One very generous person in the Yukon as already paid $300 toward Pepper's $650 bill and AAS is paying the balance.

But there are almost certain to be more bills for this battered dog now that she is in Robyn's capable and compassionate healing hands.

Monthly donors are critical for the survival of AAS and its work. Without monthly donations we can't always say "Yes" to a sudden need to pay a vet bill; (most of our needs are sudden!). We can't plan. Many people make generous donations to us once a year and we are so grateful for their generosity, but if those donations are spread over twelve months, we can operate much more effectively. And being effective for suffering animals is what we want with all our hearts to always be.
