During these difficult times there are so many worthy charities in need of your support, we realize that ours is only one. BUT, in these most difficult times, more than a few families are having to make difficult choices about their pets. Rescues across the country tell stories of pets left behind in the foreclosure process and families having to make the difficult decisions to give up their pets. Large breeds are affected significantly because of the costs associated with feeding them and addressing the 'issues' associated with size. Add on big, floppy ears that love to grow bugs and an insatiable desire to get into EVERYTHING and then you begin to understand what it is to love a Bloodhound! We feel grateful everyday for our dogs and are doing our best to help care and find homes for many others. In addition to cash donations, we are always in need of Purina One Adult Formula (Dog Food), Nylon or Hard Rubber (like "Kong") Toys and Large or Extra Large Crates in good condition. Our Fund Raising Goal for 2009-2010 is $75,000 Your donations will be put to use on the following projects:
Haul the Hounds Trailer Fund If you'd like a way to get specifically involved and commemorate the memory of a lost pet at the same time, we are offering this unique opportunity. We are in need of a trailer to help shuttle hounds to and fro' between homes and the field. Such trailers are not cheap! SO, we are asking for donations to help and giving donors something in return. For a minimum donation of $250 to the trailer fund (we estimate final cost to be about $7,000) we will provide you 2 lines of text to memorialize a pet on the trailer. That way, you help us to help the hounds and a favorite friend is always along for the ride with us! To join in this special effort, click the button below! If you'd like to donate more than $250 please e-mail us or give us a call at 717-458-2786. Thank you! Again, we are a Pennsylvania Non-Profit and have applied for 501(c)3 status.
