(PRESS RELEASE) The COVID-19 Pandemic has caused widespread economic duress to many families in the region. This duress, in turn, has led to increased dog surrenders and decreased adoptions. Thousands of dogs need forever homes. In an effort to bring the issue to the public,encourage more adoptions, and good stewardship of dogs and wetlands, Marsh Dog is donating a bag of Wild Nutria Blueberry treats with every adoption from a participating partner. The campaign runs through the months of August and September. Participating partners include Friends of the Animals, Capital Area Animal Alliance, Hope & Hearts 4 Paws, St. Tammany Animal Shelter, St. Charles Animal Shelter, Jefferson SPCA, Jefferson Parish Animal Shelter, Zeus’ Rescues, Take Paws Rescue, Metairie Humane Shelter, and Animal Rescue NOLA.
In concert with “Save a dog. Save our Wetlands,” Marsh Dog also sponsors “Mardi Paws Bark Week” and support area efforts in the national “Clear the Shelters” campaign.
