Appalachian Peace Paws Rescue: Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

This grant was used to order supplies for our rescue animals so that we could provide a consistent diet during their stay with us.

We were able to order 21 16-lb. bags of Purina One kitten food, five boxes of Purina Pro Plan Calming Care, and 10 boxes of Purina Fortiflora. Having the kittens on the same diet consistently and on Fortiflora helped ease gastrointestinal issues and help them get ready for adoption faster. The Calming Care helped anxious shelter dogs settle into their foster homes and get adopted.

Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.

Kali is a 5-year-old German shepherd who was surrendered to our rescue with separation anxiety. We started her on the Calming Care, and after a few weeks her foster really started to notice a difference in her behavior. She was adopted a few weeks after that and her adopter is continuing the Calming Care supplement.
