On Saturday September 4 from 11-2 FPALR will be at Petsmart in McHenry
Donations Needed: With the slow economy, and the amount of dogs needing help we are in desperate need of donations to upkeep the facility and the outrageous rent of 2300 we are paying, for saving animals which would be destroyed. Without your help we will not be able to keep it open!
Make A Difference ... Adopt A Pet ... Save A Life!
"Venus is my name, and fun is my game! I am a beatiful, 2 year old, black lab mix gal! I can be a little selective of my poochie pals, but i do love playing with my "big brothers"! I would love to have a home with kids, but make sure their grown up, i wouldn't want to knock them over! I love to play with my toys, especially when my poochie pals play with me! Do you know someone who will love me forever? Could it be you?!"

FPALR IS ASKING FOR YOUR HELP
Please if you could open your home and hearts to help a dog in need. We are in desperate need for foster homes as much as permanent homes for dogs to save at least one of the many dogs that are being euthanized every day. Limited at the Shelter itself to the amount of dogs we may have, we are turning down dogs everyday shedding many tears when we see their faces and know we have no room to take them in. FPALR will provide food and medical for the dog that you are willing to help. Contact info@fortunatelabrescue.org and say yes I want to help a dog today.

Marley would love to come stay at your house after his surgery. We are paying for this out of our pockets with no funding being received from any Government programs. Better yet he would love to have a permanent home. Can you help us help him ?
Foster to Adopt Thank you
FPALR was devasted to learn that one of the HIGH KILL SHELTERS we rescue dogs from had to euthanize 65 dogs in the last few weeks due not having enough shelters offering to take dogs in. Every shelter is filled to its capacity with the economy the way it is, and the animals are suffering as well. There for in order to try and save more, we wll be having a AUGUST Special for the rest of the month .
ADULT DOGS will be $225.00 this includes all vetting and microchip
SPECIAL PRICINGon long time ladiesRoxy, Venus, Abby and Lillian( LILLIAN IS ADOPTED, YEAH) at $125.00.
PUPS are $290.00.
By adopting aBest Frienddo you realize you will be giving one a great home and saving another one at the same time. We ask that you fill out the application before coming to the shelter so we can spend more time with you and the "one " you are taking home.
This special pricing is effective for month of August only or til further notice...No price adjustments will be made for previous adoptions
SPECIAL LADIES NEED SPECIAL HOMES SPECIAL PRICING
Can you help one of them. None of the issues they have are their faults, it is thru prior owners whom never socialized these dogs perhaps, or allowed them to be the "control" factor in their homes or just totally abused neglected and or ignored them. BUT they can be dealt with and worked thru. They can be your best friend and well behaved if YOU give them the chance. Many puppy mill dogs have found their forever homes, abused dogs are now living a great life that were saved by FPALR. Please take a moment and read the stories below and let us know if you might be the one they have been waiting for.
$125.00 FOR ABBY, ROXY, VENUS AND OR LILLIAN EACH
ABBY
I'm Abby and I am waiting for you. I came to FPALR many monthes ago and while others have come and gone I remain. Is it because I don't have enough white on my body ? or because I am just to plain looking for someone ? or is it because I need to be an only dog ? Not my fault and I am sorry that my former owners didn't take care of me. I didn't ask to be born or to be owned by someone that didn't let me be around other dogs. They also didn't take the time to get me Heartworm Preventative so I came to FPALR Heartworm positive. But I am healthy now and looking for that special person to love me for who I am , just Abby who loves to play, loves to be in her crate but really would love someome to call her own and hug her every night
Roxy is proud of herself no matter what others think. She is a loves her walks but needs a strong hand at the end of that leash. She does love kids but should be around those that are of the teenage years since in her playful ways she will knock down the smaller ones, and not intentionally. Other dogs that are not alpha will be fine with her as she likes to make sure she is in charge and there is nothing wrong with that. Don't we all like to be in "charge". She is housebroken,some obedience and crate trained gal here
Paco has been spending sometime in a foster home remembering days when he had a home to call his own. He is housebroken, gets along with cats and knows basic obedience. He still likes the couch potato status but with a family to call his own would love to take those walks with you on a cool summer night
CHECK IT OUT FPALR FANS I YES ME PACO HAS AN ADOPTION PENDING........YIPPEE

Every week there are at least a 100 dogs being euthanized because the shelters are full. These dogs have done nothing wrong except being in the wrong place at the work time.. Can you help us rescue a few more by providing a foster home for them on a temporary basis ? Fox Lake Village has limited us to the number of dogs that we are able to house at the shelter so we turn down dogs every week. Pleasee-mail us at info@fortunatelabrescue.org or call 773 318 2239

WHO WILL BE THE NEXT FPALR SUCCESS STORY FEATURED ON THE FRONT PAGE ?
MEADOW IS THIS MONTH'S SUCCESS STORY
We adopted Meadow on July 17, 2010. From the minute she walked through the door, she was instantly part of the family. We could not have asked for a more loving dog. Although she weighs about 50 pounds, Meadow thinks she's a lap dog. Her favorite thing to do is cuddle up on the couch with me, which has also turned into my favorite thing to do! Whenever we take her for walks or to her favorite store (Petsmart) everyone that meets her says the same thing- "What a happy dog!" Words cannot describe how lucky we feel to have found her and have her as part of our family. We are so grateful to FPALR for taking care of Meadow and giving us the opportunity to adopt such a special dog.
