A Wish For Animals is a 100% non-profit, no-kill rescue.
On Saturday, I attended a sample sale/fundraiser for "A Wish for Animals". It was a great event, several people brought their dogs, and their non-fur children. Everyone was local to the area and came together to support this foundation.
Our dog, Wolfie, was a rescue dog. We went through a very thorough process when we adopted her. The rescue made sure that we were educated about what it takes to raise a rescue dog and Wolfie's specific issues. I really embrace people who take out the time in their busy lives to donate time to volunteering.
From their found, Tori Eakes:
"A Wish for Animals" is a non-profit organization that has a big heart for animals. We rescue animals that are in need or in danger. We primarily rescue dogs and cats, but are always willing to try and help whenever there is an animal in need. We also provide medical assistance funds, food, vaccinations and spay and neutering to
low income families or families that can not afford large medical bills for their pets.
A Wish for Animals has been rescuing animals for the past 5 years and we are run 100% by volunteers so all of our funds go directly to the animals for food, medical and boarding until we are able to place them in a forever home.
Our mission is to help save as many animals as possible from suffering or death and to find them wonderful homes to spend the rest of their lives in. It's so amazing to see where these animals came from and where they end up in their new homes with so much love. They are so grateful to have what so many of us take for granted every day!
A Wish for Animals is run 100% on donations and depends on them to continue in our mission. Thank you for helping us in our mission to save these wonderful lives!
Of course, I took some wonderful photos while at the event!

I enjoyed a great lunch from Wahoo's that day and bought several raffle tickets!
Sounds like a great organization, and your "non fur children" line gave me a great laugh!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great event! Wish I would have known about it before hand.. I feel like you go anywhere where Wahoos is :) Me too!
ReplyDeleteI'm a total, complete, hopeless dog lover. It's great your involved with such a fantastic organization!
ReplyDeleteWe have Wahoo's here in Colorado. Instead of a surfing theme, they make them snowboarding. Super cute and great food! I will miss it when we move to Kansas next week.
ReplyDeleteI'm all for rescuing animals. We did so with our kitty and when we finally get a dog (after all family members are potty trained!), we will rescue him as well. Great post!
