Responsible Pet Care of Oxford Hills, Inc.: P.L.A.Y. Pet Beds Grant Report

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

We received awesome, super-puffy beds for our dogs.

The beds gave our dogs higher-quality bedding to enhance their comfort while they spend time at our shelter. We can't thank you enough for the chance at the grants that you offer to enhance life at our shelter!

How many pets did this grant help?

Many of our dogs have had turns with these beds. I would say that more than 50 dogs have used them.

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

Duchess came to us from a very bad place in the South. She was almost shot by people who owned a farm that she was hanging around. She was homeless and hungry. The rescue group that we work with in Tennessee, Paws of Dale Hollow, rescued her even though they didn’t have a space for her. We agreed to take her and she was spayed and immediately transported to us. As you can see from the photo, she is “over the top” with her comfy bed and glad to be with us in Maine so that we can find her a perfect forever home where she will have no more worries again!
