Thankful Thursday.....

We know we have talked before about the local clinic that does low cost spay/neuter and helps out lots of rescues.....

Mom forgot that Tuesday was Blog the Change so she decided to add it to Thankful Thursday and tell you about the latest efforts of SOS of Ohio.

Some of the staff and some of their volunteers are in the Bahamas this week helping out with Operation Potcake. You can see pictures from their facebook site here.

They are using local businesses and spaying and neutering dogs - for free!!!  From what we can see, they did 299 the first day and 262 on day two.

From their website: "Potcakes are local dogs, a mix of many different breeds. They may resemble a typical pariah dog or have hound, mastiff, spaniel, terrier, or retriever characteristics. Although appearance varies, potcake dogs generally have smooth coats, cocked ears, and long faces."

We couldn't be prouder of our local vet, techs, staff and volunteers who are taking time out to help these animals in need.  They are already running over the money they have on hand, so if you are someone you know has some coffee money you haven't spent yet, please let them know and donate.  Their goal is to spay/neuter and medically treat at least 2,000 animals in 10 days.

SOS and all the volunteers helping Operation Potcake - YOU ROCK!!!
