And we have an extra special sweetheart to do the honors —
Raising money for rescue work is a big challenge for small rescue’s like Downtown Dog Rescue. Coordinating an army of volunteers with volunteer coordinator, Sandy to help with events, errands and countless other rescue related tasks, Lori’s time is majorly impacted and thinking up ways to raise the money needed to do ALL of it is just one more thing to add to an already full plate. This is why when we get donations/support/event proceeds out of the blue, Lori and I are super elated and thankful!!!!!!!
This week we want to thank David Minkin, Nicole Bruckman, Robin Skov and Page Miller for being the wonderful rescue friendly souls they are and including DDR in their work/existing projects. Many of the events donate their proceeds to DDR. We want to do a shout out to the following folks and it will be headed by no other than our 61st street kennel success story…Mr. Larry!!!!!
Larry got adopted today and he is one of the 61st Street Kennel hoarding case that really has won a lot of DDR volunteer hearts! Here was poor Larry at an over-crowded kennel in South LA, tied to a tree 24/7….
And here is this sweet, intelligent and wonderful Larry in his new home!
Larry has finally found his home — but wait, we want to ask one final request!
Larry, are you ready to thank everyone and give them that winning happy smile you now will permanently have? LARRY SAYS YES — ok Larry – flash the smile and give the thanks!
On behalf of DDR, I would like to first thank my new family Marshall and Courtney!!!! YAY!!!!! I’ve found my forever home!
Also, I would like to thank the following people whose support of DDR, will continue to make rescue work happen for other dogs like me…. so…..
THANK YOU for involving DDR with your A MUTE OF HOUNDS EXHIBITION at MELTDOWN GALLERY! 20% of proceeds from artwork sold is really a big deal for us + setting up an adoption event at the Gallery and just really coming up with great satellite events that encourage donations to our rescue…we are indebted to your awesomeness!
