The 2026 Auction will be held October 28th through November 2nd

 

The online auction is our 2nd biggest fundraiser of the year, and our goal this year is to raise $85,000 to provide routine and emergency veterinary care for the hundreds of dogs that come into the Rescue’s care.

 

We need your help. Please consider supporting this event with a tax-deductible donation of a gift card; new items for dogs (toys, collars/leashes, harnesses, treats); new items that would appeal to Lab lovers, dog lovers, and animal lovers; hand-crafted items like quilts and afghans; holiday-themed items (since the auction is just a couple months before the winter holidays); vacations (maybe you have a vacation home or timeshare you’d like to donate); etc.  Please email Carol at clagundo1@icloud.com if you’d like to make a donation for the auction or if you’re unsure of what to donate. 

​

We are hoping to have all donations in hand by Friday, October 23, so that the auction team has time to photograph and list the items online.

​

Also, if you have some spare time and would like to help solicit donations, we can really use the help! It’s as easy as taking this letter to a few local businesses and asking if they’d consider supporting the auction and the rescue’s lifesaving efforts with an auction donation.
