Buzzing flies, packed dirt, and the sound of other desperately barking dogs used to be the only elements that made up Chester’s daily life. The heavy chain around his neck kept him confined to a small, shabby doghouse and left no room for escape. Surrounded by other dogs existing in the same awful conditions, Chester grew up in a place where safety and happiness did not exist.
When he was finally rescued, we realized Chester was not going to be a typical case. Covered in fly bites and shaking in fear, it was obvious that this terrified pup was going to need as much time, patience and compassion as we could offer.
Luckily for Chester, your support allows us to continue to provide second chances without time limits. With your help, Lenawee Humane Society has become a safe haven for dogs and cats who may need extra time, rehabilitation or medical care. Because of you, there is hope for innocent souls like Chester who have never known love.
For most dogs, being separated from their families and relocated to an animal shelter for months could be devastating. Chester, on the other hand, had nothing to give up but baggage and traumatic memories. Under the guidance of shelter staff and with the dedication of incredible supporters like you, Chester is finally learning that there is more to life than fear and a heavy chain.
As we enter the Season of Giving, you have the power to provide the best gift of all: the gift of life. Not only will you be giving Chester the second chance he needs, you’ll be helping other homeless pets like him and changing the lives of humans who love them. Together, we can do our part to make the world a better place, one life at a time.
Thank you for your incredible support,
Your friends at Lenawee Humane Society
