National Mill Dog Rescue

A story of compassion, dedication and courage
 
 
 
 
 
In February 2007, Theresa Strader, a nurse, wife, and mother in Colorado Springs and a fan of Italian Greyhounds, heard about a dog auction in Missouri.  When she arrived, they saw a female Italian Greyhound sitting up in the back of a cage in a dark barn.  The dog was sitting on her back legs, rubbing her stomach with her front paws.  She looked Theresa square in the eyes and asked her for help.  Theresa knew that she couldn't leave the auction without #251.   ‘Lily’ as Theresa named her, was worn out, with a rotted jaw and mammary tumors along her entire left side. She had been used her whole life as a breeding dog in a puppy mill.  Lily was born, raised, and perhaps had 13 litters of puppies before being sold to Theresa for $40.
   
 
On that day, Theresa Strader single-handedly started National Mill Dog Rescue, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization incorporated in the state of Colorado, whose mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome discarded breeding dogs and to educate the general public about the cruel realities of the commercial dog breeding industry.  The commercial dog breeding industry supplies puppies for sale in pet stores and across the internet.
 
     
    
Under Theresa’s inspirational guidance, National Mill Dog Rescue has rescued more than 8,900 mill dogs from across the United States. These dogs are now living as cherished family members across the United States.
