As most of you know, KeepVolunteering.org has a couple of families rebuilding right now.  One of the issues we deal with are not only the families being displaced after a disaster and during the time of rebuilding, but their family pets.  We have a wonderful family, that now after a year (plus) long battle with their insurance company, are finally getting to rebuild.  In this time frame, not only are these families fighting their insurance companies but they are also trying to recover financially from any unexpected and large expenses that come when a disaster hits and insurance does not pay.  Insurance certainly does not cover everything, so this only puts even some of our most responsible families further behind.  These are people that are never late on house payments and car payments for example, yet just seem to barely keep their head above water just after a disaster hits and finds out that their insurance will not be covering the damage.  This one family in particular is working to pay off a $3000.00 vet bill they have looming over their head, after having to put their dog in the kennel when their house was hit.  

We need your help to find a foster home for Little Maggie while this beautiful family FINALLY gets the chance to start their process of rebuilding, repairing and recovering.  Please contact us if you can foster Maggie!

Maggie is a Yellow Labrador, she is 4.5 years old and about 70 lbs. Maggie has never had a flea and has always been in good health. Maggie likes attention, when I'm using the computer or reading a book she often tries to move the mouse or book from my hand so I can pet her. Maggie likes her belly rubbed. She likes to jump up and give hugs. She likes to run and play ball. Maggie has been very protective of her family since the tornadoes; she used to be friendly with everyone but now we can't tell who she will like until she meets them. Before the tornadoes Maggie was really aggressive toward other dogs except for our neighbors dogs, now she is friendly towards some dogs. Maggie's shots are currently up to date but she will need immunizations on May 25.
