Sponsor Me for Your Holiday Gifts!
Do
you want your holiday gift giving to be about something more important
this year? Sponsor a formerly Chained Dog or Penned Dog this Holiday
Season, and we will send your loved one a personalized gift letter
with a picture of their sponsored foster dog and his/her story.
Imagine
going from a chained or penned life, with little food, water, or
comforts, to not only having all the warmth and love you need but
also a great bed and toys too! Whether
given as a gift to a loved one or as a treat for yourself, its
a true treasure that will shine throughout the New Year.

positive, and the man agreed to give him up when he heard that.
He is scared of everything! He kissed Lynne's hand the whole time
she drove from his house to Sandy.
To
inquire about adopting Buddy, e-mail LYNNEROSIE@aol.com.

Pete,
TX
Pete
is a Pit Bull who was picked up in September by an ACOs in Galveston
County, TX. He was dragging a heavy chain which was affixed with
a pad lock around his neck.

used bolt cutters to clip away the chain. Pete's chain was gently
removed and his flesh wound was cleaned and wrapped.

Better by his caretakers, along with his two beagle 'sisters' in
a pen. He is playful and active. He still does a bit of chewing
when he gets a chance, mostly if you're not home to monitor him,
