Your Purchases Through iHeartDogs Are Making A Difference

| Published on May 26, 2017

Part of each sale through the iHeartDogs store is donated to Greater Good, which helps support various charities. Thanks to customers like you, happy endings, like the one below, are made possible.

GreaterGood.org partner, Pets for Patriots, helps military veterans adopt a new pet friend while giving the most overlooked shelter animals hope and a home. The project goal is simple: to fund as many veteran-pet adoptions across the country as possible, saving the lives of both person and pet.

David is a Navy veteran who, in 2012, came to a Pets for Patriots rescue partner and adopted a then eight-year-old hurricane refugee with cancer. He and his wife treasured little Jazzy and loved her until she finally succumbed to her illness in 2016. After a period of mourning, David and his wife returned to the Pets for Patriots rescue partner where they first met Jazzy. To their surprise, a nearly identical looking dog named Abby—who had been Jazzy’s shelter mate four years earlier—had just been surrendered by the family who adopted her years prior.

David felt that this was a message from Jazzy that he should adopt Abby. In February, David did just that, and now seven-year-old Abby will have a loving home for the rest of her life.
