Hello again from East Mississippi Animal Rescue! We hope this report finds you happy and well. As the summer begins and many people look forward to their vacations, we are hard at work here at the rescue. Your unwavering support has allowed us to continue our mission here in Mississippi - where it seems the work is neverending.
Today, we'd like to focus on how your donation helps when it comes to grooming animals in our care. While all animals in our care receive basic grooming such as bathing and brushing, there are some who require a little extra in order to get them looking and feeling healthy again.
Cinder and Marley are two dogs who have recently received care from our organization. Both dogs came in severely matted and in need of some serious TLC. For dogs, grooming isn't just about looks. Proper grooming and hygiene helps keep dogs healthy and prevent serious problems. The matted hair you see on Cinder and Marley can often lead to skin irritation and wounds, as well as providing a space for fleas and ticks to hide, among other problems.
Your donations help us purchase grooming supplies such as shampoos, skin treatments, dog clippers, and blades. Blades can grow dull, especially after cases such as these two, and often need to be replaced.
As you can see, proper grooming and care made a huge difference for Cinder and Marley. Not only do they look better but they literally had weight lifted off and feel so much better!
Thank you for continuing to support our rescue mission. Cinder and Marley say "Thank you!" as well!
