Save Thud and give him a great life!

Hi, my name is Greg Haskett, and I am raising money to get Thud out of the shelter, save him from euthanasia, and fund a 15-day board and train program. Life has been tough for Thud and he deserves this chance. I have walked him at the shelter several times and he was just one of those dogs that got into my heart.

Upon learning he was scheduled for euthanasia, I just had to do something. First, I created a Save Thud page on Facebook and connected with a couple fabulous organizations to spread the word. I am so thankful for their professional advice and dedication to saving animals as they gave me the advice I needed. One suggested I find a board and train facility, which I did and has great reviews! They said they would take him on only 3 days notice (as opposed to the normal 30-60) and would offer a discount since he is a shelter dog. They also said I needed to have a foster or adopter lined up before they could take him which is totally understandable. So, more pleas went out on Facebook, email campaigns, word of mouth, etc.

I walked him twice on Saturday this past weekend with no word whatsoever. So, I scheduled a day trip for Sunday to spoil him as much as possible. It was late during this Sunday day trip, about the time he was eating french fries (check out the videos on Facebook!), I learned that the most perfect foster parent stepped forward! Hallelujah!

So, he is confirmed to go tomorrow to the board/train facility and by the time many of you read this, he will be knee deep in training and on his way to a better life!

I have committed to paying the full cost of the training and will absorb anything that falls short of the goal. If we go above the goal, the balance will go to the two wonderful organizations that helped me get Thud this far.

Thank you for considering donating to help Thud - AND, any other animal rescue donation, volunteer time, fostering, or spreading the word about the need for greater humane education.

Thank you!

Greg
