We really need help getting this boarding balance down, and if you're able to contribute anything at all, even a few dollars would help us get closer to that goal.
We still have three dogs sitting and waiting in boarding, for months now. With very little interest and no serious commitment yet.
With boarding alone costing us $273 every week, the expenses have continued to accumulate while we've also been managing several medical cases over the past few months, making it increasingly difficult to keep up with everything all together.
We also want to thank everyone who reached out and helped us find a solution for Rocky and Ziggy while their foster was out of town. We were able to arrange for a housesitter to help care for the boys while she was away, and we're so grateful that we were able to make that work. We do still have $220 to cover for that care, in addition to our ongoing boarding expenses, so we're hoping to get some help with that as well.
We've been trying so hard to get the dogs out of boarding and into foster or adoptive homes. Getting them placed before winter is a huge priority for us right now. We've taken on several medical cases this year including multiple heartworm positive dogs who needed treatment. Ziggy's treatment is still ahead of us and we're working to make that happen while also getting our current expenses under control.
With donations becoming increasingly scarce and adoptions being fewer and further between, it's becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with everything right now.
Between the demands of everyday life, family and everything that goes into running the rescue, finding the time and extra hands to organize fundraising events can be challenging. We would really like to get some things in motion to help bring in additional funds, and having a few people willing to help would make that much more possible.
We'd love to put together a raffle with some baskets and are looking for anyone who might be interested in donating items, putting a basket together, or helping us organize it. We'd also like to work toward holding a bake sale, so if anyone enjoys baking and would be willing to contribute baked goods or help with the event, we'd love to hear from you.
We're open to other fundraising ideas, too! If you have an idea you'd like to share or would be interested in helping us bring something together, please reach out.
If you can help by donating any amount, sharing this post, or helping us connect with others who may be able to support our efforts, we would be incredibly grateful. Encouraging others to share and donate is also very much appreciated.
