2009 in Review

2009 was a tough year for so many families who had to give up their family pets for any number of reasons, but through the love and generosity of the many consistent supporters of AAMR, the Rescue had a very positive year.  We have been blessed to have a great core group of volunteers ... and we always need more ... to help with events and daily care of our foster pups.  The financial support we have received from many of our adopters and friends has been significant and so greatly appreciated.  We can't do this without you!

Our mail during the holidays was filled with updated photos of so many pups adopted from AAMR, and it is always heartwarming for us to get those.  We also appreciate so much the very generous monetary donations included with many of your holiday greetings.  It is very gratifying to know that so many of you appreciate and support what we do for these wonderful pups.  I know we still need to contact many of you individually to say 'thank you,' and hope to do that soon!

A Big Thank You to Viriginia Linen Service!

Virginia Linen Service donated 30 washable underpads to AAMR.  These pads are very comfortable for pups to lie on and very absorbent.  They are wonderful especially when pups need just a little extra comfort in their beds.  We sincerely appreciate this very generous donation.
