A Dog's Love
by
Terry Mar

A dog's love
seems to have no end
When humans want to hate
a dog, simply wants to mend

A dog's love
is expressed each time
Where as humans seem
to leave their feelings behind

A dog's love
is always the same
When humans love
some play a game

A dog's love
we may never understand
For they love completely
that seems lost in man

A dog's love
can only be known
By one who loved a dog
and dog moments they own

Dog moments are special
only way I can explain
They are when a dog affects
both your heart and your brain
  
  

     

We are quickly approaching the time for our annual fundraiser. This is our primary source of funds to help our dogs. We hope to see many of you there. Plus we love seeing the dogs who have found their new homes while seeking homes for our current dogs. Who knows, maybe we can gain some more foster homes.. Lately we've been getting a lot of pressure from the shelters to help, but can without the help of volunteers, foster, & you. Hope to see you soon!

"We call them dumb animals, and so they are, for they cannot tell us how they feel, but they do not suffer less because they have no words. " - Anna Sewell (1820 - 1878), Black Beauty, 1877
Countdown to Fall Festi-Dal Begins!!!!!
Join us for lots of spotted fun!!!

Saturday, November 14th, 10am to 2pm at Ferg's in St. Petersburg (1320 Central Avenue). Plenty of parking is available.

Two weeks until the big day...  our annual fundraising event. This year we've taken in a lot of hardship cases... senior spots, spots needing surgery, high heartworm spots... all the dogs that would otherwise not stand a chance in a shelter. Because of that, we need your help to keep paying our vet bills. This event is our one big yearly way of raising donations.

At the event, besides having lots of fun - meeting other dog adopters - great sale items and raffle prizes, etc. - you will meet some of our current foster furbabies. And we have a special surprise for you... something we haven't seen in a LONG time. We will have games for dogs and their humans and of course, our annual costume contest. Will your dog(s) be our cover model for next year's flyer? And St. Petersburg will have their brand new Rays Fire Truck at our event again from 12-2 for photo opportunities with your spotted or non-spotted furkids.

So please come on out to say hello, have a fun-fulled day and help our cause continue into our 12th year! Please email me or call me at daldoglady@netzero.net or 727-417-6017 if you have any questions.
These Good Dogs Still Need Homes
They just need somebody to love
                 
As quickly as they appear they disappear, adopters that is, no adoptions for our kids this past month. Our sole save for the month was ROCCO. We'd like to help more... ESPECIALLY THESE TWO, WELLA and SUNNY.  Both are sweethearts & both are Dal-mixes. Both sad cases, both heartworm positive, and both out of time at the shelters. THEY NEED FOSTER HOMES NOW!!!!! The only way we can save these two is to have a place to put them. DRTB will pay for all medical bills. PLEASE LET US KNOW IF YOU CAN HELP!
   
Wella                                 Sunny  

We also had two hard losses with CHELSIE & TONY, no matter how many dogs we take through heartworm treatment there is always the risk something will go wrong... sadly it did and our hearts are broken.

So for 2015, with 4 dogs carrying over from 2014, we have taken in an additional 29 dogs, 3 returnees, and -- have been adopted into loving homes. We have 10 care-for-lifers, leaving our current responsibility of caring for 27 Dals & dogs... ANY or ALL could use SPONSORS! 

Your help is very much needed, especially getting these dogs noticed at events or shared on social media. 

Our Dals & dogs, in various stages of readiness, seeking their forever homes are:
