Thank you!

Thank you Shippensburg area Girl Scouts for arranging a fun run/walk to benefit Better Days Animal League for their community project.  The entry fee was a donation to Better Days Animal League.  Look at everything the girls collected!
 
 
 
Also, recently we also put out a call for dry dog food and our wonderful supporters came through with donations in person, at our thrift stores and through our Amazon Wish List.  Our supply closet is once again stocked. View some of our fabulous supporters in our Thank You Gallery!

Volunteer Corner

Volunteers are extremely important to Better Days!  If you are interested in helping Better Days by providing support for resident care, facilities maintenance, our thrift stores or fundraising, please visit the volunteer section of the website.  This month, meet Pat!

Over the last several years, Pat devoted her available free time to looking after the dogs in Better Days Animal League's care and has always shown compassion for our residents at the shelter as well as her own furry friends. 

Pat now focuses on assisting with our much needed fundraising ... she has actively participated in the Valentine's Memorials, Spaghetti dinners, Safe Haven Stables, bake sales, and many more!  on more than one occasion, she has even been known to recruit family and friends! 

Pat certainly understands the important role fundraising events play in maintaining the health and well-being of our animals.  Since we have many seniors still awaiting adoption (like Auburn who has been waiting for over 8 years), in addition to those who may spend the rest of their days as our resident sanctuary dogs, our veterinary expenses can be very different than that of other organizations.

We depend on volunteers such as Pat to make BDAL events successful ... and with summer quickly approaching, we are entering prime fundraising season.  Maybe you'd consider helping with an event, check out our website for upcoming events ... we'd love to have you volunteering along side of Pat!

Better Days sincerely appreciates Pat's commitment and dedication to all our homeless animals!

If you are interested in dedicating time to animals in need, please visit our volunteer page to submit our short application and we will be in touch with you soon!

Happy Tail Update! Here's Hope, loving life in her new home.  Love happy tails?  Find more on our Facebook page!  Have a happy tail to share?  Sent it to us!

Featured Adoptable Pets!

Meet Auburn!  She's still waiting!  Our most featured monthly adoptable pet, Auburn is still looking for a home to live out her senior years.  Auburn, aka Miss Piggy, adores people and is a very big fan of her dog bed!  She enjoys short walks and will do anything to crawl into a car for a ride! For more information, please fill out an adoption application or view her PetFinder ad.  
Meet Diamond!  This distinguished gentleman was rescued from a hoarding situation and we believe was born in 2012.  Diamond would be a great addition to any family since he has been in a foster home prior to coming to the Fort Loudon thrift store.  If you haven't noticed, his short stubby tail is due to an injury that would not heal and had to be surgically removed … but you’ll see it doesn’t bother Diamond one little bit!  He is full of purrsonality, loves to play with toys and his furry roommates, but mostly loves to be loved!  Will it be your loving home that gives Diamond a lifetime of hugs and kisses?!  For more information, please fill out an adoption application or visit his Petfinder ad.
