Sponsor
a Valentine
for a Chained Dog or Penned Dog!
Join
us February 7-14th for Have a Heart for
Chained Dogs Week.
OUR GOAL in our 3rd Season is to SEND OUT 3000 VALENTINES TO CHAINED
DOGS.
We
are striving to raise awareness for chained and penned dogs in a
positive way...by delivering Valentines, a brochure and a treat
to dogs living outside all over the U.S. and into other countries
where they have representation, such as Canada and Australia.
In
2004 we delivered over 2400 Valentines to chained or penned dogs.
Tammy
S. Grimes, founder of Dogs Deserve Better, states, “Last
year, elementary students made 500 of our valentines, which were
a touchingly successful addition to our campaign. This year
we’d like all 3000 valentines to be hand-made, and we’re
seeking interested elementary teachers and students nationwide,
as well as groups such as girl and boy scouts, to create Valentines
for the chained dogs. The students and groups gain a sense of accomplishment
from creating for the dogs, and our hope is that more and more dog
caretakers are educated as a result of the children’s efforts.”
If
you sponsor a Valentine for a Chained or Penned Dog during this
time, we will do one of two things: Mail a valentine and treat out
to a chained or penned dog of your choice, please provide the address
in the message area; or, mail and/or hand deliver to another dog
whose needs a Valentine and a treat. We
would also be thrilled to have volunteers in other areas who would
deliver some to chained dogs. Contact
us at info@dogsdeservebetter.org
or 1.888.636.1408 if you're interested.
All
valentines will be sent anonymously, unless you specifically ask
for your first or full name to be included. And any information
that is sent out with the valentine will include only the name of
the Dogs Deserve Better organization. Therefore, any information
you give us is strictly confidential, unless you direct otherwise.
