An answer to an anonymous email about my trip

I received an email last night from an anonymous email address. It will not accept a reply from my email so I thought I would post it here for the writer and everyone else who may be curious.

I received an email asking who was paying for my trip to LA. I can understand people may be concerned that this is a misuse of rescue funds. Our funds are open for anyone to view if they wish which is required to be a registered society. As for my trip to LA it is being funded by myself. There are no funds being used from rescue as a part of this trip. This is a trip that I would like to make and have choosen to spend my time while in LA at the shelter working with the dogs that are there. The flight and rental car are covered by myself and I will be staying with a BRLA volunteer.

Toy fund donation update

We have received a $20 donation to start off our Toy Campaign for the BRLA shelter. $20 is a great start and will buy a couple of toys but lets keep going!
Every penny counts so please donated a dollar, $2.00, $5.00 or more!
Thank you in advance!

Donations For BRLA

Hello Everyone!

As I said in my last post I will be visiting the BRLA shelter at the end of the month. The shelter is always in need of long lasting toys, Kongs, Nylabones etc. I would love to take some down to the shelter as gifts for the waiting boxers. If anyone would be interested in donating towards purchasing these items please visit our donation page and send a donation via Paypal. Please email me to let me know the donation is for BRLA toys. I have the opportunity to purchase these at cost for the trip. Everyone who donates will have their name written in a card which will be given to the shelter along with the toys.

Donations will be accepted till Jan. 23rd so that I can have time to purchase the items before I leave. The total donations and toys will be posted.

Thank you in advance!
