Now more than ever, you are needed to donate your old blankets, towels, and sheets to your local animal shelter. With financial cut-backs, repairs on shelters are often put off, so if it's drafty, the animals suffer. I know my shelter uses rags to stuff under doors. No kidding! Empty out those closets... this is your chance to get rid of stuff and do something useful!

Hot Springs, AR, April 26, 2010 – Guardian Angels for Soldier's Pet announced today the official site for the establishment of the organization’s first "Military & Veterans Pet" (MVP) Sanctuary. The site consists of 13 acres west of Fort Hood in Gatesville, TX and will be the future home of a pet care facility, the organization’s National Office and room for events to support the troops, their families and their pets. Receiving word that the organization’s offer was accepted by the seller to buy the land marks a major milestone in Phase I of the MVP Sanctuary project.
"This is a big day for the organization and we are asking for everyone's continued support to get the word out,” said Linda Spurlin-Dominik, Founder/CEO of the organization. “We also want to extend an invitation to those who wish to make a donation so we can complete the second half of Phase I.”


According to Ms. Spurlin-Dominik, purchasing the property is a major milestone, but only half of Phase I for the overall project which was announced in February 2007. Donations can be made online at the MVP Sanctuary website via PayPal (www.mvpsanctuary.org) or by check/money order (payable to Guardian Angels for Soldier's Pet; Memo Line: MVP Sanctuary) and mailed to:
