It isn’t Wednesday yet, but I am sharing this today because it is over by January 31st. If you’ve never heard about A Place to Bark, it is a wonderful nonprofit dog rescue and Bernie is very devoted to saving these animals. She lives near a high kill shelter and tries to save as many of the dogs as possible, but she is at capacity and needs a new building for them. This grant will help her do that. To support the cause, you only need to donate $10. The way the contest for the grant is set up, it is the number of donors, not the amount of money raised, that is important. If you can spare $10, please help Bernie win the grant.
Tory is an adorable black puppy at the Humane Society of Kent County, Maryland. I bet he doesn’t stay there long, even if he is the least popular color for shelter dogs – black.
Did you know that they’ve discovered that big black dogs are especially hard to find homes for? I guess there are so many that they get passed over in favor of dogs that stand out because of different coloring. If you are visiting a shelter looking to give a dog a home, please make sure you stop to visit with all the big black dogs that are there.
I’ve decided to start a new feature – Save a Dog Wednesday. I will be spotlighting a shelter dog in this feature, in hopes that someone will give him or her a home. The first dog I’m featuring looks like a real sweetheart. She is available from Cecil County SPCA.
