			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Her smile says it all! Dolly is silly and sweet and loves to play with people and other dogs.  She has lots of energy but still enjoys quiet cuddle time. This young female pit bull is about a year old and ready to start life in her forever home. She would do very well in a home that is active and enjoys playing as much as she does. If you are looking for a great companion for you or your family, ask us about Dolly. <a href="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/dolly-A584432.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-645" title="dolly " src="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/dolly-A584432-300x235.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="235" data-id="645" /></a></p>

<p>Would you give $10 a month to help save a life?</p>
<p><a href="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Riley-1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-527" title="pit bull in shelter" src="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Riley-1-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a> The more people who stand by us, the stronger we become, the more resources we have and the more lives we can save.  When we rescue a dog, the costs involved are considerable: food, vet care, toys, treats, and sometimes boarding and/or training when we are out of space at the sanctuary or a dog needs extra help. Our resources are constantly stretched to their limit. Please lend your support as a monthly donor and help us save more lives. Knowing that we can count on your contribution monthly gives us some security, it lets us know that the funds will be there to save one more life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Peaches-2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-568" title="SAMSUNG" src="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Peaches-2-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" data-id="568" /></a>Peaches is an adorable, affectionate, and smart young puppy that is ready for her forever home. Peaches is about 8 months old, loves kids and does well with other dogs. She likes to chase cats (like a puppy) but still stop in her tracks if you simple tell her firmly. She is a petite girl (maybe 40lbs) and is just a doll. She attaches quickly to people and though she is in a wonderful foster home she would really like to have a home of her own.</p>
<p>Email us at info@shadowsfund.org to inquire about Peaches.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>November is Adopt a Senior Month and we have some wonderful grey muzzled friends waiting for their forever home. <a href="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/skylar-cropped.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-564" title="skylar cropped" src="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/skylar-cropped-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" data-id="564" /></a><strong>Skylar</strong> is an 8 yr old chow mix  that was left alone in the world when her young owner passed unexpectedly. She is in great health for her age and still enjoys walks and playtime. She does not enjoy the company of other dogs. She would love to find another family to call her own where she can enjoy her golden years in the safety and comfort of a home.</p>
<p><strong>Major</strong> is a lab/border collie/pit bull mix that was abandoned at the shelter. This poor old gentleman had such a severe ear infection that he had to have major ear surgery to repair it. With his age and medical condition, no one was going to adopt Major so this sweet old guy just sat in the shelter day in and day out. He is safe in our care now, but has been in boarding at a vet hospital for 2 months. He really needs a home <a href="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/major8.png"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-565" title="major8" src="http://shadowsfund.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/major8-150x150.png" alt="" width="150" height="150" data-id="565" /></a>to settle into, enjoy a warm and cozy bed and the soft pets of someone who will love him despite his age or his flawed ears.</p>
<p><strong>Why adopt a senior?</strong> Senior dogs make wonderful companions. They are mature and wise, calm and settled and in general do not need a whole lot of exercise to meet their needs. Maybe a short stroll, followed by a long nap, and just being able to lie on a soft bed and dream the day away is all that most seniors need in a day. They are excellent teachers for younger dogs and puppies and won&#8217;t chew up your shoes. Most of all, these old grey beards are so loving and special that you just can&#8217;t help but fall in love. They are precious in their quiet way of going about their day and eager to show their appreciation.</p>
<p>Please consider adopting a senior dog. Contact us to learn more about these or other senior dogs that need a home. info@shadowsfund.org.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Meet Bernard. The only thing he&#8217;s fighting is cancer . . . You can help him win his battle and pick up a delicious California red wine for your holiday entertaining. <a href="http://www.carivintas.com/Bernard_p_43.html" target="_blank">&#8220;Bernard Red&#8221;</a> is a limited release by Carivintas Winery to help us raise funds for Bernard&#8217;s surgery.</p>
<p>For 7 years Bernard lived the life of a street dog as a companion to a homeless person. And his outward appearance looks like it. He&#8217;s a little rough around the edges, looks like he&#8217;s been around the block more than once and surely has many a tale to tell. His story almost ended when his companion went to rehab and he went to the pound. Fortunately his longtime friend reached out to Shadow&#8217;s Fund to alert us that Bernard needed help. We got him out of the pound and he is now being fostered by a loving family. And don&#8217;t let his rough looking exterior fool you. This old guy is a big softie and his favorite moments are when he&#8217;s snuggling with the kids on the couch. Sadly, after years on the street without sun protection, Bernard is now fighting skin cancer. That&#8217;s one fight that we approve of and we&#8217;ll be in his corner until the end.</p>
<p>Not a wine drinker? Please consider making a contribution to Bernard&#8217;s medical fund:</p>
