Montreal Dog Blog, Paw It Forward 2018
Donation protected
Help us give back to local animal charities in time for Christmas! And win awesome prizes!
Since 2011, Montreal Dog Blog 's annual "Paw It Forward" Campaign has been giving back to the animal rescue community thanks to our ad revenue on the blog (best advertisers ever!). As a 100% non-profit, volunteer blog, we rely on these funds to gift donations to deserving animal charities every holiday season.
We know how tirelessly the animal rescue community works year round to help pets find their forever homes. Regular costs of sterilization, medical bills, grooming, food and housing all add up! Not to mention those special cases and unexpected costs, that can quickly tap financial resources.
This year, our goal is to donate $4000! We’ve got $2500 and an extra $1500 will get us there! This money would be dispersed into generous holiday checks for a number of animal rescues just in time for the holidays. The more we raise, the more we donate!
Recipients of Paw It Forward over the years:
PetitsPawz, Animatch, Rosie Animal Adoption, Humane Society International, Gerdy's Rescue, Westies in Need, Frontier Animal Society, Le Nichoir, Best Friends Spay/Neuter Clinic, Chatopia, Boxer Rescue Quebec, Verdun Cat Refuge, Pilots and Paws Canada, Kanahwake Animal Protection - and more!
Can you help us help Montreal's pet community in time for the holidays? Thanks for your support and Happy Pawlidays! <3
