Cheetos? Out! Reese Puff? In!

Congratulations to this darling brindle beauty and her new dad Jae, Army National Guard! The pair were adopted through @fultonanimalservices - one of a trio of Atlanta-area @lifelineanimal shelters in our program, all of which waive adoption fees for veterans we serve. Woot!

We love making military families complete with the love of an adopted pet!

Meet Beulah - formerly Snoopy - and her new Navy family. The 4+ year-old hound with impossibly long ears was in the care of our partners @ri_spca when Kenneth decided to add her to his pack.

Thanks to Rhode Island SPCA, veterans in our program receive $75 off dog adoptions and $50 off cat adoptions - in addition to all of the program benefits we offer as well.

Wishing everyone calm seas and smooth sailing!

Tomoka, Umami, Sky and Star, Kielbasa, Reese's Pie

Tomoka, Umami, Sky and Star, Kielbasa, Reese's Pieces, Arthur, Pierogi, Corn, Juju, Tallahassee - just some of the amazing dogs and cats in our Forget Me Not campaign waiting for their heroes.

All have been in their respective shelters for longer than they deserve, overlooked by would-be adopters.

FMN pets are available to ANY qualified adopter - not just Pets for Patriots veterans - so please share their need far and wide. Because a shelter is not a home, and the longer these precious creatures spend in shelters reduces their chances of adoption even further.

Let's show these wonderful animals that their lives matter!

Elizabeth is a Navy veteran and widow who needed relief from depression. It would be a rescue dog in need of healing, as well, who came to her aid.

Pupdate from Pinini!!

Almost 2 years ago this now 5 year-old precious pibble hit the adoption jackpot. James was honorably separated from the Army and in need of a 4-legged battle buddy.

Mission accomplished! Thanks to the Fulton County campus of @lifelineanimal Pinini's adoption fee was waived - leaving more coin for James to spoil his BFF. This dynamic duo are now livin' large in the great state of Texas.

Thank you for your service, Keisha, and for being a hero to a pet in need!

Keisha serves in the Army National Guard and just added two year-old Toby to her pack. Thanks to our partners @bmorehumane Toby's adoption fee was waived, and this big pup's 'welcome home' gift card and year of post-adoption follow up are generously sponsored by a grant we received from @veteransunitedfoundation ...woot!!

On Memorial Day we reflect upon the men and women

On Memorial Day we reflect upon the men and women who died while serving in the United States armed forces - and give gratitude and comfort to our Gold Star families whose loved ones made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation.

The holiday is not about the sales, the barbecues, the day off from work. But that our lives as we know them were made possible in large part by brave souls who died in service, please pause from whatever you are doing today to remember that freedom is not free - and while all veterans give some, some have given all.
