    Paws for Cause

    Posted by rearoad On November - 16 - 2011Comments Off

    We are happy to introduce “Paws for Cause”

    This program was created to help raise money for our “Goon Samaritan Fund”.  Money from this fund is used to pay for emergency medical procedures on unclaimed animals, or for lifesaving procedures on patients whose owners do not have means to provide said procedures.  We ask you, our clients, for help in raising money for animals in need.  Every little bit helps, so there is no such thing as a donation too small.  For every donation of at least $1.00, we will display a personalized paw print reflecting the name of the donor or their pet.  While supplies last, those who donate $10.00 or more will receive a PetMate Fresh Flow Water Fountain to show our appreciation.

     If you would like to give a donation to an animal in need, please visit our front desk.  Thank you for your support!

    ** Funds will be allocated after approval on a case-by-case basis, and only if funds are available.
