Operation Doggie treats was created in memory of my beloved German Shepherd, Gunner, that crossed the rainbow Bridge in April of 2016. The mission is to get doggie treats (and other needed items) to dogs in local shelters & beyond, while they wait for their furr ever homes. Started in December 2016 after a friend, Donna G. who volunteers at a local shelter told me that doggie treats in the shelter
were getting low. To date (3/2021) approximately 4000 pounds of treats have been either personally delivered or shipped to over 35 shelters in NYS and on several occasions - other states. Most recently, Operation Doggie treats shipped 250 pounds of Purina dog Chow (plus some treats) to a shelter that rescued over 20 dogs affected by Hurricane Harvey. In September, 2017, Operation doggie Treats will be an official 501(c)(3) charity organization, which means your donations will be tax deductible. Every dollar donated gets approximately one pound of treats to dogs in shelters. This is a very rewarding opportunity to help dogs. No dog should be without doggie treats while they are in a shelter, scared, lonely and confused. Please consider sending a donation, in any amount, even a dollar, to: Judy Mulrooney (or to Operation Doggie Treats) 505 Lois Lane Niskayuna NY 12304. Thank you for your support :)
