Rescue Partners

written by Eric Powell

We are pleased to announce that two animal rescue organizations have decided to use Pet Tag Creations’ pet ID tags in order to help raise funds for their rescue efforts. As I’m sure you know, fundraising is an essential activity for rescue organizations in their efforts to help as many animals as possible, and the fact that we can play a role in these efforts is extremely gratifying.

Bully Paws Pit Bull Patriots is located in Fredericksburg, VA, and works with local shelters to place homeless bully breed dogs into foster homes until a loving adoptive family is found. Unfortunately many people have been misinformed into thinking that pit bulls are vicious dogs that should not be kept as pets, so finding a home for these animals is not an easy task. A century ago pit bulls were nicknamed “The Nanny Dog” because of how reliable they were around children, so if trained properly they make great family pets.

Bully Paws seeks to correct people’s misconceptions about pit bulls, but they need your help in doing so. Bully Paws relies exclusively on volunteers to support its mission, so they are always looking for more people willing to devote their time to this wonderful cause. Bully Paws also has almost 100 dogs in their care, so foster and adoptive parents are always welcome. Or if you are unable to contribute in either of these ways, you can donate to Bully Paws here: http://www.bullypaws.org/info/donate.
