December was all about fundraising. Between our Angel Tree Drive, the awesome people we met at Whole Foods, and lots of individuals and businesses wanting to get in those last-minute tax-deductible donations, we were able to hook all of the dogs up with everything they needed … and pay off some overdue vet bills. Woo-hoo! What an amazing end to an amazing year.
What a month to be thankful for – a big grant, a wheelchair for Kennedy, a productive Fall Vol Day and, most of all, more adoptions!
What a month October was! Reunions, adoptions, festivals, new outlooks on life, and Jack Russell smiles for the weary walkers!
It was literally the “dog days of summer” with several of our rescues finding new homes … and Pippa finding her truly-forever one at the Rainbow Bridge.
What do rescues do when we’re not saving lives, making vet runs and scooping poop? Raising funds, creating awareness and streamlining operations … so we can keep saving lives, making vet runs and scooping poop! That’s what July was all about.
June was a Terrier of a month the featured our annual fundraiser, an awesome adoption and the ongoing circle of life.
May was a month of festivals, festivals and more festivals … oh, and yeah … Rocket went home!!
Vol Days are always special, but our spring one this year was a match made in heaven for the Carelsons and Octavial. And while the pollen spread across Atlanta, so did education about the True Costs of Rescue across the country.
March both came in and went out like a lamb this year … and we were thankful after a “ruff” winter … well, for the South, at least. We welcomed spring with a photo contest and an awesome chance to appear on TV … and we said goodbye to our special rock star, Jerry Lee.
February was the month of love! Our dogs kissed so many folks at Smooch-a-Pooch and we, unfortunately, kissed our sweet Skip goodbye.
2014 kicked off on a busy note with regular activities (fundraising and volunteering), as well as some fun stuff (barn hunting classes). Hannah took some big steps, while Ossa learned to step again. And Isabella finally got the gift she had been waiting for, for months.
