BISSELL Pet Foundation's Animal Incident Management is mobilizing to provide essential support in response to Tropical Storm Debby. Debby made landfall in Florida as a Category 1 hurricane with sustained winds of 80 mph and is now threatening to bring historic rainfall and flooding from storm surge to parts of Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina over the next several days. At the request of the State of Georgia, AIM, in collaboration with ASAR Training and Response, is deploying its animal search and rescue team to assist in expected areas of impact. We are also working in South Carolina to assist Charleston Animal Society in leading statewide efforts to transfer pets from smaller shelters at risk of greater damage due to the expectation of dangerous flooding as Debby continues north. We need your help to safely transport and place pets in shelters out of harm’s way. Donate now. 100% of your gift will impact pets in need. They are counting on you!

Happy Dogust 1st! 🎉🐾 Today, we celebrate the universal birthday for shelter dogs! Approximately 3 million dogs enter shelters each year, and we don't always know their birthdate when we adopt. However, that doesn't mean we can't celebrate them! Let's celebrate our beloved shelter dogs by showering them with extra love, treats, and everything in between. If you're considering adding a dog to your family, consider adopting from your local shelter. Every pup deserves a loving home. 🐶❤️ #Dogust #AdoptDontShop #ShelterDogs #DogLovers

When Dobby was surrendered to Bladen County Animal Shelter in Elizabethtown, NC, in early June, it was uncertain whether he would survive. In addition to having a painful skin infection, he was severely underweight, and he needed an urgent blood transfusion. Because his health condition was so critical, the shelter made getting him veterinary care their first priority. As soon as Cathy Bissell saw his picture, she knew BISSELL Pet Foundation could help. Thanks to your generosity, Dobby became a BISSELL Pet Foundation Grateful Pet. Our Grateful Pet program provides funding to offset the cost of surgery, dental work, or treatment for an illness or injury so pets like Dobby can heal and find loving homes. Today, this sweet boy is not only receiving the medical care he needs, he’s also eating nutritious food to gain weight and soaking up tons of love and attention from his foster mom until he is healthy enough to be adopted. Because of you, Dobby is safe, healthy and loved. 💙 ❤️
