We have been very busy the last few weeks trying to organize rescue efforts from Turkey due to the pending CDC ban on importing international dogs effective July 14, 2021. I want to personally thank all of the efforts of our volunteer board members with their quick response in getting the GoFundMe organized, contacting our rescue operations in Turkey and arranging for transports/foster for the pending flights. I’m also completely overwhelmed by the donations received thus far for this effort. We have so many supporters to help our cause. Thank you to all of you who have donated!
Lastly, just a reminder to keep your pups off the pavement/sidewalks as the temperatures rise during the day. If it is too hot for you to walk on, it is WAY too hot for them.
Keep an eye on our Facebook page/website for updates on the arrivals from Turkey and as always, thanks for supporting our mission!
Best,Susan
