Helping someone else always helps me mentally during a job search, and in this case it’s saving another dog. With so much free time on my hands, I can do a lot more of what I really enjoy doing. My day is free to pursue my passion for helping animals, and today's a perfect example. I'm on my way to pick up a senior dog who sadly lost his owner recently. The family didn't feel equipped to care for him, and he was facing being surrendered to the shelter. Shelters, especially in our island community, often struggle to find homes for older dogs. The time limit for adoption can be short, and the thought of this sweet pup facing euthanasia was heartbreaking. That's where our amazing volunteer network steps in. They rescued him last night, and today he'll get a thorough check-up at our partner vet, Aloha Affordable. Then, he'll come home with us to meet our other foster furry friends! 🐶 We know losing a loved one is incredibly difficult. But surrendering a pet, especially an older dog, to a shelter can be a very stressful and potentially life-threatening situation for them. Shelters often have limited space and resources for senior animals. 🐕 How Can You Help Buddy and Others Like Him? This is where you come in! We're a non-profit organization that relies on donations and grants to help abandoned animals in our community. Many pet owners here have to move due to island life, and sometimes they can't bring their furry companions. Sadly, these animals often end up left behind. We'd love for you to meet Buddy this evening through some pictures I'll post. If you'd like to support our mission of rescuing dogs in Hawaii, we've set up a GoFundMe page. Any contribution, big or small, can make a world of difference. 🐩 Together, we can give these deserving dogs a second chance at a loving home. #Adoptdontshop
I especially suggest older trained dogs for first-time pet parents. Puppies are adorable, but they also require a lot of work. Thanks for fostering. We’re full over at my place.
Thank you, James, for fostering this senior dog. I donated, and I hope you reach your goal soon.
Hello James A. I will be interesting in supporting and collaborate with your campaign receiving donations faster as you desire Let connect

6moHere’s the first picture I took of Buddy on his way home. Once we arrived home he acclimated to the other dogs easily and he seems to like me more than my wife (for now at least). 😅
