This week we would like to inform our readers about Leash Animal Rescue. Browsing the web and enjoying the “Before & After Pictures” the recue posted from their work with dogs, we were happy to see dogs being as happy as they are. It takes time and effort to make a stray and/or abused animal to trust humans again, but every try is worth the effort. Notice the difference in the pictures before and after which we extracted from Leash Animal Rescue's website.

Do you think it is worth every penny and try in helping animals? We would say YES, without a doubt - YES.

In the members' of Leash Animal Rescue words, "LEASH Animal Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit animal rescue organization...Our rescue follows a no-kill policy and is operated solely by volunteers with an emphasis on foster homes, until we are able to have physical rescue facility."

Exploring their website, we noticed Leash works not only with dogs and cats, but they help ANY animals in need of help. The pictures at the end of the blog are of the resident horse, Cody, at Leash Animal Rescue. Cody is not for adoption, yet we can still help Cody have a good life as a horse while being blind, by supporting him with our donations as low as $5.00 one time or re-curing.

And don't forget that "All donations go directly towards the animals!"
CODY
We see in the first picture how scared Cody was of the woman approaching him. Cody was born blind and had no human contact for the first 7 weeks of his life; therefore, he was labeled as being a feral horse.
With patience and effort to make Cody human friendly, the staff at Leash Animal Rescue were successful. We quote a touching line from Leash website, "Cody is proof that horses of visual disability can lead extremely happy and healthy lives, can play and have fun, and can love and trust their handlers."

AND LASTLY, BUT NO THE LEAST we thought it would be easier to decide if anyone is able to help Cody and/or any other animal at Leash Animal Rescue by providing the monthly cost of care breakdown for Cody:
