It
makes absolutely no sense to fill up your closet with those old winter
clothes that are really not going to fit you anymore. Nonetheless most
of us keep it just to take a look at it and remember the times when the
clothes had actually fit us. Why not make it useful and donate it to
places where the sweaters will actually be of some help. The Washington
County Animal Shelter has taken up this provision and is helping the
shelter dogs tend to the cold winters.
A pure initiative
Clothes
that are being donated have come of great help and are being used by
the shelter in innovative ways for sure. If you are wondering how that
is being made possible then it is quite easy. The staffs make sure that
it is being provided by the utmost ease.
- Fighting the cold
The
shelter lacks a heater and this makes it difficult for the dogs to take
in the cold. However the donated sweaters are helping a lot and if you
have some at home, then it is time to get those out and provide it to
the ones who really need it. The dogs are let out to play and this is
the one time when the clothes help a lot. Moreover the outdoor cage is
really cold and also lets the chilliness inside when left open. Efforts
of the Washington County Animal Shelter are being appreciated by many.
- The grand sweater
Kissing winters goodbye!
According
to the shelter staff, one big sweater can actually be used to create 3
different dog sweaters. All the dogs are thus provided with the much
needed warmth required during the cold chilly winters and there is no
doubt that it is one of those efforts that are making lives change for
sure.
With
100 dogs waiting for adoption, there is usually a need to keep them
warm and people are coming forward to appreciate the efforts made by the
shelter. If you are wondering what it takes to be a dog in a sweater
then you can simply visit the shelter and take a look at it yourself.
There are several more around the world that needs such help and if you
have clothes to spare then maybe it is time you take the effort and
start donating some clothes for good.
- Fluffy sweaters
The
cute little ones are doing their best here and flaunting your sweaters.
Hence you can take out all the old winter clothes that you are never
going to wear and make good use of them. No matter the size, just donate
the clothes and you might just see your neighbourhood shelter dog
wearing one of your bright red Christmas sweaters and looking absolutely
adorable.
Take
up the initiative and provide something meaningful to an item that is
just taking up the closet space in your home and doing nothing needful
by just hanging in there for years to come.
