We need collars!Every dog that comes to our rescue and gets adopted out deserves their own brand new collar, and it's time for us to stock up on collars. We need about 150 collars.

We are looking for the Martingale collars in Red, Blue, Purple, Black or Green. We have the greatest need for size Small and Medium, but could also use some large ones.https://canisgear.com/collections/martingale-medium. USE CODE 2020 AT CHECKOUT FOR FREE SHIPPING.

Donating Supplies
Hands 2 Paws is always in need of various supplies.... I know some people like to donate items instead of money as they like to immediately see the results of their donations. If anyone would like like to help us with these items we would greatly appreciate it. We have included vendors that we frequently use and know that have good prices, but if you have other options that is fine.
Items can be shipped or brought directly to Hands to Paws, 1727 Forest Creek Rd, Augusta GA 30909 Also, we are trying to provide our dogs with Kuranda ShelterBeds. These highly durable beds are made specifically for animal welfare and hold up to heavy chewing and digging. They provide a clean, safe, comfortable resting place for our dogs. To donate a bed, please visit https://donate.shelterbeds.org/348295 . Your donated bed will be shipped directly to us. |
