CAN YOU HELP?
Isabelle
This is Isabelle she is a Basset from a Puppymill in Sounthern Indiana. When she came into my care she had the worst fears I have ever seen on a dog in my 50 years being around dogs. And the worst I have ever had to work with. I knew she was never going to make a good dog for just any home and that the work I would have to put into her I just decided she would stay within my family. She is a sweet little girl but has a lot of antisocial skills problems but things havve gotten better since I got her in March. WhenI first got her she didn't know how to play with other dogs and is just petrifed of people and especially men. But now she will come to them if they get down to her level.
I have fostered some really sweet Hounds that you just can't imagine how someone could ever mistreat these dogs as bad as they have been treated. We have had a rush of Heartworm this year with many of our rescue's. This alone so very costly but they desever to have a chance at a better life.
I have devoted a lot of my time in training and caring for them day in and day out, transporting from shelters or to new homes or to a new Foster home, buying food, giving them the love they deseve. And not to say the wear and tear on my Van, Gas. All this adds up and I do it for the love of the Dog who can't talk and tell us their story.
Would you please help me to get the last of my goal.
I thank each and everyone of you who have given from your heart and to help me in raising money for there care. THANK YOU THANK YOU!
This is the last email.
Please help me in raising funds for an organization close to my heart. Guardian Angel Basset rescue is the largest single breed rescue in the Midwest. Guardian Angel rescues, provides full veterinary care, fosters and hand selects a home for over 300 dogs each year. GABR is more than a dog rescue as we have helped over 50 non-profits learn how to fundraise, run auctions and profit through partnership in our annual Corvette Raffle.
On September 17, 2011, Guardian Angel Basset Rescue is holding their 14th Annual Waddle. The Illinois Waddle is a weekend long celebration of the breed attended annually by over 1,000 bassets and their families. It is Guardian Angel’s primary source of funding. I raise money for the rescue of Bassets because a Basset Hound has touched my life. They are truly wonderful, loving dogs that complete our family. I support Guardian Angel through the Basset Waddle as GABR is comprised of hardworking, exceptional and committed volunteers who are dedicated to helping Bassets in need. It’s the kind of group I want to support – that’s why I count on the support of fellow dog lovers, our families, friends and business associates to provide healthy, happy lives for every dog that we rescue.
