To Thank Our Benefactors…

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my many friends, old and new, who have provided such generous and loving support to me and Oregon Dachshund Rescue. I started my thank-you’s in our March/April newsletter, and found that I could have filled the entire paper. So, as I promised in the newsletter, here is the rest of my list:

To my wonderful son Christopher Green…thank you for being my rock and for all you do….most recently purchasing computer upgrade equipment for me.

Kelly Cantwell provided beautiful blankets, clothes, soap and treats. These will be much enjoyed by our Dachshunds.

Thank you, Don Large, for the treats, treats, treats and generous donations.

Ms. Pamela Perry arranged for payroll deductions from the Oregonian. Payments will be made through “United Way”. Thank you!

I appreciate my pet attorney, Geordie Duckler. He provides discounts on my rescue bill.

To my friends Dale and Leslie Caveness who keep those piddle pads coming in, I want to send my thanks. Leslie also sent me data and research on micro chipping that I really appreciate.

Gina Maloney offered real estate services for me, and then provided a load of pea gravel along with labor for the Doxie yard.

Hugs to Barbara Young for consistent donations and networking.

To Ken Chase and Carol Korgan, thank you so much for your supportive longtime friendship, donations and mostly for adopting the “WONDER DOG MILO’’.

Thank you, Ken Hick, for your donations and carpet cleaning service.

Doxie rescue angel Terra Merget gave a very generous donation to our vet bill for a dachshund that was attacked by a large dog and needed urgent care.

Dear friend, Jack Robbins, thank you for your donations and great emails of support in times when I am feeling sad.

Doxie kisses to Jessica Bushman! Jessica adopted one eyed Milo – a big beautiful red standard boy who is very much loved. Milo and her other doxie Ruby will were in the “Boutiques Unleashed” fashion show at Dove Lewis. Jessica also made a $1,000 donation to pay vet bills, buy new cages and blankets and bones.
