Please, Can you Help?

Hello Fluffy Friends,

Times are tough.  A lot of you are without jobs and those of you with jobs are having a hard time trying to makes ends meet.  I received this urgent note in my email box this morning.  It is from the woman who runs the rescue in Missouri, where we rescue a lot of dogs from.  Enzo, Missy and Carter all travelled through this woman's doors.  If it weren't for her love and attention, we wouldn't have saved them. 

I'm asking, please, take a moment, search your heart and if you have the means, please, make a financial contribution.  If you cannot, I'm understand, I'm with you there, please pray that she is able to raise the money to keep this rescue open and going.

Thank you from the Pack at Grade Lodge and me, Shelly Grade

"I am having to do a fund raiser by begging. The vet has cut us off. My bill is at $6000 and since we do virtually no adoptions we have no funding. Without donations we can't survive. Our dog food has been taking all our money since we haven't had a donation of food since last year. Feeding this many dogs takes tons of dog food, Advantage Multi ( flea and mosquito season is here now) I killed a mosquito last night. It takes thousands of dollars just to keep us supplied in that. Not counting every thing else...wormer, grooming and so on. Our two biggest expenses are the heart worm treatments and Advantage Multi. Well lately we have repaired a few broke bones, several Parvo cases( and a new one today) at $300-$400 each..Intestinal bacteria cases that almost killed the pups and so on. WE can't stay in business with out donations or funding of some type. We save animals in one of the poorest areas of MO.That is why we have so many animals, not many care for them and they roam free to breed. WE are making a huge difference here but to continue we must beg for money. We can't do many fund raisers, there are only 5 of us and we are spread out over many counties. Our garage sales net us maybe $400 total for days of work( which we are doing this spring).WE need your help. You can read the Chip In for ways to donate . As always we appreciate your support. Cross posting will help also.
