Strength of Shadow Dog Rescue: COVID-19 Operation Grant Report

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

We used this grant to purchase dog food for the animals at our facility. We purchased 160 lbs. of adult dog food and 30 lbs. of puppy food.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, we have had to cancel ALL fundraising events in our community since March, yet we have rescued 21 more dogs since that same date. We were able to purchase food for the dogs in our care so that they could continue to thrive despite COVID.

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

River (first photo) and Raine (second photo) were two of the dogs here at the time. Both puppies had severe leg injuries. With specialized orthopedic surgery, we were able to save River’s leg. Raine’s leg, unfortunately, had to be amputated. Some of this food provided much-needed nutrition to help these girls through their recoveries. River was adopted at the end of June and Raine was adopted in July.
