MANY of you know how passionate I am about animal rights and that I spend most early mornings volunteering at my local animal shelter. Not only do the animals rely on volunteers for daily walks and socialization, these future family pets rely on monetary donations for just about everything—from life saving surgery to dog biscuits, donors save the lives of these animals so that they can find their forever families. Please donate if you can, and I encourage you to volunteer at your local shelter. There are so many ways you can make an impact. Together we can make a difference! Together we can Walk for the Animals!

We are made up of dedicated aps Volunteers, where we change kitty litter; walk dogs; train dogs; let dogs play in playgroup; foster tiny kittens; bring in peanut butter, hotdogs, treats and more peanut butter!APS is more than a shelter to us. It's a place bursting with heart and hope. It is where dogs come with matted hair; where expectant cat moms come ready to give birth to kittens; where bunnies, birds, hamsters -- you name it-- come for care. It is where the volunteers and staff give their love to creatures of all sizes. It's a beginning for an animal who comes through our doors; the beginning of their transformation and journey to a new, loving home.There are so many ways to make a difference. Reading this email is one of them! Monetary donations are appreciated, but please consider volunteering, adopting, sharing posts or even dropping used towels off. Thanks for taking the time to learn about the shelter that we work so hard and pour our hearts into!It's not about how much anyone gives; it's that if great numbers take the time to give a small amount, it will carry the animals of Durham that much further.

Help me reach the fundraising goal for the APS! They are the only community organization in Durham NC that takes in and cares for all animals who come through their door. I’ve been volunteering here since 2017 and every year they improve on the last. They can only keep improving with our support! The dog in the pic with me is Gamora. She was able to get knee surgery through the generous donations given to the APS. She rehabbed at my house until she was able to be eligible for adoption. The APS stuck with her. Your donation will save animals from our community who are cared for by the staff and volunteers at the APS.

Please support me in the 2023 Walk for the AnimalsThe Animal Protection Society of Durham will hold its 2023 Walk for the Animals on May 27 on Duke University’s East Campus, and I'm participating this year in memory of my dog, Grayson, who we lost to cancer this spring. Our family adopted him from a schnauzer rescue group in 2012, after he was surrendered to a local shelter.APS is Durham's local animal shelter, and the walk helps support programs that ensure humane care for homeless and neglected animals in the area. It takes about $300 to care for an animal during its stay with APS. This includes life-saving vaccinations, spay/neuter surgery, microchipping, parasite prevention and treatment, basic/preventative medical care, food and boarding.Please help support APS and the Walk for the Animals by giving online: https://fundraise.givesmart.com/vf/2023WALKAPS/CaraBonnettThank you for your support!

Grab a leash* and help APS reach our goal of raising $110,000 for the animals with the Walk For The Animals fundraising event! I'm the team captain of the Volun-TEAM and we are raising funds for The Walk for the Animals 2023. I have been a volunteer at Aps for over eight years, where I work walking dogs and training other volunteers to walk them, too. Aps is more than a shelter to me. It's a place bursting with heart and hope. It is where dogs come with matted hair; where expectant cat moms come ready to give birth to kittens; where bunnies, birds, hamsters -- you name it-- come for care. It is where the volunteers and staff give their love to creatures of all sizes. It's a beginning for an animal who comes through our doors; the beginning of their transformation and journey to a new, loving home. I'm very proud to be a member of the Behavior Team. We've studied animal expressions and body language so that we can interact with shy pups at the back of their kennels in a non-threatening way. We also retrain behavior that might prevent an adoption, such as jumping on humans or any number of not-so-endearing traits. Through gentle coaxing, re-direction and positive attention, the Behavior Team works with the hardest to place animals and helps them adapt to the trials of shelter life. There are so many ways to make a difference. Reading this email is one of them! Monetary donations are appreciated, but please consider volunteering, adopting, sharing posts or even dropping used towels by the facility near you. Thanks for taking the time to learn about the shelter that is so near to my heart. It's not about how much anyone gives; it's that if great numbers take the time to give a small amount, it will carry the animals of Durham that much further. Love

Look at this champion! Zoey is on for walk for the animals in need. She's got the eyes of the dog and the tongue of the dog because she's a dog. Let's sponsor her walk!
