Buddy The Pup

Meet Buddy! This sweet boy has been struggling with mange. His loving family needed help for him but just couldn't afford the effective but expensive treatment needed to fix Buddy's skin. Thankfully, my wonderful workplace donated some Bravecto and we have been able to treat Buddy for a couple of months now. He has improved tremendously! We hope to have him all better in a couple more months.

We have used up all of our Bravecto and we need to buy more for Buddy - if you care to donate, please click here. On behalf of Buddy and his family, we thank you very much!!!!

We Love Lynn!

As we continue our long list of people and organizations to thank, we would like to give a big shoutout to Lynn Scholten! Lynn is kept very busy as a vet tech and an alpaca farmer (see some of her babies below) but always gives back to your own pets in need through volunteering her time and expertise in animal dental care. Thank you, Lynn, for giving these pets a life of comfort!

If you'd like more information about her work with Alpacas, simply google 'Blendon Pines Alpaca Ranch'.

As our week of 'list of thank yous' continues...

As you may know, it is around the one year anniversary of Pets In Need and naturally we are very emotional. That is why we can't help but show our gratitude to Chad Mann and everyone at Med-Tech Support Services for helping us attain affordable medical equipment! Because of Chad's persistence and effort, we were able to procure a drill (which is very expensive) to perform necessary dental treatments for animals (one of the most frequent causes for visits to the vet). Without saving that money, we don't know where we or the needy pets of the world would be. Thank you Chad and Med-Tech Support Services for all you do to help pets in Need in our community!

A Special Shoutout: Thank You, Bissell Pet Foundation!

One of the first to lend a helping hand is the Bissell Pet Foundation! We would not be PIN without them. They took a leap of faith with their early and generous support of our fledgling nonprofit. Their grant allows PIN to buy needed medicine and supplies. PIN works every day to uphold their mission, which is to reduce the number of homeless pets. We help keep pets in their homes by performing procedures that might cause people to have to give up their pet to a shelter. Through the support from Bissell, we are able to buy the medical supplies needed to keep your pets happy and healthy in a cost friendly way!
