EXCEL program support teacher for the Manitowoc Public School District, and Dan has retired from teaching. We love our farm and work very hard to ensure happiness for all of the animals in our care. All the animals who come to live here receive good food, warm and soft beds, lap time, and an overabundance of love.
Welcome!
Warriors of the Heart
We understand that the troubled souls, the weak bodied, the ancient, are having a tough go of this world. And so we step up to the loneliest plate and say, “We can take her home until it’s time. We will be her final family.”
We give some very special dogs a loving home before they leave this earth.
We commit to walking alongside these dogs until the last moments. What some people are not strong enough to do for our own pets, we choose to do for dogs we have only known for a month, a week, a day, an hour.
Fiercely we say, “I see you. I love you. You are not a number or a mistake or a victim anymore. You are mine and I will walk with you until the end.”
We are warriors of the heart.
-thanks to Kim Wolff at IMPS-MN for writing this for us
Donations
Because we are not a 501(c)3 organization, all expenses at Hundenruhe Haven are paid for out of our own meager income. Most of our residents are elderly, and require frequent veterinary care, including maintenance medications, blood tests, dental cleanings, etc. and it gets very expensive! For us to be able to continue to give the best care to the maximum number of dogs, we need some help. Donations are very welcome, and can be sent to the sanctuary at: Hundenruhe Haven, 9709 Lax Chapel Road, Kiel, WI 53042. Every bit helps - thank you!
Sponsorships
Once again, a reminder that we are NOT a 501(c)3 charitable organization, so your donation is NOT tax-deductible. That also means, by law, that we are not taking tax breaks on our expenses, either.
You can keep our pups healthy and happy by sponsoring them!

Kuranda Beds

I'm sorry, lady - I've been bad. Work has been busy and I haven't had time to check in as much as I want to. I can say that I've enjoyed reading your posts and seeing the wonderful pics, but I also know how busy you are and that keeping a blog up can be time-consuming. You'd better stay in touch through the FluffyButts chat room, though, or else I'm going to FluffyButt you like crazy (I just did - so there.) Hugs!!! ~Catherine
ReplyDeleteThank you for your efforts. My olde Sheltie had to be helped over the Rainbow Bridge a year ago, and it was excruciating to lose my friend of 15 years. I give her the credit that we managed to raise 2 fine sons. She taught them compassion & the truth that it is OK for a man to show tenderness.
ReplyDeleteThe last year was sorry & grim, although my Deary was in excellent spirits. It was me who suffered.
I think taking care of elderly & beloved pets the way you do is admirable.
During the last 3 years of my dog's life my motto was: Everyday may bring a new problem, that just means we keep looking for new solutions.
Your blog helps fill that huge hole in my heart.

I definitely want you to continue your blogs I look forward to them! Makes my days brighter!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, friends. I will continue to blog - for me, and for anyone else who likes to hear about our crazy life! :)
ReplyDeleteJodee, Yes I read it. I know how busy you are and understand it can be awhile before you get updates on here, but I look forward to the antics of the pups. Ms. Lola, now where did she think she was going? And, Barry, little booger, you tell him to stay with Grammie Esther!
ReplyDeleteGlad that you love to write, it's a real effort for me (I like to talk though :)) I like to hear about the dogs, the thought of salvaging a life is so great. As I don't have your patience, I adopt wandering kitties, they are so much less needy, however, they do eat a lot, so off I go to Fleet for another load of kitty chow.....
