Donate A Kuranda Bed

Just imagine lying on a cold, hard, concrete floor 24 hours a day. Add the stress of an unfamiliar place with sights and sounds feeling nothing like home, and you can understand the stress a dog feels in an animal shelter.

Your donation of a comfortable raised bed will provide a soft and dry place for a dog to have a good night's sleep.

Beds are offered at special discount, come with a 1 year warranty and are sent directly to the shelter in your name.

Please click the link and donate a bed so another of our dogs can have a soft place to relax.

A shelter dog will be grateful!
