Helping the streets dogs


I just wanted to post a quick blurb about the organization "Building New Hope" which is helping many streets dogs get off the street and find homes in Granada. I have recently taken on a secondary volunteer job helping with the dogs in the clinic and I am in love with the kindness of these people and what they are doing.

Basically they find dogs that are dying along the side of street (if you have been to a third world country you know what I am talking about) and bring these animals back to life. I got to witness the revival of a baby chihuahua that was left for dead on the side of the street and brought into the clinic. Within two days, she is a puppy, running around and loving on all of us.

Please take the time and check out Donna Tabor's website www.buildingnewhope.org and keep them in mind if you want to help the puppies or adopt a lovely street dog (which surprisingly make amazing pets... they are wise!)

The picture at the top is Porsha who is still looking for a home. She is missing an eye due to a severe infection caused by abuse. She has an amazing personality and is sooooo friendly.

thanks Kathryn.
