Your First Best Friend

The Immigration Law Offices of Cynthia R. Exner, LLC is a proud sponsor of the dog and puppy rescue charitable organization known as Tails of Courage.

 

Do you remember the very first dog you had as a child?  He was your first Best Friend, always thrilled to see you when you got home from school, even if you had done poorly on a test, or missed the ball at soccer practice or been bullied or ridiculed by classmates.  Your dog slept by your side, walked by your side, and was always there for you.

Every child should be able to experience the unconditional love that a dog provides.  Having a pet keeps a child active, teaches patience, love and understanding.  By including a child in the care and raising of a dog instills nurturing responsibility for another living being at an early age, and provides wonderful memories to last a lifetime.

Tails of Courage would like to see every child have the opportunity of dog ownership.  Do you know a child who would enjoy receiving a dog or puppy this holiday season?  What better gift than the gift of a life.  All of the dogs at Tails of Courage have been rescued.  Some were abandoned, some were discarded, and some were neglected.  Dogs are very resilient, and given love and attention, they will return that love several times over. 

 

Tails of Courage has over 30 adult dogs and puppies all looking for a child to love and care for them; to run and play with them, and to devote the remainder of their days to.

 

Please consider adopting a rescue dog or puppy for the holidays.  You will not only be adding a wonderful member to your family, but you will be saving the life of a creature that has nothing left to give but love.

 

Log on to www.tailsofcourage.org and take a look at all the adoptable dogs and puppies.  Tails of Courage is located at One Pembroke Road, Danbury, CT and is open every day from 9:00 to 5:30 for adoptions.  You can complete an application online, and take home your new baby. 

 

Don’t forget to check out the Tails of Courage (TOC) coffee available at www.raisemoneyforpets.com .  This makes a great holiday gift and for each bag of coffee purchased, $3.00 is donated to Tails of Courage.  Your $3.00 can help feed a dog or puppy.  Be sure to scroll through the charities until you reach the TOC coffee!

 

The next Adoption Event is scheduled for this coming Saturday, December 7, 2013 at Petsmart, 288 West Avenue, Stamford, CT from 1:00 to 3:00.  Please come out and support Tails of Courage, and consider adding a new member to your holiday celebrations.  With your help, maybe everyone can be Home for the Holidays.
