Presents 4 Pets Campaign
Please join Paws in Training at Unleashed, the Dog Store on Saturday, October 24th from 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM and at Gourmutts Bakery on Saturday, November 7th from 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM. Experts from across the pet care industry will be on hand to talk to you about pet overpopulation, nutrition, health and training.
We are joining forces with area pet sitters, the Pet Foster Network and local businesses to assist animal rescue organizations in the Triangle area. The 3rd annual Presents 4 Pets Campaign is underway now through November 9th with the goal to collect critical items for roughly 30,000 animals living in local foster homes and shelters.
These items, (the presents) are products that rescued pets need for their daily care. They include high-quality food, bedding, litter, litter boxes, treats, collars and leashes. These presents give the agencies the tools they need to keep their operations running so that they can focus on the never-ending work of caring for the animals and getting them adopted.
Please visit http://www.presents4pets.org for more information including the wish list and donation drop off locations. Even the smallest donation can make a difference.
