Pilgrim

Could you donate $5 to save this sweet boy?

Pilgrim is young (around 12 months old), sweet, pure-bred Great Pyrenees. His owner brought him into the kill shelter in Waco, TX so the shelter could find him a new home. Completely clueless or just totally uncaring? Who knows? What we do know is that it takes a miracle for an owner-surrendered dog to make it out of a busy kill shelter alive. Very often, the dog is killed as soon as the owners walk out the door, because there are no laws protecting surrenders like the laws that protect strays. Imagine having a beautiful, sweet boy like Pilgrim and not even taking the trouble to look for a rescue to take him. What jerks his former owners are!

If you would like some insight into what goes on (or doesn't) in the head of an owner who surrenders his dog to a kill shelter, watch this funny replay of what might have happened when they brought Pilgrim to the shelter. Funny, but all too true!

Luckily for Pilgrim and his eventual new owners, our friends at the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society of Houston heard Pilgrim was at the Waco shelter and, relying on your sponsorship, they scooped him up!

Now GPRS need our help to pay the costs to save Pilgrim.

Please help us raise the $160 we need to help GPRS save Pilgrim using the ChipIn.

All donations go directly from Paypal to the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society, a 501(c)(3) charity, and are tax-deductible. Please chip in - together we can save Pilgrim and many more!
