The Animal Rescue Site just posted the official results of the latest Shelter Challenge and we came in fourth nationwide, just behind Best Friends, winning a $3,000 grant for the animals at the ranch! The announcement says more than 12,000 animal rescue groups participated. Wow.
Thank you to everyone who kept voting, day after day, to make this happen. Alayne and I are so grateful to every one of you for your tremendous support! A woof, a meow, and a whinny of thanks!
I know it’s not first prize again, but every little bit helps!! Congrats!

Go Rolling Dog and all its supporters. I wish it were a hundred times this amount as the cost of the move must be astronomical!!!

Yay!…Wait, what? I’m thrilled we won the money, but I thought we had to be in third place to get the $3,000 and we came in fourth so…? I guess I need to go back and look over the rules more carefully. And again, YAY!

Congratulations! I was so happy to see you are able to add a little more to the money pot to help out with the furry kids & help in the move. I was kind of sad because for the first time the rescue place I adopted my sweet kitty Erin was on the list & they didn’t get anything. I had to divide my votes between the 2 of you but I was so hoping they would get some much needed help too. It makes me sad because so many rescue places are out there & so many need help. In reality I just wish there didn’t have to be so many & the whole world cared. And, this brings me to a huge thank you for what RDR represents & protecting & caring as much as you both do for these wonderful animals.

I’m so relieved that the RDR got some money! I voted every day & the situation was looking rather dire. I love the photo of Gabe in the laundry basket. He’s so precious. Please give him a big hug from me.
Welcome home, Steve! I’m sure that Alayne’s not the only one glad to have you back in Mt!
Big hugs to all,

Congratulations! You truly deserve every penny of whatever comes your way! Almost time to start voting again… I kept shooting emails to friends throughout the contest, asking and reminding them to vote. What was really good to do was forward one of Steve’s posts when the pic or story was particularly cute or moving. Good responses. Don’t be afraid to keep reminding folks!
