We are excited to announce Peace of Mind Dog Rescue (POMDR) as our new Policy Grant recipient! Their mission is to find loving foster and forever homes for senior dogs. They help dogs and people from Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Benito counties in California. They strive to bring positive change to the way society thinks about and treats senior dogs. They do this through rescue, foster, adoption, hospice, and education. They have a lifetime commitment to all the dogs who come into their care.
We love that POMDR adopted a vegetarian menu policy and published the policy on its website. Their policy states, “We believe that all animals should be treated humanely and with compassion throughout their lives. One way POMDR chooses to support the concept of compassion to all living beings is to serve only vegetarian food at all POMDR events, from small meetings of staff and volunteers, to large gatherings such as our annual Lucky Dog Gala. We recommend the same but do not control food options when outside organizations are the primary host or sponsor of an event.”
We are happy to award them the Policy Grant! We really appreciate their dedication to helping senior dogs. Thank you for extending your compassion to all animals!
