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.
Our annual Angel Tree Drive has officially kicked off again! For the past two years, Intown Healthy Hound in Grant Park has graciously sponsored our tree and will do so again this year. Dog City II in Sandy Springs will also be hosting a tree, which we set up today (pictured). Thanks so much to Olive and Lily, owner Marcia’s insanely-adorable Boston Terrier rescues, for helping us get the job done!
How do we say thank you? With a lump in our throats and happy tears in our eyes, that’s how.
Intown Healthy Hound in Atlanta offered to host our Angel Tree in their store for the second year in a row this month. Every day in December, we posted one of our dogs and his or her special needs or wants on our Facebook page. We accompanied the local request with online requests via our Amazon Wish List … and you guys came through ten-fold!
We have been posting all of the amazing online donations and in-person/mailed donations on our Facebook page and now we would like to recognize IHH for their participation.
Not only did our local supporters help our rescue this season with tons of food, treats and toys, you also supported a wonderful local business that offers natural food and treats that are unbeatable.
Thank you to IHH and to all of our local supporters for doubling the cause this season. You are amazing, and we thank you!

Your awesome lot of toys, treats and food!
December has arrived, and we are excited to announce that Intown Healthy Hound is hosting another angel tree for us this year in their store. Beginning tomorrow, we will feature a dog or two a day on our Facebook page who is looking for an angel like you this season. Some like toys or treats, while some could use specialty foods or collars.
