Plain & Fancy Animal Rescue
We don't get involved in politics... LATEST NEWS: Last Updated -- January 11, 2010 THANKS! The turnout at our Emergency Adopt-A-Thons the past two weekends has been amazing! Over 200 people braved the cold on Saturday, January 2 in Adamstown, and another 150+ came out to Petsmart on Saturday, January 9. More importantly, over 65 dogs found new homes, and more will be going home before too long! Many of you donated items we need (see the list below), and more sent in donations on Paypal. In all, your outpouring of support helps keep us going, and saving more lives (but please don't stop now...see below about our situation)! For those who don't know already, Pennsylvania's new Dog Laws have now taken effect, and many breeders have downsized or completely closed their kennels. We've received hundreds of dogs in the last few weeks, and many more are in the pipeline to be surrendered. On Monday, December 28 alone, we received 106 dogs in one day! It's overwhelming, and we need your help! We need supplies: towels, blankets, comforters, paper towels, newspapers, Clorox Cleanup Spray, laundry detergent, exercise pens, dog beds, and shredded office paper (preferrably in long strips, not crosscut squares). We also need dog food...we are currently feeding "Kirkland" brand dog food, available from CostCo Wholesale. Donations of supplies can be dropped off at "The Total Dog and A Little Cat" in Adamstown. We also need financial support...between heating bills, housing costs, and the Veterinary care of these animals, we are losing money at a fast pace. Adopting dogs out for $200.00 got them into their new homes quickly, but didn't cover even the cost of their spay/neuter and veterinary treatments (dental, shots, microchipping). We really need your help right now to keep going, and to keep saving their lives. Can you help? Financial donations can be made through the link to Paypal below, or mailed to us at PO Box 71, Denver, PA 17517. Thank you very much for any help you can offer...no gift is too small or too large! And we need you! If you live anywhere near Adamstown, and can volunteer some time to help clean, feed and socialize our guests, please let us know! We'll be putting up an online volunteer form soon, but in the meantime, please send an email to pfrescue@gmail.com, and someone will get right back to you. We need morning (around 7am) and evening help (around 7pm), 7 days a week! Thanks!

Please note: We are swamped right now with all the animals being surrendered, so it could take some time before you get a response.
Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding, but getting the animals situated is our first priority!
