Saving Animals One Flight At A Time

Dogs in shelters need all the help that they can get. The number of animals euthanized on a daily basis is truly horrifying. Dog Is My CoPilot (DIMC) is nothing short of a miracle. This non-profit organization flies from shelter to shelter to save lives. They transport approximately 2,500 animals each year to shelters that have room for them. They're saving lives and leading by example. Thank you DIMC! #therescuers from Lens And Leash https://ift.tt/2uPyrSz via IFTTT

Say hello to this Hunk of a Dog we named Kevin! Our boy came to us as a stray so we do not know what his life was like before AWSOM, but we do know he is one of biggest goofballs we have ever met. Kevin is a 1 year old terrier mix. He is dog friendly and would do great with kids 8 years and older. Our boy can be a bit clumsy due to his large size and goofy personality. Kevin loves to go for hikes and enjoys play dates with his fellow shelter dogs. This sweet boy would love a family and a home of his own. Boyfriend is neutered, UTD on shots, micro chipped and ready to get the heck out of here. AWSOM is open daily 11 to 4. Come and meet him.

Does anyone remember our Abby Lu? Our gal came to us as a stray and boy were we surprised to find out she was deaf. Never fear, we jumped right in and searched high and low for the perfect home for her. We had finally found it and she was adopted. BUT….. then tragedy hit. Abby Lu’s momma got sick and passed away. Can you imagine her heartbreak and confusion? Abby Lu is 7 years old now and back in a stressful environment. It is not doing her any good and she is not handling it well. Abby Lu is super duper sweet. She does not like cats but is dog friendly, as long as the dog is respectful. Her ideal family would be one that would work from home, stay at home or only be gone for a little bit. As you can imagine being deaf, that it will take her time to adjust more so than a hearing dog. Abby Lu would love to be sleeping in her very own home tonight. AWSOM is open daily 11 to 4. Come and meet our special girl today. Visit @awsom_animal_shelter to check out more on Abby Lu and her furry friends!
