Our friends at Union County Animal Control Cobden Illinois have a few immediate needs & future needs. See the links to their Amazon lists in the post. 🐕

It has been a suuuuuper busy last couple of months here at UCAC!

We have taken in so many puppies, medical cases and just the overall amount of owner surrenders and strays have completely wiped out our supplies.

We've been fighting the quiet battles of getting an astronomical amount of dogs healthy and ready to be placed into their furever families! While it's been dreary out this morning and all the doggos are inside napping away, we've been updating our lists on amazon and taking a look at our supplies. We are in desperate need of help to continue our work and help as many dogs as possible! As long as we have our fantastic community members and supporters behind us, we won't quit!

We're pleading with everybody to offer any sort of help possible so we can keep going even when times get tough. We need you and the animals need you! Our own girls here even donate to help out as much as possible! If anybody is able to help it would be appreciated beyond belief!

We have 2 separate lists, Our "In Immediate Need" which are things we need asap like medical supplies, gowns, cleaner, etc : https://a.co/01TrOubt and also our "Wish List" which are things that would be helpful to all of us but we can go a bit longer without them : https://a.co/02Pdynbj .

Pictured is Millie, a young girl who suffered a traumatic brain injury who continues to show all of us that she wants to be here and will keep fighting as long as we do the same for her! The picture was taken the day our girls brought her in to the shelter. She is already doing MUCH better and even gives us a tail wag when we come in in the mornings!

Thank you all for the continued support and we hope each of you have a blessed day!
