These six chained hunks of bully love, in rural Washington, are now living chain-free.
That would be enough, but Fences For Fido volunteers have done much more to improve the quality of life for these six dogs (with the best names ever!) and relieve the worries and guilt for their family. Brownie, MooMoo, Buzz, Angle, Buddy and Precious are now forever Fidos 🧡🐾
• Volunteer Jenn Voge, transported all six dogs, round-trip, to Humane Society for Southwest Washington, for spay and neuter.
• Volunteers, Jennifer Adams & Ken quickly put love in action and visited the property the week before to build dog houses for all six dogs. For the first time, they have shade and protection from the harsh elements in the Gorge. They attached a hook on each doghouse and attached a heavy-duty livestock water bucket on each one. Then off to the store they went, bought 12 gallons of water and filled all the buckets.
• Given the family’s minimal resources and a lack of water and utilities on their property, they face difficult times, but they are a whole family, and their dogs are a big part of it. To that end, for this summer, Fences For Fido is providing multiple gallons of water to be delivered each month so that the dogs and family have plenty of drinking water throughout the summer months.
• Today, Karen Van Winkle delivered more water and they also personally donated a bicycle since the family did not have transportation.
• Fences For Fido is doing all that we can to keep this family together, when there really aren’t other options for these dogs. That’s why Fences For Fido meets families where they are, without judgment, only compassion.
-ALL- of this is possible thanks to not only volunteers, but donations. No matter how small - it all makes a difference.
