During 2025, the organization took in 113 dogs of Bernese Mountain Dog parentage that were surrendered by their owners, transferred from shelters and partner agencies, or found as strays. Of these, 87 dogs were placed into permanent adoptive homes during 2025, with 22 remaining in foster care at year end. The organization provided veterinary care, foster housing, and rehabilitation services to all dogs in its care. 0 128590 128590 DARCY DIPLACIDO-PALMER VICE PRESIDENT 32 0 0 0 KERIANN DUBINA BOARD MEMBER 18 0 0 0 HEATHER GATES-RUSHER BOARD MEMBER 8 0 0 0 KATIE GREENOUGH BOARD MEMBER 6 0 0 0 ROBIN NICHOLS TREASURER 6 0 0 0 JENNIFER PERSHING-NEU SECRETARY 1 0 0 0 SILVIA RYAN PRESIDENT 28 0 0 0 APRIL VANBUREN BOARD MEMBER 10 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 MI Robin Nichols 321 5th Ave Holland MI 49424 6164034903 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 54824 132674 88937 72448 68364 417247 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 54824 132674 88937 72448 68364 417247 1655 415592 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 417247 321753 0.99603 1 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 10 Volunteer tracker assistance donation - lost dog recovery Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Other expenses consist of the following: veterinarian expenses $118,875.15; supplies for fosters $8,288.09; reimbursements to fosters $2,195.97; insurance $1,265.00; automobile expense $844.26; fundraising expense $523.85; PayPal fees $195.40; licenses and permits $240.00; bank service charges $108.94; travel expense $150.00; office supplies $99.99; dog purchase $190.00; over/under $123.80; hardware/software $80.00; advertising $27.40; dues and subscriptions $15.00.
