Meet our dogs--and win a copy of Jim Gorant's "The Lost Dogs"

This Saturday, we'll be in the French Quarter at Gallery Rinard with a few of our most adoptable dogs. Stop by between 11am and 1pm and you could win a copy of Jim Gorant's new book "The Lost Dogs," which tells the story of what happened to Michael Vick's dogs after being taken from his custody. It's a great, inspiring story that shows the true, resilient nature of these great dogs.

Help pay for Perry's knee surgery

Recently we told you about Perry, who was transferred from the Louisiana SPCA's adoption room and then diagnosed with a serious orthopedic problem in both knees. He's recooperating from the procedures, but now we're hoping to replace the funds that were used to pay the bill. If we reach our goal, we hope to be able to expand to two low-cost vaccination clinic events this fall.
