PetConnect Rescue News - May 2018
Edition

Dear PetConnect Rescue Family,
May Day, May Day!!
Look how you helped Titan and Tator! These two pups were rescued along with a number of other dogs, from a hoarding situation in West Virginia.
Without you
, PetConnect Rescue would not have been able to bring these two pups into safety. They were covered in sores, matted and starving.
Today, Titan and Tator are living up at Muddy Paws Farm, where they are learning what it's like to be loved.
All they need now are their forever homes. They have come such a long way in just a short period of time; the change is remarkable. Thank you for helping us make this possible.
Life saving stories are the heart and soul of PCR. Stay tuned to our heartwarming tales of rescue and renewed life. They are always right around the corner.
Our annual Do More 24 event is in a couple of weeks, and our social media platforms will be full of the stories that show how terrific you (along with our cats and dogs) all are!

If you've been thinking about trying fostering, now is a great time to step up. Here's to sunny days ahead!

With Warmest Wishes,

Executive Director

All they want is a soft bed, a safe space,
food and love. That's what our rescues get when they come into our care. We want to continue pulling as many animals from
high-kill situations as possible.
Will you help us?
Do More 24 is the DC Metro area's largest
24-hour online fundraiser powered by United Way of the National Capital Area as a way to celebrate all the local nonprofits working
hard in our communities. Last year,
PetConnect Rescue brought in over
$9,000 for our animals!
This Do More 24, let's remember who we are. We're the voice for the voiceless. We're the home for the homeless. We're a village.
Let's come together and #reclaimkindness
