Rescuer Needs Your Help - updated

On 15 December 2011, a dedicated rescuer faced the biggest fear of most pet owners: a fire in her home.

The house is a total loss, but that's not important to her... she is utterly devastated that she was only able to save 2 of the 7 rescues in her care.

The Houston Pittie Pack is not only a champion of the Pittie breed, but a savior to abused, injured, and gimpy pitties that have experienced the worst in mankind. 

The Dogs With Blogs community, and rescue communities are joining together to get her the help she needs to care for herself, her family, and the two survivors.

A ChipIn has been started by reliable resources to make sure she gets the basics of life for her and the pups.  Once we get a mailing address you will be able to send gift cards to help her rebuild her life and her heart.

From everyone at Gimpy Dogs, our heart goes out to Houston Pittie Pack, and we mourn the loss of the pups and wish them safe passage across the Rainbow Bridge.

To learn more about those who were lost, visit The Brat Pack blog where you can also donate, or simply donate below.

 UPDATED 12/18/2011
Your generosity knows no bounds, and we are humbled by the response to the Houston Pittie Pack!  As of 1:04pm, over $5,000 has been donated through ChipIn to help them.  There have been people asking to send them things, so we're linking directly to instructions on what they need and how you can help, as well and straight to the ChipIn link for them (since our widget wasn't updating).

To find out how else to help, go to Mayzie's blog for details.
