The total raised at the 2009 Give Paws event was nearly $27,000! That's a 7% increase over last year's event - and a wonderful amount for the Dumb Friends League. Pretty amazing, considering the current economy.
To all who worked, donated, and participated, and all who came to make this possible, our deepest thanks. Dudley and his pals will have much better lives thanks to all of you.
