Introducing Planned Puppyhood 2015! As part of our 10 year anniversary, we are excited to announce a newproject, Planned Puppyhood. Every spring there is an influx in pregnant dogs found stray and surrendered to Chicago Animal Care & Control (CACC). Rescuing a mother and her litter takes significant financial resources and is a serious time commitment, and as a small rescue we want to plan responsibly. With the assistance of our extended network of volunteers, fosters and supporters, our goal is to raise $10,000 in advance so that we can cover the medical costs and vetting for a mother dog and her litter.
To meet these goals, we'll be hosting a puppy shower, having an online supply drive and other exciting events to get ready for our litter! Help spread the word by sharing this newsletter with a friend or business you know who might be interested in supporting Planned Puppyhood.
Sponsors are vital to helping us provide basic medical care for the puppies and their mother. A $500 sponsorship (6 available) will cover the cost of routine puppy boosters, parasite testing and treatment, heart worm preventative, and a spay or neuter for one puppy. $1,000 sponsorships (3 available) will help cover the medical costs for the mother as well as routine vetting, and provide additional resources for emergency medical expenses such as cesarean section, pneumonia, and/or parvovirus. All sponsorships will be matched up to $5,000 doubling your contribution! Planned Puppyhood Sponsorship Levels
