FRIDAY SHOUT OUTS – Giving Thanks!

This Friday is a big Friday coz we’re thanking a whole bunch of awesome volunteers! Last weekend, DDR hosted our first ever Annual Pet Fair in the City of Compton!



It was fun and volunteers came out to make it one of our funnest events ever!
We know in DDR that we are nothing without our mover and shaker volunteers!!!!
Who’s more than happy to do the honors this week? It’s our dear CHLOE!!! She got adopted!!!!! Yay! So many of us at DDR and our partner rescue The Dawg Squad

were rooting for this pretty girl! And her dreams have come true! Here she is posing at the DDR Kennels wondering when it was going to be her turn to go home:

And lo and behold!!! Here she is with her new sibling Kylo in her new home!!!!!

Get up from your nap Chloe — we got thankings to do!!!

Ok—on behalf of DDR, I would like to thank my sibling Kylo and my new pack leaders, Brian and Bonnie for taking me into their home! Life’s good and I love my new purple polka-dot collar.
Next is Ms. Lori’s huge enormous thanks to all the volunteers that came out for the Pet Fair:



There’s Josie and the B.A.R.K. crew The kids loved spending time with all of you, the therapy dogs, Fran and Pogo!




We had a wonderful donation from BLUE APPLE BOOKS of



A childrens book by Broadway star Bernadette Peters. This children’s book is the story of a pit bull named Stella who learns that the best way to be, is to be one’s true self. Book sent to us from their offices all the way from New Jersey were distributed to the young ones that attended the Pet Fair! Thank you Ms. Peters and Tracey!!!!


We also would like to thank George Marilao for bringing his pythons!!! Debbie, Lezle, David, Edgar and of course Ivania and Cindy who help weeks before with the call intakes! And finally, Rosalie Bardwell who is our amazing Compton connect! A lot of our work in the Compton community has been made easier with her participation!



Our star volunteer, Rosalie with Lori’s boy, Clancy

All of this would be really difficult to do
without everyone’s input and help!


OK! Thanks for doing a great job Chloe — Kylo’s calling…
I think so you can both

BE HAPPY and we will miss you!!!!

RESCUING DOWNTOWN DOGS one DOG at a time
