Guest guest Posted October 5, 2000 Report Share Posted October 5, 2000 GIZMO NEEDS OUR HELP! I work with one of our local humane societies to help deal with the incredible problem of abused, abandoned and unwanted animals in our area. The need is tremendous on a good day. Yesterday, I met the newest addition to The Good Shepherd's efforts. His name is Gizmo and he is a little white wiry terrier mix with big pointy ears that kind of act like radar. He is a neat little character who walks into a room and lights it up, all the while stealing your heart while you aren't looking. Despite all of his troubles, he continues to be friendly, funny and a sweet little fellow to everyone. I don't know all of the circumstances as to how he ended up with The Good Shepherd but I was informed by our director last evening that at his vet visit it was discovered that he has a fractured jaw. We don't know how this came to be but it needs to be fixed. Here is where I hope all of you will come in. The surgery and care that Gizmo is going to have will be very expensive but The Good Shepherd is a volunteer based, no-kill shelter. If it can be fixed and an animal given a second chance at getting a loving home where they will be safe for the rest of their lives, they do whatever it takes. So I am going to ask each of you to look into your heart and see if you can justify a few dollars out of your budget this month to help us, help Gizmo. This isn't a hoax and you can check out the organization's web page at: http://www.dogsaver.org/goodshepherd/index.html Each dollar you send is completely tax-deductible. Checks can be made out to: THE GOOD SHEPHERD HUMANE SOCIETY and can be mailed to: The Good Shepherd Humane Society 10 Dover Square Sharpsburg, GA 30277 If you will mark clearly on your check and the envelope for GIZMO and include a sheet of paper with your name, email address and amount donated, I will personally see that you are sent a receipt via email to give to verify your donation to the IRS. Any and all help you can provide will be greatly appreciated and will give Gizmo a much needed second chance at the life he is supposed to lead. If you have made it this far, thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope that you can find it in your heart to help.
