As 2016 comes to a close, are you looking to make donations for the 2016 tax year? BARKS!! Why not put your donations to pawcellent use by supporting the pawsome work of the local dog and cat animal rescues - like those who do work right where you live? I know they can always use cash, gift cards and many have "wish lists" of items they need and some are frequently used!
A team of volunteers help humans requiring assistance relating to their pets due to their failing health, financial reverses, or other personal circumstances. Barkingly, as possible, they work with senior and indigent persons enabling them to keep their companion animals, helps those unable to keep their pets by finding a responsible and loving new home for the animal and helps humans who rescue a dog or cat in distress, but are unable to provide long-term care.
To donate, please visit their website at, www.hart90.org, call 703-691-HART, or email hart90office@hart90.org.
I have enjoyed conversations, events and laughs with "Lab Lady" this year who is with Lab Rescue of the L.R.C.P., Inc., a pawsome volunteer organization which rescues, fosters and places homeless, abused, and/or abandoned Labrador Retrievers and provide a referral services for humans seeking to place their Labradors in new homes.
Labradors are evaluated for temperament and placed with foster families where they are loved, exercised, and further evaluated while awaiting adoption. All dogs are provided necessary shots, heartworm tests and spaying or neutering.
To donate, please visit their website at, www.lab-rescue.org, call (301) 299-6756, or email info@lab-rescue.org.
My friend "Great Dane Dame" and I have had a pawsome year with the Great Danes she's introduced me to quite often.
The Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League is staffed by volunteers who assist humans and Great Danes and Great Dane mixes. Humans are those wanting the companionship of a Great Dane or just dogs in general. Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League provides care, medical treatment and training/socialization for dogs abandoned, neglected, and/or abused by their previous owners.
To donate, please visit their website at, www.magdrl.org, call (703) 644-8009, or email coordinators@va-magdrl.org.
This year, I've made several friends with several humans at Operations Paws for Homes. "Miss Ashley," "Miss Joanne," Miss Never Dunn Rescuing," and I can't forget "Miss Anna" who asks my human to photograph all of her new dog friends.
Operation Paws for Homes is a volunteer organization devoted to the rescue, rehabilitation, and placement of dogs who have overcome great odds and deserve loving “Forever Homes.”
The dogs are rescued from overcrowded high kill shelters in primarily in South and North Carolina and Virginia. A few international dogs are rescued through partnering with shelters and rescues in India and Turks and Caicos.
To donate, please visit their website at: www.ophrescue.org, or email adopt@ophrescue.org.
One of my newest friends this year are volunteers with Paws for Seniors who work with senior dogs and cats who were given up by the only humans they ever knew. The primary focus is on caring for and finding homes for senior dogs and cats, age 7 and older where they can live out their golden years with dignity and love through rescue, foster, adoption and hospice. Pawsome!
Barkingly, Paws for Seniors, works with rescues/shelters to network and cross-post senior dogs and cats in their care to aid in finding a permanent home, and establish a program to aid Senior Citizens to keep the companionship of their current pets.
To donate, please visit their website at, www.pawsforseniors.org, call (540) 748-8177, or email info@pawsforseniors.org.
Paws, it all began with PetConnect Rescue in 2009 when they rescued me and took me to where I ended up meeting my great humans who I've helped become the bestest humans they could possibly be. Woofly, not long after I began a column which focuses on "dog and cat adoption."
Barkingly, my friends "Cat Lady" and "Miss C" have been by to introduce cats and dogs looking for "Forever Homes" since I began this column several years ago.
PetConnect Rescue’s saves abandoned dogs and cats and places them in loving and permanent homes. PetConnect Rescue responds to desperate email and phone pleas to rescue dogs and cats imminently slated for euthanasia from shelters between Maryland and Georgia. Medical care and spay/neuter are provided.
Volunteers provide foster homes for rescues, loving care, socialization, medical care, and assist with adoptions.

WOOF!! I am barkingly thrilled to be writing and photographing for a new animal organization who I just connected up with this last week! BARKS!!
