Rescued Dogs in Jamacia Need Water - Please Help


What would you do if you suddenly had no water for 100 rescued dogs?

Can you imagine trying to handle the situation by filling buckets and bringing them from home? You might be lucky, if you had enough volunteers, to get just enough water for drinking. Never mind what you need for cleaning tasks.

ANIMAL HOUSE JAMACIA needs our help right now to provide water to their dogs - here's their story:

"We have a major problem at the moment and seriously need help.

The company that was supplying our water handed the water line over to a new company which, in turn, and without notice, discontinued our water supply saying it was too expensive to continue same.

Given that we have over 100 dogs at this location you can imagine what a difficult situation this has placed us in. We are negotiating with them but thus far they haven't budged an inch.

For the short term, it appears that all we can do is purchase tanks and a pressure pump and have water trucked in - not an ideal solution but the only option at present.

Major stumbling block here is that we don't have the funds to do this."

If you can help, please visit us at theanimalhousejamaica.org and scroll to the bottom to make a donation via Paypal or send a check to:

About Animal House Jamacia:

Founded in the 1990's because of serious concerns about the plight of animals on
the northcoast of Jamaica, THE ANIMAL HOUSE JAMAICA has been helping stray, injured, abandoned, and feral (wild) animals and their owners ever since. We provide food, shelter, medical care (including spay and neuter), and adoptive services to both animals and owners in need.

These folks desperately need our help, so if you can give even $2, go to theanimalhousejamaica.org and make a donation today.

All rescues struggle to get funds for food and medical care - but without water, the rest won't help at all.
