WE DID IT!!!! WE’VE MATCHED the $50,000 DONATION, and then some, thanks to the generosity of another $50,000 donor as well as many smaller donations from dog lovers all over the country who have been touched by our video on YouTube. We are overwhelmed with gratitude to these wonderful, caring people. Now with over $100,000 in our real estate fund for our permanent sanctuary property, we are well on our way toward our goal of $250,000 and hope you can help us get there. Your donations will be so very much appreciated and will help to keep lots more tails wagging for many years to come. NO AMOUNT IS TOO SMALL!
