Last Chance Arkansas 2000K Rescue Run
Casts Light on Stray Dog Problem in Arkansas
Carrie Kessler and Lisa Mantle of Last Chance Arkansas recently delivered
ten dogs to Rondout Valley Animals For Adoption in Accord, New York for
adoption. The 2000K Rescue Run was the first time they had personally
delivered dogs. Last Chance Arkansas is a non-profit 501C3 organization
dedicated to rescuing dogs from the Little Rock Animal Village (shelter).
At risk dogs are placed in foster homes until they are healthy and
available for adoption. Rondout Valley Animals For Adoption is a
privately owned open admission shelter. Due to strict enforcement
of the animal laws, New York actually has a shortage of adoptable dogs.

Turn Your Compassion into Action
Last Chance Arkansas is an all volunteer organization that has one primary purpose
- finding homes for the many homeless dogs in the Little Rock Animal Village. If you
would like to know more about why we do what we do, Georgia's story will help you
understand.
This is Georgia when she entered the shelter. Georgia was in a dire
situation - pregnant and trying to survive
alone on the streets of Little Rock when she was picked up.
Although she then had a warm, dry place to sleep, she was still
very scared and lonely living in the shelter. She deserved a loving home, a soft
bed, good food, toys and, most importantly, a loving family.
Here is Georgia now in her new home in Victoria, BC Canada - thanks to
our rescue partner,
Mosaic Rescue!
What a beautiful picture and such a stark contrast ot where she was just a few months ago
Happy endings such as this are why we do what we do. If you would like to help make
more of these happy endings possible please donate or volunteer.
