BBR covers MN & WI but in the shelter challenge you will find us listed under WI. New dogs come to our rescue weekly so like every other rescue we will find a use for any prizes that come our way. There are the basics: spays, neuters, vaccinations, heartworm preventive, but then add in the costly items like dentals, meds for Cushings, Addisons, diabetes insipidus, glaucoma and other surgeries. The monthly vet bill grows quickly when you are caring for 40 plus dogs.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks for your votes and thanks to Chris for listing the link to voting <a href="http://www.shelterchallenge.com/">http://www.shelterchallenge.com/</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Lisa and the MN Woofers<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Basset Buddies Rescue<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>www.bbrescue.org<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
