February 2012 Rescues

The first month of 2012 was a record for us…we vetted and transported 105 animals in the month of January.  February has started off much the same way with so many commitments for animals.  We are facing the fact that we may have to slow down because of a lack of funding.  We are thrilled to be saving so many but it costs $175 to vet and transport each animal to safety in our approved northeast rescue groups and our bank account is seriously depleted. 

We are in dire need of donations to catch up and continue to save the animals from DeKalb Animal Services. Click the photo above to see all the animals that need sponsorship for February 2012!

Pawsome soaps to benefit FODA!

Our good friends at Soapbaker.com have been kind enough to run a Valentines Day special with their beautiful heart soaps to benefit FODA. They also make adorable puppy paw soaps year round to benefit rescue. You can order either of these great soaps in a variety of scents and $4 of the $5 price goes to Friends of Dekalb Animals. You MUST mention FODA when ordering for us to get the donation. Thank you for your support – and please order and enjoy these great soaps!

January 2012 Rescues

The first week of 2012 has been very busy.  FODA has commitments for 66 animals in the first 2 weeks of January.  Our goal is to rescue 50 animals per month from DeKalb Animal Services but we may actually break our monthly record for any month since our inception in July of 2010.  It costs $175 to vet and transport each animal to safety in our approved northeast rescue groups.  We are in dire need of donations to fund all of the animals that we have commitments to this month.  Click the photo below to see all the animals that need sponsorship for January 2012!

Thank You All For a Lifesaving Year in 2011

Friends of DeKalb Animals would like to thank all of our supportors and friends for helping us to save over 600 animals from DeKalb Animal Services betweek January and December of 2011.  Without your donations and your dilligence is telling others about our mission, surely many of these animals would not have made it out of the shelter alive.  We would also like to thank the wonderful receiving rescues that we work with in the Northeast for rescuing and finding homes for all of these great companion animals.  FODA was even able to raise the funds to save Lucas and Max from DeKalb this year with the help of Maxfund Rescue in Colorado, Pet Airways, Carmen in Atlanta, Stephanie in Colorado and many local donors.  You can check out their Facebook page at Lucas and Max: The adventures of 2 rescue dogs. 

We are hopeful that 2012 is going to be a our best year yet for saving the animals from DeKalb…Please continue to share our mission with your friends and family.  If you haven’t FRIENDED us on Facebook yet, please do.  That is the easiest way to keep up with our events and the happy tails of the animals from DeKalb when they are adopted into forever homes.  

FODA would like to wish all of our supporters the happiest of Holidays and health, prosperity and happiness in the upcoming year!  You make the difference between life and death for these animals and for that, we cannot thank you enough.
