Help us Help Bonnie - She has Heartworms !
Bonnie and Clyde were found roaming around Big Spring Park, filthy, hungry, and lost. A nice lady saved them and they became part of the New Leash Program. They need a foster home together, and Bonnie needs the expensive treatment for deadly heartworms. Thank goodness Clyde is heartworm negative! They have both been examined, vaccinated, dewormed, etc. by the vets at Valley Animal Hospital and they are scheduled for spay/neuter and microchips in a few days.
We are currently raising money to treat Bonnie’s heartworms, and hope to have enough in a couple of weeks. PLEASE HELP BONNIE by making a tax-deductible donation either online via paypal, or by sending a check to ANLOL P.O. Box 221, Brownsboro, AL 35741. Specify that it is for Bonnie.
….and if you would like to foster this great pair of dogs until they are adopted, please email pets@anewleash.org. We pay all vet bills. You will be responsible for food, water, shelter, and LOTS OF LOVE! They sure deserve it!

If you have lost 2 dogs, we may know where they are. 2 sweet dogs were found in Big Spring Park on Monday July 7th (lots of dogs run away around the 4th of July because they are afraid of the loud fireworks) and we would like to reunite them with their owner. They were travelling together and seem to belong together. Please email us if you have lost 2 dogs, and we will ask you to identify them. Our email is pets@anewleash.org.

Saturday, July 5th, was the first Saturday in several months that A New Leash on Life, Inc.’s foster parents and volunteers took a break from pet adoptions at Petsmart. A restful Saturday was needed to be with our families and rest.
As you may know, at A New Leash on Life, Inc., there are no paid employees and we do not have a shelter. This means that all of our foster families and volunteers spend alot of their free time caring for these homeless pets and teaching them what love is all about. Each foster pet is evaluated in a home setting before placement in a forever home. Foster homes are the heart of our program and why we believe our program is so successful. You usually know who you are getting when you adopt from us because we know the good and the bad!
We hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend and will come out to see our adoptable dogs and cats the following Saturday, July12th at Petsmart.

Everyone come out to the Dog Park this Sunday, June 29, from 2 to 5 for BARKING FOR BUCKS, a fundraiser for the Dog Spot. Many adoptable pets from A New Leash on Life, Inc, will be there running around the park…..and you will be able to identify them by the LIME GREEN BANDANAS they will be wearing! So bring your dogs out to play and come meet us this Sunday! It’s going to be a blast! Refreshments will be served for the humans. Hope to see you there!

A KITTEN EXPLOSION has occurred! In the last few weeks we have taken in 38 kittens and cats (mostly kittens) who were homeless and/or unwanted. Spaying and neutering would have prevented these, and millions of other homeless and unwanted dogs and cats who are born every day in our country. Please spay and neuter your pets …. well, have a licensed veterinarian do it. You will be glad you did, and your pet will to! Download a 1/2 price coupon from our Spay/Neuter Page.
All of these kitties, like our other foster pets who are awaiting adoption, will be spayed, neutered, MICROCHIPPED, vaccinated, tested, dewormed, etc. and they will be waiting for YOU to come down and pick a few out. They make wonderful companions!
We invite you to bring all your friends and come to our Jones Valley Petsmart adoption events, Saturdays from 2pm to 6pm , in the back of the store (it’s too hot outside now) to see our wonderful pets for adoption. They are all housed in approved foster homes before adoption, so we can care for them in a home setting and get to know them. Fostering is a wonderful way to share your home and love with a homeless dog or cat . Email pets@anewleash.org if you would like to foster with us!
