Thank You for a Wonderful 2010, Community Members!
The Cedar Valley Humane Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to building healthy relationships between people and animals, and eliminating cruelty, abuse and overpopulation of animals through education, adoption services and inspiring compassion for all living things. We couldn't fulfill this mission without the support of community members like you. We were able to find new forever homes for nearly 900 animals this year. We serve both the homeless pets of Linn County and its residents with our vital services. Here's to an even more successful 2011!

Happy Tail: Oreo
Dear Cedar Valley Humane Society,
I just wanted to let all of you know what a great dog Oreo is. He loves my cats, his housebreaking is coming along, and he is simply a delight to have. He LOVES running through the grass at top speed. He sleeps with  me every night (under the covers, behind my knees). My vet says she cannot believe he was a rescue from a puppy mill. She thinks he's nearly perfect! He received a clean bill of health with the exception a a minor ear infection which we are treating. I have renamed him Jackson, which he seems to like. Thank you so much for allowing him into my life. You people are the best!
Diane
Remember, YOU can send us your Happy Tail, too! |
