Bump.

Great cause, please take a minute and donate if you like dogs as much as I do, tis the season! It's more rewarding than another piece of cardboard I promise.

Many thanks, Jeff. The doggies appreciate it. (as well as everyone who has helped and/or put up with our forum cause.)

And closer to home here is Gigi. She was picked up at the Garland Kill Shelter....then after 3 months and a dog behaviorist failure I was told to bring her back to the Shelter labeled as dangerous....and she would be put down. So I adopted her She is a great doggie but doesn't get along well with other doggies, especially ones she doesn't know. Here is when I picked up pictures and now pictures....The shaved spots are where the shots were given for her heartworms. She was strong positive.

Leon,

In part as a result of your efforts, my wife and I have become volunteers at a dog and cat rescue organization near our home in Falls Church, Va. Walking dogs provides us great satisfaction. I only wish I had realized this passion when I first retired (2005).

I mention this so that other members who like pets can consider volunteering in their communities, if not during your careers, then upon retirement.

You're doing God's work.

Mark

Bumping this thread from 2019!

Going through some old threads and looked like this needed a bump. I've got 2 smaller items for sale over in the memorabilia section I will donate $20 from each sell to benefit the dogs.

Thanks!
Michael

I haven't spoken with Bill in a few? years. Not sure how everything is going or if he is involved any longer. He did some great work and I know our donations helped a lot.

I still do a lot of rescue locally for one super awesome rescue. I am a foster (one of quite a few) and the ladies who run it are saints, in my book. They/we have saved over 4900 dogs and cats over the last 6 yrs. They are mostly code red animals (about to be euthanized) and many times they are sick and/or injured.
It's a non profit, Passport For Paws. I think this is where future donations will be going unless I hear any negatives. I can assure everyone, this is a super great group.
Their website gives info and I can always help too. My next foster should be here shortly. I almost always have 1-2 (plus my own 7).
Our money donated at the 2023 Net54baseball Dinner, at the National, will be going there...

Great cause Leon, sent some dog food $$ to passport for paws in honor of my boy Orlando who came from the shelter.

And yes he's named after the great Orlando "Baby Bull" Cepeda (every thread needs a card).
