Click on link to view our P & L NC Vest-A-Dog
Hello, Our 2013 P & L for the year end has been added above. You are free to take a look. We did not have much activity in 2013. We hope that with every ones help 2014 will be a lot more active.
In 2013 we almost went to Burlington Day School. At the last moment things changed and we could not get the approval. We had hoped to raise enough money to buy bullet proof vests for the Burlington Police Department. We had a K-9 standing by to do a demonstration for the children.
Tiffany and Tracy were married in March 2013 they asked their guests to donate to NC Vest-A-Dog and other charities instead of buying gifts.
Anyone else wanting to help? Lets get together to help these dogs!
We are looking for Schools that would be interested in having a fundraiser. If you have a child in grade school and you feel our cause would work for that school please forward the contact information.
We are also looking for companies that would like to sponsor a dog in their county. Sponsorship would including running fundraising events.
If you are a K-9 handler and you are in need of a vest then please send us your information.
The young pup and the older dog lay on shaded sweet grass watching the reunions. Sometimes a man, sometimes a woman, sometimes a whole family would approach the Rainbow Bridge, be greeted by their loving pets and cross the bridge together.
The young pup playfully nipped at the older one. “Look! Something
wonderful is happening!” The older dog stood up and barked, “Quickly.
Get over to the path.”
“But that’s not my owner,” whined the pup, but he did as he was told.
Thousands of pets surged forward as a figure in white walked on the path toward the bridge.
As the glowing figure passed each animal, that animal bowed its head in
love and respect. The figure finally approached the bridge, and was
met by a menagerie of joyous animals. Together, they all walked over the
bridge and disappeared.
The young pup was still in awe. “Was that an angel?” he whispered.
“No, son.” The older dog replied. “That was more than an angel.
That was a person who worked rescue.”

Polk County, Florida — Talk about trying to protect man’s best friend. A Polk County church gave a local K-9 dog his very own bulletproof vest on Sunday.
Money raised by the First Presbyterian Church youth group paid for the vest for Ringo. He and partner Officer Jose Molina are part of the Avon Park Police Department.
Each vest costs about a thousand dollars.
Avon Park Police Chief Michael Rowan says it’s refreshing to see the community working together with the police department. “From the bottom of our hearts, we thank this community, who stepped up to support the police department. To me, that’s just more of a relationship building…that’s unheard of anymore,” said Chief Rowan.
The church got the idea while thinking about the deaths of Polk Deputy Matt Williams and his K-9 parner Diogi back in 2006. Pastor Blackwell says Diogi may have survived if he was wearing a bulletproof vest.
