Gift Certificate Donated to No Dog Gets Left Behind
No Dog Gets Left Behind provides financial support to reunite military personnel with the stray animals they found and bonded with while at war. The cost of $4,500-per-pet includes vaccines, medical treatment, transportation and more. While the financial investment is high, the relief, comfort and joy this program provides soldiers is immeasurable.
I donated a Gift Certificate as an auction item to the foundation’s annual Valentine Fund Raiser. It was a fun evening of music, food, drinks, and several won incredible raffle prizes, all while helping our military personnel reunite with the stray dogs they found and bonded with while at war. Several of the soldiers attended along with their dogs.
I applaud the hard work and dedication of everyone involved in the foundation. I was honored to be a part of this wonderful event.
The WINNER of the Pet Portrait from Photos Gift Certificate sent these photos of Poochie & Duke
"Poochie" - lived an amazing 22 years. She was a mutt (mix of Shepard, huskie and no one know what else) Her left ear was bent down (as you can see in the pictures) also her left eye was half brown half blue.....she was one of a kind and
"Duke" - adorable and missed so very much. I loved Betty White's quote - "Once someone has had the good fortune to share a true love
affair with a Golden Retriever, one's life and one's outlook is never quite the
same.
"Poochie & Duke" - artwork is 11 x 14 graphite on watercolor paper. A Timeless Treasure !
