Last night, Kris and Mary Lynn from Jordan’s Way were at Pawtastic Friends in Las Vegas, Nevada. You can like them on Facebook at www.facebook.com/PawtasticFriends.
Pawtastic Friends is a private, non-profit organization that provides enrichment training courses for homeless dogs. The training provided by Pawtastic Friends helps dogs from all backgrounds become the best versions of themselves, preparing them for successful adoptions.
Joining us at our fundraising event were Kiss My Paws Rescue and Wagging Tails Rescue, both in the greater Las Vegas area. Both rescues are committed to helping animals in need of rehabilitation as well as rescuing from high-kill shelters. Make sure you like them on Facebook, the links are below.

Mike and Steve really took one for the team by agreeing to take ALL of the pies during the pie face challenge!
The rest of the crew participated in the ice bucket challenge, though! That water looks COLD!
The great thing about rescues that focus on homeless dogs in need of medical care or rehabilitation, is hearing the incredible stories that some of these dogs have. Though, most of the details are heartbreaking and difficult to hear, the perseverance that some of these animals demonstrate is nothing short of inspiring. Having gone through such tragic suffering, they are still so full of LOVE and HOPE!
The sweetheart I’m about to highlight has a name that fits. Her name is Love. She is a 3 legged Pit Bull with a ton of heart. Love was brought into rescue after a good samaritan called to find her some help. She was found abandoned, appearing to have recently had puppies, as well as suffering from blunt force trauma to one of her rear legs. Despite all of that, Love is a sweet, loving girl ready to find her forever home. If you are interested in adopting Love, go to www.kissmypawsrescue.org/meet-the-puppers to learn more.
Another little cutie looking for her forever home is Kenzi, the gorgeous Cattle Dog Mix. Kenzi was found living near a dump but has adjusted well to home life. She is housebroken and a big couch potato who loves dogs and would do best with a companion dog in her new home. If you are interested in giving Kenzi the bright future she deserves, go to www.waggingtailsrescue.org/dog/kenzi/ to learn more about her adoption.
It’s not every day we find a fundraiser participant willing to eat a treat for every $100 raised, but last night at Pawtastic Friends we did! The donations were over $10,000 toward the end of the night, that’s a lot of treats!
A huge thank you to all of the donors and participants who made this fundraiser such a success! The fundraiser remains active for the next week, so please continue donating and sharing!
First thing this morning, Kris and Mary Lynne were back at it with Crazy4Pawz Animal Rescue hosted by the Henderson Animal Shelter in Henderson, Nevada! As Kris has mentioned before in many of the Jordan’s Way live feeds, we like to really spoil the dogs during each fundraiser. Drop it like it's hot is a game played during the bailout wars. Each rescue participant holds a treat in their hand and drops it when the next donation is made. The dogs LOVE this challenge!
If you’ve followed our blog, you know we love it when kids get involved in the fun. Today we had a huge helper named Marley! She was ready to hose everybody down during the mega bailout war, but unfortunately for her they made it out without getting the hose down! Marley also participated in the ice bucket, trick or treat challenge, and at the end of the fundraiser event she and Kris pied each other in the face!
Jack and Jill were a cute duo featured during today’s fundraiser. They are 5 months old and available for adoption separately. If you are interested in adopting Jack or Jill, call (702) 226-0636 to find out more!
A Jordan’s Way Fundraiser event just wouldn’t be complete without an ice bucket and a good tortilla slap challenge!
Dexter is another sweet dog we met today. We learned Dexter is a Cattle Dog Mix who would love his forever home to have a nice yard with a companion dog to run around in it with. If you are interested in adopting Dexter, go to www.Crazy4Pawz.org or call (702) 266-0636 to learn more about his adoption.
Thank you to all of the donors and participants who helped make today’s fundraiser a success. To keep building the support for this wonderful rescue, go to www.facebook.com/donate/6067303293346606 to donate, and SHARE, SHARE, SHARE the link!
