JUST ANNOUNCED: OUR 10 "SUPPORT A SWEETHEART" ANIMALS |
|
As we announced last week, we have created Walk pages for 10 of our long-term furry friends in our shelter. For every $5 donors like you give towards their Walk pages, we’ll post a Valentine heart on their cage in their honor.
Each pet’s individual Walk fundraising goals will correlate with its estimated cost of care during its time at the shelter – from approximately $150 for a healthy adult cat to over $800 for a dog diagnosed with heart worm disease.
It is our hope that this effort will help get these deserving dogs, cats, and pocket pets into loving homes by Valentine’s Day, but we also hope to show our community how much of an impact every cent of their donation has towards the lives of these wonderful animals.

Below are links to their individual profiles, and here is a link to the full Pack Page. Please check them out! |

SICK? TRY PRESCRIPTION DOG
The strain of flu virus that is circulating is a doozie. For those of you who have caught the bug, we wish you a speedy recovery! If over-the-counter medicine has not been doing the trick, this week's featured sponsor, Zoetis, has a suggestion... prescription DOG! |
