Three dogs are alive today because of you

Thursday, Nov 6th, 2014 | By Dr. Marty Becker

Three dogs played on the grass today. They went for a walk, took treats from a volunteer’s fingers, and had a nap. But those things very nearly didn’t happen, because all three dogs were scheduled to be killed on Nov. 1.

Fortunately, that didn’t happen, because of the power of each and every one of you who read about Davinci, Stella, and  Hunter on my Facebook page and shared their story far and wide — 7,141 times, in fact.

So far that a shelter called Sweetpea Friends of Rutland Animals in Massachusetts saw it, and said they’d step up and take them!

Now I’d like to ask you to show your gratitude for their generosity by donating to Sweetpea Rescue. I’m pretty sure if we all dig deep, we can raise thousands of dollars for them to help them save even more pets facing that darkest day!

Please go to the donation page on their website, right here: http://www.sweetpeafora.org/donate.html

You can also mail a check payable to Sweetpea FOR Animals to:

Sweetpea Animal Shelter & Kennels
1090 Pleasant Street (Route 122)
Paxton, MA 01612

Give what you can, and whether you can or not, please ask your friends, family members, and co-workers to give. Imagine the joy in the animals’ eyes this holiday season when they are marched out to meet their new adoptive family at last! You can make that happen!

Thank you and God bless you, Sweetpea, and thank every one of you who fought to save Davinci, Stella, and Hunter!
