YAY! It’s Friday and we can give thanks!
Who’s ready to do the fun stuff?
Of course it’s our new adoptee of the week!!!
We’re going to give ASKIM and PEPPER!!!!!!!!
We are thanking an awesome organization AND our very dear adopters!!!!!
Without these two important elements, well, we’re nowhere…
so hip hip hooray!!!!!
Askim? Pepper? Ready??? Set GO!
On behalf of Lori and DDR, we would both like to thank the Animal Farm Foundation for sponsoring DDR’s CGC trials (Canine Good Citizenship Test) for pit bulls). Their Incentive award program has really helped us reach out to new people in the community and have their beloved pits AKC certified!
So far, we have certified 9 dogs and have been awarded a total of $1,350 which in turn will pay for the medical care for the dogs that we rescue.
Another program that we are involved in that they sponsor is their Spay/Neuter program. We were awarded a $5,000 grant to spay/neuter 100 pitbulls in the next year! Without the support of this Foundation, DDR could not continue to help as many people and dogs that we do every month. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Below is a photo of Robin and Zena who passed the CGC test. Zena was rescued from the shelter on the day that she was supposed to be euthanized!
Please read the very important statement on
“At the heart of our organization’s mission is the knowledge that all dogs are individuals, and must be treated as such. We work specifically on behalf of dogs labeled as “pit bulls” not because they are different from any other dogs, but because they are not.”
Indeed, indeed.
And now, the next part of our task, we would like to thank
ALL the adopters that have come through DDR
to adopt us and provide us with new homes.
There’s so many of you but we would like to thank
OUR new families especially — so here goes:
ASKIM (NOW GUS!)? – to My DIEMER/EPPLEY family!!! YAY!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. You saved me from a life of dog fighting and uncertainty! Here’s a pic of dada, Nate, when he took me to work! My Mum Kristen’s not on there but I’ll remind them to send updated pictures with all three of us!!!!
PEPPER?- I am now part of the MORALES family and my mum is Suzy!!!!
I stay home with gramma and play and hang out with
Suzy when she gets home from work!!! YAY!!!!!!!
Ok, you two…go….go live your new lives and be happy! Thanks to the Morales and Diemer/Eppley families for taking these wonderful dogs….all our adopters are true blessings and will have made many dogs live wonderful lives…..
We’re doing it every week!
Saving Downtown dogs
