Wes Memorial Fund Donations for the month of April

A month of many changes. It starts with April Fools day. A day to play pranks. A day to make fools out of people. IBR finds this "fools" day to be very appropriate for the fools that think abandoning dogs is okay. To treat them like they have no feelings. To discard them like trash. What Fools!

Luckily, April also brings new beginnings with Spring. Sprouting flowers after a long winter. Our dogs are like flowers too. With loving care, they begin to blossom into the dog's they never had the chance to be.

April brings warmer days and longer daylight to enjoy. For the fortunate dogs in our foster program, they get to enjoy the warmer weather with walks and play into the evenings with people that love them.

All of this is possible through your donations. Thank you.

Without your support and compassion, we wouldn't be in a position to provide the basic needs that are so instrumental to their well being.
