🐾 Mission and Impact

Every step you take and every dollar you donate helps Furry Tails Rescue continue its vital work. Since its founding in 2014, this 100% volunteer-run organization has rescued and rehomed nearly 6,000 dogs. As a foster-based rescue, all dogs receive personalized care in loving homes, not kennels. The money raised from this event will help cover essential veterinary costs—from basic spay/neuter surgeries to more extensive treatments for heartworm and injuries. While the adoption fees only cover a fraction of these costs, your support helps bridge the financial gap and ensures that every dog gets a second chance at a happy, healthy life.

🎁 Donation Opportunities

We will be collecting donations at the event for the following items: for every item you donate, you will get an entry into our raffle for some of our wonderful prizes:

• Dry and canned dog food: (no Gravy Train, please)
