Welcome to our Weekly Rescue Round-up where we update you on all the rescue happenings within LOYAL over the last week! Thanks for stopping by the blog, and be sure to share or like this on Facebook and tweet about it, too! Spread the LOYAL love!
EVENTS
This past Sunday, PetSmart Markham hosted a Photos with Santa event with $5 from every photo going to LOYAL Rescue. Thank you for volunteer Ewan for coordinating this and to all those who attended to get your pets' photos taken with the big guy!
HOLIDAY SEASON - Only 6 days left until Christmas!
It's almost that time of year again! Wondering what to get the person who has everything? Why not donate to LOYAL Rescue on their behalf? It's quick and easy, and a tax receipt issues immediately when you donate securely online. Visit our Donate page for donation options, and give the gift that keeps on giving to our rescued dogs in need this holiday season.
The holidays are often a busy time for rescue in terms of owner surrenders, while the intake of applications can slow down as people go away on holidays. As we are volunteer run, our volunteers also go away to spend time with friends and family. Our administrative process can take a little longer than using during the month of December and into early January, and we thank everyone for their patience. Please know that our goal is to get dogs into loving homes and we are working as quickly as we can with our limited resources.
That being said, we welcome all interested adopters to submit applications through our website. We would love to find loving, committed homes for our rescued dogs for the holidays. Some have never had a family to call their own, and the best gift that a rescued dog could receive this holiday season is for a forever family to call their own!
SECRET SANTA
Thank you to all who contacted us to participate in this year's Secret Santa foster match-up! 35 dogs have now been matched with Santas and should be receiving their gifts soon! Fantastic!
SUPPORT US!
Funny Farm Boutique will be donating $5 from every collar and every leash purchase to LOYAL Rescue! A few people have already made purchases and the donations are already rolling in! Happy shopping!
