The Good Life Rescue & Pets N Stuff

The Good Life Rescue  &

Pets N Stuff

Last night, Kris and Mary Lynne from Jordan’s Way were at The Good Life Rescue in Grand Island, Nebraska. What a fun group of people. This fundraiser raised $24,000 and counting! Wow! 

The night kicked off with a push-up challenge to get the donation party started!

Kelli and Cassie spent some time kenneled up with Beau and Emerie. We always like to showcase these beautiful animals (the dogs, not the rescue staff) in an effort to help them find their forever homes! If you are interested in either Beau or Emerie, head over to www.thegoodliferescue.com/adoptables to fill out an application.

As many of you who follow Jordan’s Way know, sometimes people do some hilarious things to raise money for their local rescues. Phoenix helped pull in the donations by agreeing to wax his legs, and then upped the ante to his armpits for $500 each in donations! Thanks for working so hard to help The Good Life Rescue, Phoenix!

Terry came in with a very generous $800 donation from the employees at Tom Dinsdale Automotive! Be sure to visit them at www.facebook.com/TomDinsdaleAutomotive/ and give their page a like! 





A Jordan's Way fundraiser just would not be complete without a good slime bucket or pie face challenge. The Good Life Rescue was really bringing in the donations last night. What a supportive community to rally behind them!






The special thing about the Jordan’s Way fundraiser events is of course the animals at the shelter, but it’s also the people who make the shelters run every single day. We love to see the incredible teams of staff and community members come together to support each other and these animals. 


As always, the link remains active for 7 days so make sure you go to www.facebook.com/donate/1013283052984216/ to show your support.

After a 7 hour drive for Kris and Mary Lynne, next up this morning was Pets N Stuff in Mobridge, South Dakota! 


Pets N Stuff was the only stop for today, as Kris and Mary Lynne have another long drive ahead of them tonight. Pets N Stuff is a small shelter with a big heart. Anyone who knows Kris, knows his heart is with the small, rural shelters and rescues. 

Kris and Mary Lynne got to hang out with Monte the Python. As you can see, Mary Lynne might be a little better suited for a reptile companion! 

The tortilla slap challenge was first up to help fire up the donations! 

No two pie face challenges are the same. Some teams just enjoy it more than others. I think Pets N Stuff REALLY enjoyed today’s pie face challenge! 

Mary Lynne got some love from Ace during the bailout wars. Ace is one of the longest residents at this shelter, having been in their care for 1 1/2 years! He is a beautiful boy waiting for his forever home. If you’re interested in adopting Ace, go to www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063759811879 to contact Pets N Stuff for more information on his adoption.





JT was another dog who was very camera friendly. Kris spent some camera time with JT to highlight this sweetheart. If you’re interested in adopting JT, go to www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063759811879 to learn more.







Today at Pets N Stuff, we made HISTORY. We have never seen someone take a taser to bring in donations. The local sheriff deputy sure knows how to take one for the team! Ouch! 

A sincere thank you to all of our donors and participants who helped make this fundraiser a success for Pets N Stuff. We could not do the work that we do, without your support. The fundraiser link remains active for the next 7 days, so please go to www.facebook.com/donate/226556803166746/ to keep supporting this wonderful little shelter! 


On deck tomorrow, we have Bullies-N-Beyond Resq Inc. in Omaha, Nebraska www.facebook.com/BNBResQInc and Sioux Falls Canine Rescue in Brandon, South Dakota www.facebook.com/sfcaninerescue. Be sure to like their pages, tune in live and check out the blog tomorrow to catch up on what fun you may have missed!
