It's reported that Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are over but she still has a big love in her life: animals! We've told you before about Selena helping animals by adopting, and now she's passionately asking her fans to help stray and abandoned dogs find homes.
Selena Tweeted:
My good friends at islanddog.org have been struggling to get donations but, are still working everyday to... fb.me/1KbNv02TK
— Selena Gomez (@selenagomez) November 8, 2012
Her longer than average Tweet continues on Facebook, "...help the dogs of Puerto Rico. They found this little guy this morning sleeping in the middle of the road, hopefully they have already found him a good home. Please remember no donation is too small visit www.islanddog.org to help the dogs of Puerto Rico."
She also includes a pic of an incredibly cute white puppy who just makes your heart go out.
The website for Island Dog explains that there are approximately 200,000 dogs in Puerto Rico who need homes. The island is the size of Connecticut and has 72 cities but only 5 small, underfunded shelters. Along with helping to get these pups homes, Island Dog offers medical treatment, spay/neuter services, and education on how to treat animals well.
Besides giving donations, you can also adopt a dog. You don't have to be in Puerto Rico, either, so check it out. Another way you can help is shopping at their online store, and be rest assured that 100% of the money goes to the charity.
Want more cool info on this great org? It may be called Island Dog, but that doesn't mean this org isn't going to help every animal it can! It also has created two cat colonies for homeless cats. No wonder Selena is so enamored with this organization! Think you might be able to help a little and make some dogs' day or even, life?
