Please make a pledge today and help support this wonderful event and organization. While I will not be able to attend Paws in the Park this year I want to share with you the importance of Save A Dog.

Save A Dog is my family, literally, Shirley is my mother and a founder of Save A Dog. I have seen my family's pledge to animal rescue and education from the beginning. My life has been shaped by every dog that has been rescued, every tail wag and bark and I have had the joy to call many of these animals part of my family, like Ashley, Save A Dog's first foster dog, and Lulu, the 'bagel' that was destined to be in my life.

With millions of pets being euthanized annually, Save A Dog's goal is to save as many lives as they can even though they are a relatively small humane society. They do so by educating people about pet overpopulation and the need to "adopt" rather than "buy". Save A Dog uses a holistic protocol in caring for the rescued dogs and have found that they are able to bring the dogs to optimal health without all the conventional pharmaceuticals that most shelters use.

I ask you to consider making a pledge today, any amount helps. Thank you.
