Timberwolf Organics: Sponsor a Bag Fundraiser

We are so thrilled by the support we have received for this fundraiser. Unfortunately - the chipin event has expired and chipin won't let us extend the end date, but people are still wanting to donate...who knows, maybe we can raise enough funds for a third pallet!

If you want to contribute to the Timberwolf Sponsor-A-Bag fund, we have started a new donations page which can be reached by clicking the link below

Thank you so much for caring!

So far we have raised over $300 towards the shipping for our dog food donation! Thank you so much to Heather, Jim, Brett, Linda, Coastal Maine Great Dane Rescue, Cindy, and Holly for supporting our efforts!

More good news - yesterday we received an updated shipping estimate from Timberwolf - It looks like on the high end - the shipping will be $765.00. Keeping in mind that prices can change almost daily because of gas prices - but this goal is much more attainable for us!

Thank you to everyone for chiping in!

We received incredible news today! Timberwolf Organics has generously offered to donate one to two PALLETS of its wonderful top grade dog food to the Maine branch of Dogs Deserve Better.

One pallet of food contains 60, 33-LB bags of dog food - enough to feed our dogs for approximately 6 months. Two pallets would be enough to keep our dogs healthy and happy for ONE YEAR!

There is one catch - which is why we need your help...In order to collect on this generous offer, we must pay for the shipping from the Timberwolf Organics warehouse in Kansas to Maine.

Estimated shipping costs for one pallet of dog food is $700 - which sounds expensive, but actually works out to cost a little more than $10.00 per bag. Considering a single bag of this dog food costs $65.00 retail...this is an incredible opportunity for our rescue.

We would LOVE to take Timberwolf Organics up on its offer of TWO pallets, but we are not sure we can raise enough funds to cover the shipping...Estimated shipping for two pallets is $1000.

Please consider sponsoring the shipping on one bag of dog food ($10.00). If we can find 70 people to sponsor one bag of food - that will cover the shpping costs for one pallet of dog food! If 100 people sponsor a bag...We can feed our rescue dogs for ONE YEAR!

In this economy - we really need your help. It is becoming harder every day for us to continue, and the numbers of dogs that need our help are increasing for the same reasons.

Our pups thank you for caring!
