Events & Donations  

The AAHS organizes three fundraisers each year to provide support for our mission and we gratefully accept monetary donations.

The 2nd Annual Pet Calendar Contest will take place during the 2008 Kiwanis Covington County Fair coming up on Oct. 20-26. Proud pet parents can enter their pet's picture and fair goers can pay to vote for the pet they would like to see in next year's calendar. The deadline to submit a 5x7 photo of your pet is Oct. 14. All entries are $5 and should be submitted to Andalusia Animal Clinic.

One of the most successful fundraisers we organize is the Annual Pet Photos with Santa which is scheduled for Nov. 1, from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. at Jones Veterinary Hospital. Animal lovers are encouraged to bring their favorite pets to have professional photographs taken with Santa Claus. Packages are $15.

The 4th Annual Deep South Doggie Dash & Strut Your Mutt Walk was held on Oct. 4, 2008. The event was very successful with more than $2,000 being raised this year. The AAHS members would like to thank all the corporate sponsors and participants for making this year's event so special. Congratulations to our 2008 Doggie Dash Hero Dalton Spears who raised a whopping $310 to help animals in need. Congrats also go out to the winners of our kids race: Mere-Katherine Riley and Rufus, 1st place; Ferris Dooley and Abby, 2nd place; and Ridge Riley and Tucker, 3rd place. A photo album with pictures from the event will be posted soon.

Monetary donations can be mailed to the AAHS at P.O. Box 1671, Andalusia, AL 36420. Donations can also be made at both Andalusia Veterinary Hospitals and the Andalusia Animal Shelter.
