AFTER THE PANDEMIC RELATED DIP IN INTAKES AND A MASSIVE INCREASE IN THE INTEREST IN ADOPTIONS, WE HAVE CONTINUED TO SEE A LARGER VOLUME OF INTAKES. OUR MAIN ISSUES HAVE CONTINUED TO BE BEHAVIORAL ISSUES WITH THE MOST COMMON BEING ANXIETY, FEAR AGRESSION, AND FEAR. WE HAVE HAD TO TURN AWAY APPROXIMATELY 5-10 INTAKES PER WEEK DUE TO BEHAVIOR ISSUES AS WE HAVE ALMOST NO FOSTERS WHO WILL TAKE ON BEHAVIORAL ISSUES. IN ADDITION, THERE ARE VERY FEW ADOPTERS FOR DOGS WITH THESE ISSUES. THIS MAY RESULT IN SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASED INTAKES IN 2025. IN COMMUNITY OUTREACH, WE HAVE STOPPED TRYING TO BE THE BE-ALL, END-ALL OF ALL THINGS DOBERMAN WHICH HAS MADE OUR COMMUNITY REACH STRONGER. THE ORGANIZATION IS DOING NETWORKING THROUGH CROSS POSTING AND HAVE PUBLICIZED OUR SHIFT IN PHILOSOPHY. WE CONINUE TO BE A RESOURCE FOR THE PUBLIC TO FIND DOBERMANS THAT NEED A HOME AS WE CROSS POSTED 936 DOBERMANS AT OTHER SHELTER-RESCUES IN ARIZONA. IN SUPPORT OF COMMUNITY OUTREACH, WE DID SPAY/NEUTER 8 DOBERMANS NOT IN OUR CARE. Form 990-EZ, Part III, Line 28 ACCOMPLISHMENTS CONTD - WE ALSO SPENT TIME CLEANING UP OUR CONTACTS AND LISTS AND HAVE STARTED AN EMAIL MARKETING/EDUCATION PROGRAM. WE PLAN TO SEND 4 EMAILS PER YEAR QUARTERLY AS PART OF THIS PROGRAM. FROM THE VOLUNTEERING PERSPECTIVE, OUR VOLUNTEER LEVELS ARE DOWN A BIT. AS A RESULT, WE HAVE MADE A MORE DEDICATED EFFORT TO BETTER ENGAGE NEW VOLUNTEERS THROUGH OUR NEW VOLUNTEER COORDINATOR. WHILE WE HAVE A NEED FOR TRANSPORTERS, WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO RECRUIT MORE DOBERMAN-EXPERIENCED VOLUNTEERS FOR PHONE INTERVIEWS AND HOME VISITS. WE ESTIMATE THAT OUR VOLUNTEERS DID THE WORK OF 18 FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES IN 2024.
