Hello! :)

OCTOBER is Adopt A Shelter Dog awareness month!  Part of Dogs Of A Good Society's vision is to 'promote awareness through community outreach' to assist with important topics such as this.  As D.O.G.S. is working on networking with rescues to assist animals; we would love to hear from you on what we can do to help your organization with this awareness month.  Feel free to leave comments below or contact us at www.dogsofagoodsociety.org

At A Glance....

Hello everyone! :)

Dogs Of A Good Society at a glance these past couple of weeks.....

Our Giveaway winner:  FreeBorn CoDogs P-Projects  check out the great work they do on their FB page.

They will receive a gas card to assistance with transporting animals in need.  Way to go!

Stay tuned for our September Giveaway to an organization that assist animals in need. :)  Contact us when you see our announcement on FB and Twitter @ D_O_G_S_MN 

Kibble, kibble lots of kibble.  Thanks to our generous donors from Target and individuals we are able to donate food to rescues and organizations that need it.  This month we donated over 300 lbs of food to rescues and shelter to help meet their basic needs of feeding animals!  THANK YOU!  Does your organization need food contact us @ www.dogsofagoodsociety.org

We are anxiously waiting to hear back from the IRS about our status, it's too soon to know.  We will keep you posted.  

Until next time!

All the best,

D.O.G.S.

Running Out of Gas?

Running out of gas?  We can help!  Dogs Of A Good Society is starting  'giveaways' for organizations who assist animals in need.  Does your organization/agency/rescue/shelter help animals and lend them a voice?  Well we would love to help out however we can.  This is an effort to collaborate with other organizations, spread the word about D.O.G.S. and to just lend a hand to those who share our vision-'to assist animals in need'  In August we will be giving away a $25 gas card for transportation assistance. We will announce the winner at the end of the month!  Stay tuned for more to come!

Help us share and follow us.   Thanks for all your support!

Until next time,

Signed, Sealed and Sent!!!!

Hello everyone! :)

It's done and weight off the shoulders, now all we can do is WAIT! :(  

We finally sent our 501c3 application to the IRS today.  After approximately 8 months of working on/off of all that is needed for the application: articles of incorporation, by laws, conflict policy, forming a board, applications with the state, etc.  We finally got to HERE.  The application was revised numerous times.  Our fingers will be crossed for the next few months (while we wait for an approval or denial).  Wish us luck!

I've been a happier girl since it was mailed.  Can't wipe this smile off my face! :)

Whether we get approved or denied, it has been a wonderful learning experience and I am grateful to have shared it with amazing people who helped make it happen!  To the board members, family, friends, supporters and my mentor for all their support!!!  Now we wait, we'll keep you posted!  Thank you!!!

Until then we are keeping busy with D.O.G.S. mission-TO ASSIST ANIMALS IN NEED  :)
