Incredibly Generous Thunder Shirt Donation!

Wow, Jodi Lasky called the Thunder Shirt Manufacturer around 9 AM today to ask about a possible donation. She was directed to apply online. Within 3 hours, she received a response offering 50 thundershirts for the puppy mill dogs' trip to freedom (and possible continuous needs as they adjust to their new environment). I just can't believe how generous this is.

More information can be found on their website:
