Glory

Update:  DDRC raised the money Glory needed!  Glory is out of the shelter and has already gone to her new permanent family!




This beautiful, pure-bred Great Pyrenees is Glory. She is two years old and sweet as can be. She now belongs to a kill shelter in Arkansas. This is a shelter that tries hard not to have to euthanize, so they have had her in foster. Unfortunately, her foster time has run out. She is being returned to the shelter where she has very little time left before they will have to kill her.

I have been looking for the last couple of weeks for a rescue to take her. Alissa, the wonderful NGPR person in Arkansas, said she would take Glory if we can sponsor her. We need to raise $150 to get Glory safely out of the kill shelter by Wednesday and into the loving arms of Alissa and NGPR. This money will pay for her vet bills and boarding for a week. (We only pay a portion of the total costs - the cost to a rescue for a healthy Great Pyr is typically around $500 when all the expenses are taken into account.)

Please help by making a tax-deductible contribution of $5-$25 to NGPR athttp://www.nationalpyr.org/join_or_donate.php. You can send a check or use Paypal (you don't need a Paypal account - you can use a credit card). If you do give, please comment below so we can keep track.

Thanks very much!

It seems like it never ends, doesn't it? There are thousands of dogs going into kill shelters every day. Most them die there. But with your help, the DDRC can help rescues save some of them. Please stay with us for the long term and give a little when you can!
