The Second Annual SBRET Garage Sale was a great success. April 19, 2008 started a little rainy, but we still had lots of shoppers. They had plenty to chose from since this year's sale was HUGE with lots of families donating items. Proceeds from the sale will go for vet bills for the many fragile puppymill dogs we've rescued recently. They required lots of medical care, TLC and time to heal before being ready to go to their forever homes. We are thrilled that all left over items were donated to another rescue group that is planning a garage sale in a few weeks. Donations needed: The support of local veterinarians is vital to any rescue group, and we are very fortunate to work with two clinics that offer us a discount on services; however, veterinary care for our foster dogs is still extremely expensive. Rarely does the adoption fee for a dog cover the expenses that have been incurred. If you are considering making a financial contribution to SBRET, any amount is welcome, or you might wish to make a specific donation to cover any of the following expenses: Donation Menu
If you think animal abuse is something that happens in other states but not in Tennessee, please take a look at the Interactive Animal Cruelty Map of Tennessee . Knoxville American Red Cross Pet First Aid Classes
Keeping your pet indoors and under your control outdoors is
the best way to protect against most accidents.
Be prepared for the unfortunate accidents with skills learned at the Pet First Aid classes at the Knoxville American Red Cross. The $25 investment could save your pet's life! The American Red Cross pet first aid class gives cat and dog owners the skills necessary to tend to unexpected emergencies and to monitor their animals' health. The class allows pet owners to provide care until they can get their pet to a veterinarian.
