GROWL is so excited to announce that due to the efforts of the volunteers, fosters, donors and sponsors that over 700 animals were rescued from shelters and re-homed by GROWL during the year 2009. Congratulations to each and every GrowlKid that now has a warm home with a soft bed and most importantly a LOVING family to spend the rest of their lives with! August 21, 2009 was a devastating day for GROWL. The GROWL transport van was crushed when a truck plowed into the side of it while it was full of rescued animals some of the dogs even escaped the van and ran towards the interstate. While Dawn, the driver, was not injured, she quickly saw one of her personal dogs had not been so lucky. Major Winchester was pinned between the seat and the door. With the help of some locals, Dawn was able to get Major out of the van and he passed away on her lap. Meanwhile, Good Samaritans who had seen the crash went to gather the rest of the dogs. Luckily, noone else was hurt. While we are so grateful that so many lives were saved in such a horrific crash and Dawn is still missing her sweet little Major Winchester (a GROWL rescue from Ohio), we are also trying to raise the funds for a new GROWL van. Our GROWL van was a lifeline for so many rescued GrowlKids who went from the shelter they were rescued from to their new homes. If you would like to make a donation to help get our new GROWL van (which will be named "The Major Mobile" after Major Winchester), you can: Send a paypal donation to: mygrowl@yahoo.com or you can mail a donation to: GROWL PO Box 291371 Columbia, SC 29229 |
