Bringing JOY to so many in Arkansas and Missouri!
Billy Dennis started off our Holiday Season with a HUGE Ho Ho Ho ... when he announced he wanted to donate 220 pet beds to wherever they were needed the most ... and boy did we know exactly where 'that' was! ARKANSAS ... puppy-mill central!
Angie Heringer (Arkansas Angels 4 Animals) took the lead in selecting these 11 very worthy groups who would ultimately receive the pet beds for their rescues:
- Jacksonville Animal Shelter
- Northeast Arkansas Humane Society
- Blytheville Animal Shelter
- City of Corning Animal Control
- City of Manila Animal Control
- New Madrid Animal Control
- Wright-Way Rescue
- Cherokee Village Animal Control
- Hounds Hideaway
- City of Eldorado Animal Control
- Osceola City Animal Shelter
And then she went to work rallying her amazing band of volunteers for an all out pet bed assembly party

on November 14, 2015!
They not only put together the pet beds donated by Billy Dennis - they also assembled many more pet beds donated by so many other very generous donors who step up from all over to ensure these puppy-mill survivors would finally know some small comforts of home while they wait for their own forever homes!
Angie has already begun distributing these pet beds to the shelters and rescue groups on this list and here are some of the early photos. We will be sharing the photos on our Facebook page as soon as we get them so be sure to 'like' our page so you can continue to see these sweet, happy faces!
| "Thank you so much for my bed!" |
We are so grateful to Billy and Angie who go above and beyond for the pups, but also for our many wonderful supporters who step up for the pups in shelters all year around ... We are so grateful for your support.
Without you we simply could not do what we do. We could not support the small rural shelters that have no network of supporters fundraising for them. Without you we would not be able to fund our Forgotten Shelters Program ™
Thank you for all you do to help us help the many animals in shelters around our country.
We wish you a very Merry Christmas & Happy Holiday Season with your family and friends and may your New Year be magical!
Best Regards, Tracey French
