This grant supported a sweet 14-year-old dog named Bubbin!

Bubbin was having a very hard time getting adopted due to his advanced age. This grant provided support to help incentivize his adoption: It covered his adoption fee and provided a dog bed and other dog supplies, as well as six months of flea/tick and heartworm preventatives for his adopter.

This grant was incredibly helpful, as it made the financial burden of adopting a senior pet much less by covering all of the basic supplies and preventatives.

Bubbin just got adopted and his new mom absolutely adores him! Above are pictures of Bubbin with his new mom, including when she rang our adoption bell at time of adoption.
