    AMCF Robbie Rescue logo The Animal Medical Care Foundation supports worldwide more than 80 animal shelthers in over 30 countries with medical and other care products.  It was founded by Betty Heideman.  This is the story.

    Betty Heideman was born in Utrecht in 1962, into a home already inhabited by dogs and cats.  This love of animals continued and Betty became a volunteer as a dog walker in the Hilversum shelter, as well as a foster home for birds.  Hamsters, turtles, gerbils, mice and rats also moved in!  After marriage, Quincy, a 7 yr old crossbreed from the Breda shelter became the first in a long line of adopted dogs.
