A very nice person at hospital stood up for me and took me. She called NJ Aid for Animals and they got me. I had a urinary tract infection and an ear infection too. I was a mess.

Now look at me!!!! I am with my foster family. My dad is just like me!!! He is a diabetic human and mom is a nurse so she knows what’s good for me. I have two brothers too called jack and russell. Or at least that is what I think I heard!!!

Oh boy, I love my new toys and my new house. I was in a cage ALL THE TIME and they let me run free free free!! I hope John and Nadine adopt me forever~!!!!

Please help us with our medical fund. If NJAFA had not stepped in, this little girl would have been euthanized. This disease is highly contagious and other dogs would contract it at shelter. Read about this deadly disease.

May 2012

GLOUCESTER COUNTY – Got plans for the third Friday night in May?

If you make your usual “pit stop” at a favorite bar or restaurant for a well-deserved, end-of-the-week refreshment, why not be a little adventurous on Friday, May 18, and drop by The Landmark Inn’s Private Night Club for an exciting evening of casino gaming, cigar rolling, hot cars, biker beauties and yes dancing girls!

Gentlemen, start your engines – and bring your ladies — to “The Pit Stop,” for a racy evening of placing your bets and lusty libations to benefit NJ Aid for Animals’ ambitious pit bull rescue programs! NJAFA President Kathy McGuire proudly asserts this is one of the non-profit’s most ambitious fund-raisers in eight years since its founding.

NJ Aid for Animals, Inc. is an all volunteer humane charity focusing on abused and abandoned animals which includes a high volume of pit bulls that they help each year.  Focusing on helping to get the pits spayed and neutered as well as coming to their aid when taken from an abusive situation, NJAFA are dauntless leaders in the S. Jersey area against pit bull abuse.

The private club at  the Landmark Inn will be transformed into “The Pit Stop”,  a private, adults-only casino — complete with all the sexy and seductive temptations for every brand of gambler: from conservative bettors to the daring double-downers to the high-rolling ‘whales,’” McGuire excitedly reports.

“This is definitely a men’s event complete with corseted professional models selling raffle tickets, scantily clad biker beauties making the rounds and plenty of food and drink to fuel that gambling spirit! We’re counting on a fabulous turnout of men and their ladies who want to immerse themselves in a no-holds-barred evening of craps, roulette, blackjack, Texas Hold ‘em, $1 Miller Lights, tasty finger foods, $3 Three Olive drinks, sexy pole dancers, top-line race cars and motorcycles and lots and lots of gambling. We’re hoping ‘The Pit Stop’ ends up being our most successful, high dollar fund-raiser. We need all the operating capital we can raise to continue our mission of rescuing pit bulls and paying for our billboard that promote spay and neuter for pit bulls in low-income areas that are most at risk for abuse.”

Dazzling, jaw-dropping race cars will be on display outdoors at the Landmark Inn entrance while, just steps inside the venue, guests will want to leisurely check out the impressive collection of shiny, tricked out motorcycles, compliments of Pit Motors, Ltd.

Elaina Marin, General Manager of PIT Motors, Ltd, one of the event’s biggest sponsors says, “When NJ Aid for Animals approached us to be part of this event, it was a perfect fit. Pit Motors with their mission statement ‘working from a foundation of ethics and reliability’, our mascot, the burly, strong and misunderstood American Staffordshire terrier, and our company name an acronym for Parallel Intelligent Transportation, how could we resist.”

Marin quips further, “It all fits…My ten year old pittie is a wonderful dog with a great personality and I would never own another breed.  I know what wonderful companions they are.   Pit Motors Ltd is a proud sponsor and hopes to raise lots of money for NJ Aid for Animals and all they do for pit bulls.

This high-performance event in an adult playground will feature “The Lucky Ladies,” lovely all-female card dealers, along with celebrity guests Dwayne “Big Daddy” Gutridge and Alex Vrettos of professional drag racing fame.

Letter from Smarty’s Owner;

I would like to tell you about my dog, Smarty, and his new lease on life.  Two days before Christmas last year he became paralyzed in his back legs.  Previous to this he was a normal dog that we walked everyday as a family.  As we were waiting for a hopeful recovery it never came.  We found out in February that he would never walk with his back legs again.  It was a hard decision for my family and I to make but he was so full of life that we had to find a way not to put him down.

Kelly, a volunteer from NJ Aid for Animals,  heard of our problem. She explained how NJ Aid for Animals has helped hundreds of animals through life saving shots they donate and have helped people try to save their animals.

NJ Aid for Animals said they would use a Chip In to raise money and told us they would be able to get Smarty a wheelchair and a dragbag so that he could get somewhat of a normal life back.  Kelly set up the Facebook page for Smarty and they had his money raised within two days.  A couple weeks later Smarty got his wheel chair and my family and I have been walking with him daily to get him accustom to it and get him out of the cage and walking around.  He has been adapting and doing well.

If it was not for the help of Kelly and NJ Aid for Animals, our dog would have been put down. They truly have made the difference between life and death for him.  Hopefully he will adapt and live out the rest of his years in health.

Today was a bright day for me. Since December I haven’t been able to walk without the help of my owners. With the fundraising efforts of NJ Aid for Animals this all changed today. I was fitted into my K9 Cart by Dr Balsama at Delaware Valley Animal Hospital today and right away I was off and running down the hall. Dr. Balsama was amazed at not only the ease of use of the cart, but my willingness to walk right away.

With my new wheels and ease of “walking” I was just as happy as ever wanting to greet all the other dogs and trying to drag myself all around the office. Even when I had to stand while adjustments were being made to my cart I was a good boy and didn’t cry or whimper or bark. I just stood there waiting to be turned loose. You can see in the video I moved so fast, I was off and running!!! First I ran right over to a pair of Golden Retrievers to say hello and then took I took off like a shot down the hall.

Almost as quickly as I got going, I was tuckered out. Dr. Balsama warned my human that I will need to be kept on a bit of a training regime to get me up to speed (no pun intended!) with my cart. This should take a couple weeks and then I can use it full time. In the mean time let’s not forget I also got a “Protect-A-Pet” bag to scoot around in while I am in training. Dr. Balsama and staff were so impressed with the cart and the construction as well as the “Protect-A-Pet” they asked for the brochures from K9 Cart East.

My owner, Bob, thanks NJ Aid for Animals and said without them none of this would have been possible. He looks forward to taking me and my human brother for a walk very soon. He doesn’t know what people would do with out an organization like this one. He knows I would have suffered greatly without NJ Aid for Animals

Thanks to ALL OUR GENEROUS DONORS who gave me my wheels. We could not have done it without you…..

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE .
