Save a Life with Givebones
I’m an animal lover with a home that’s overrun by four-legged creatures. (That’s not a complaint.) All but one are rescues. My faminals – a word coined by my future son-in-law – love me in a way that makes me know they feel gratitude. No one could possibly convince me otherwise. I hate to think what might have become of them had I not given them a loving home. My heart aches whenever I see a stray cat or an abandoned dog. Animal shelters are filled to capacity with unwanted and unloved animals which, I believe with all my heart, would make wonderful companions if only they were given a chance.
Givebones, a Los Angeles based company that’s committed to “giving homeless dogs the life they deserve,” helps give shelter animals a chance. The company was founded by Tricia Andrews who, inspired by a malnourished dog named Bones, established Givebones to help the plight of homeless animals.
Givebones helps decrease the number of homeless and euthanized pets in the United States each year. “There are approximately five million to seven million furry companions that enter animal shelters each year, ” says Andrews. Givebones donates 10% of sales to rescue organizations and shelters across the country in hopes of lowering this astounding number.
