Mission Statement

The purposes of this organization shall be to provide education to hobbyists and professionals in various aspects of the professional white dove release business; monitor and influence legislation relative to laws and proposed laws that might affect the white dove release business. NWDRS shall, particularly, promote the public service of education of the public, as well as our members relative to the ethical and humane treatment of pigeons, particularly as they relate to the white dove release business.

This shall include responding to calls regarding found white pigeons in a member's vicinity, whether their own bird or an unknown bird. The public image of caring, ethical and responsible bird owners is very important for the dove release industry. NWDRS members are expected to respond to such calls appropriately, which shall mean advising the public on options available to them for found birds, including help finding the owner (if possible), feed and release when well, or transfer to a third party willing to take the bird. It is required that NWDRS members retrieve their own birds when found. Failure to do so on two reported occasions will be grounds for canceling and refunding membership fee.

NWDRS shall provide an online forum that is available to associate members. GOLD NWDRS shall also promote its professional members through a web site listing of said members. This web site listing shall be available to the public at large.
