Best Friends Animal Society Fundraiser!

One of my favorite charities, Best Friends Animal Society, is having a fundraiser and asking its past supporters, like me, to host a web page for fundraising. So I am!

Here's the link:

I have been supporting Best Friends for about 20 years, and remember when they were named Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. One of the things I love about them is they help animals nobody else will, as well as do wildlife rehab. They support all types of animals including bird, dogs, cats, horses, and pigs.

They are located in Kanab, Utah. Though I have never visited there, I plan some day to do the volunteer vacation opportunity they have.

Check them out.

Another Update on Rex and how to adopt an animal like him

Rex is mending well today after his tooth extraction.

The Two Rivers Tribune came out today with an in depth article about Rex.  I encourage people to read it to get a bigger picture.

I did find it disheartening that the Tribal Police confessed to shooting at least one dog a month. That just shows how severe the issue is. The police state they don't have enough resources. Perhaps the Hoopa Tribe needs to consider setting aside some of their $49 million settlement to provide for the animals the Creator has entrusted them with.  Just a thought.

Also, if you are in the place to adopt a dog or a cat, you might want to consider rescuing a Hoopa animal like Rex.  You can contact the Greater Rural Rescue in Hoopa at 530-625-1078. They have lots of animals in need of a loving home. They also aren't financially supported by the Hoopa Tribe. They are just a bunch of animal caring people trying to fix a desperate situation and using their own personal resources. They are the Hoopa Valley's equivalent to Miranda's Rescue in Fortuna (only smaller).

Thank you Allie for a wonderful article. I thank all of your for your support for Rex and other animals like him.
