For Paws Rescue: KONG Toys Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

We got the Kong grant. Entertainment for the dogs in rescue

Kong toys help keep our dogs from becoming kennel crazy. The toys give them something to focus on when we we're not playing with them.

How many pets did this grant help?

All the dogs in our rescue have used the Kong toys daily. So an estimated 30 dogs per month.

Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.

We had a dog named Kate who had been in rescue for 11 months when the toys came in. They gave her a new sense of purpose. She wasn’t good with other dogs so her play was very limited. The Kong toys filled with peanut butter made her smile and wag her tail.
We don’t have any pictures because she was very camera-fearful, but she loved her yummy toys!
