Spring Fling Online Auction for Critical Care Animals
As most of our followers are already aware, WAG has had a very busy start to 2023. We have had over 70 animals come through our doors!! This includes 2 litters of puppies and 4 litters of kittens. Nearly 20 of those 70 animals have been Critical Care cases. Critical Care is defined as any medical need or expense that goes above and beyond the routine deworming, vaccination, and spay-neuter protocol.
The shelter staff have been working tirelessly to care for all of these special animals and their varying needs of aid. In order to continue to help all these amazing animals we need your support.
WAG is hosting an Online Auction for our Critical Care animals. 100% of the proceeds from this online auction will go directly to our Critical Care program. Helping those animals who need it the most.
ABOVE: Cosmo, who was born in the shelter is just one of the kittens WAG has taken in this year so far.
Online Auction begins Saturday, May 27th at 10am.
Auction ends Sunday, June 11th at 7pm.
The auction will end at the Pups + Pints event on the afternoon of June 11th at Coast Mountain Brewing. Supporters are encouraged to come out with their dogs, enjoy some tasty beverages and finish up the auction.
**All bidding will still go through our online website but if you are onsite at the end of the auction you get to take your item home that evening**
THANK YOU to all our amazing donors!
