We encourage you to bring your entire family! While a dog washing station will be the main attraction, there will be a 50/50 RAFFLE* and door prizes, beer and food specials, a photo booth, a bounce house, and entertainment for the whole family. RCR will be there with adorable dogs for adoption, too!

FTIgallery Spring Blue Dog Sale
Benefitting REDCOLLAR RESCUE

Now is your chance to add one to your collection (or gift one to a friend or loved one) and have a portion of your purchase go towards supporting Red Collar Rescue. FTIgallery will donate $100 to Red Collar Rescue for each piece sold. If they sell over 30 pieces, they will increase the donation to $150 for each piece sold.
Longshot, who was severely injured when dragged by a car, continues his miraculous journey! His vet team at Texas A&M is pleased with how rapidly the new tissues/skin is growing in on his scalped head and degloved legs. His sedation, wound care, and bandage changes are now only twice a week, which gives him a few days rest. Longshot has learned to walk on his own with the use of leg braces, but this is only a temporary fix until he can have orthopedic surgeries necessary to repair the severed tendons in both of his front wrists.
This is a long, slow process, and Longshot has many obstacles to overcome, but he has shown us he has the will to live! We are so grateful to all of you for your prayers and donations which have helped Longshot get to this point.
Read more about Longshot here, and click below to watch him walk while being cheered on by his vet team!
We hope to see you on April 24th at The Phoenix and/or see a picture of your new Blue Dog art!
