🎆🐾 Friendly Reminder for the Fourth of July! 🐾🎆

As we gear up for an evening filled with dazzling fireworks and festive celebrations, let's not forget about the safety and well-being of our furry friends. The loud noises and bright lights can be incredibly stressful for pets, leading to anxiety and sometimes even causing them to run away in fear.

Please take a moment to ensure your pets are secure and comfortable indoors as the fireworks begin. Close windows and curtains to help muffle the sounds and create a safe, quiet space for them to retreat to. Consider playing some calming music or turning on the TV to help drown out the noise. Additionally, ensure your pets have proper identification, just in case they do manage to get out.

Let's make this Fourth of July a joyous occasion for everyone, including our beloved pets. Stay safe, have fun, and enjoy the celebrations responsibly! 🐶🐱❤️

❤️...!

As we get closer to July 4th holiday, an important reminder: 1 in 3 pets will go missing in their lifetime. 😲🚨⁠

🐾 Understanding How Animal Shelters and Animal Rescues Get Their Funding 🐾

When it comes to supporting our furry friends in need, both animal shelters and animal rescues play crucial roles. However, their funding sources can be quite different! 🤔 Let's dive into how each type of organization typically secures the financial resources they need to operate.

Animal Shelters: Often run by local government agencies or larger organizations, animal shelters receive a significant portion of their funding through public sources. This includes federal, state, and local government grants, as well as taxpayer money. Additionally, shelters may benefit from community support in the form of donations, fundraising events, and adoption fees. Many shelters also partner with larger animal welfare organizations that provide grants and additional resources. 🏛️💰

Animal Rescues: On the other paw, animal rescues are usually smaller, privately-run organizations that rely heavily on the generosity of the public. These groups often depend on individual donations, sponsorships, and grants from private foundations. Fundraising events, social media campaigns, and merchandise sales are common methods rescues use to generate funds. Unlike shelters, rescues frequently operate without steady government support, making community involvement and volunteer efforts even more vital. 🐕❤️

Both shelters and rescues are essential for the well-being of animals, but they each face unique challenges in securing the necessary funds to continue their life-saving work. Whether you choose to support a shelter or a rescue, your contributions make a world of difference for animals in need! 🐾💖

🐾 Exciting News! 🐾

Attention all dog lovers! Tomorrow, starting at 9 AM, swing by Petco on Sahara for a special dog adoption event! We're thrilled to announce that we'll be running fantastic specials on our senior dog adoption fees. These lovable seniors are looking for their forever homes, and this is the perfect opportunity to find your new best friend.

Please note, due to the hot weather forecast, we'll be keeping an eye on the temperature. If it hits 100° before noon, we'll have to close down early for the safety and well-being of our furry friends and volunteers. So, make sure to arrive early and beat the heat!
Don't miss out on this chance to give a senior dog a second chance at a happy life. See you tomorrow at Petco on Sahara! 🐶❤️🌞

“The More You Know Monday” Post #1

Have you ever wondered about the difference between an animal shelter and an animal rescue? While both play crucial roles in saving animals' lives, they operate in unique ways. An animal shelter is typically a physical facility where stray, abandoned, or surrendered animals are housed. They often have limited space and resources, which can unfortunately lead to overcrowding. On the other hand, an animal rescue is usually a volunteer-run organization that focuses on saving animals from shelters, especially those at risk of euthanasia, and places them in foster homes until they find their forever families.

Fostering for an animal rescue can be incredibly beneficial for the animals in shelters. When you open your home to a foster pet, you’re not just giving them a temporary place to stay—you're also freeing up space in the shelter for another animal in need. This means that fostering helps reduce overcrowding, lower the risk of disease transmission, and give more animals a chance to find loving homes. Additionally, foster homes provide a nurturing environment where animals can receive personalized care, socialization, and training, making them more adoptable.

So, if you’re passionate about helping animals, consider becoming a foster parent for an animal rescue. Not only will you be providing a safe and loving environment for a pet in need, but you’ll also be playing a vital role in alleviating the pressure on local animal shelters. Your efforts can make a significant difference in the lives of multiple animals, giving them the best chance at a happy, healthy future. 🐾❤️

Dear Friends and Animal Lovers,

We regret to inform you that tomorrow’s adoption event at PetCo has been canceled due to the forecasted high temperatures. The safety and well-being of our furry friends, as well as our volunteers and potential adopters, is our utmost priority. We believe it’s best to reschedule the event to ensure a comfortable and safe environment for everyone involved.

We understand that many of you were looking forward to welcoming a new pet into your home, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Please stay tuned for updates on the new date and time for the adoption event. In the meantime, you can visit our website or contact us directly for information on how to adopt or foster a pet.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. Let’s keep our beloved animals safe and cool during this heatwave. Stay hydrated and take care!

Warm regards,

Those Left Behind Foundation

🌟 Meet Ozzy: Your New Best Friend! 🌟

Ozzy is a two-year-old Australian Shepherd mix who is graduating from our Pups, Prisoners & Patriots (3P) training program this July! This energetic and affectionate pup is now looking for his forever home with a veteran who can provide the love and space he needs to thrive. 🐾

Ozzy would be perfect for a country setting where he has ample space to run and explore. He's a faithful companion who loves exciting adventures. While he sometimes struggles to contain his excitement when meeting new people, he's a fast learner and follows commands well. With a little patience and love, Ozzy will be the perfect addition to your family. 🌳

Ozzy enjoys being active and would do best in a household with active owners and older children. He could also thrive in a home with another dog that shares his energy levels.
