According to New Leash on Life, Maggie the mange-ridden dog has made a considerable improvement. Check her progress here!

Here's an excerpt from this week's update:

She continues to have one of the sweetest personalities we've ever seen. We're covered in Maggie kisses every time we see her. A number of kind people have made donations and come up to see her, and she delights in meeting new people.

Maggie's recovery will still be a long one with months or possibly years of medication required. Although we have raised some funds, more is needed! This year has been especially hard on New Leash On Life, but our hearts go out to dogs like Maggie, and we want to continue our life saving efforts.

There are some ways that you can help. One is by donating whatever you can here! In the drop down menu for Occasion/Reason, just choose "Maggie Fund." But even if you don't choose that, the money will go to a great cause.

Another way that you can help the organization is by walking your dog (or just walking with the dogs) at New Leash On Life's annual Nuts for Mutts: The Walk. Even if you don't have a dog, you can participate by walking. Registration is free but you can gather donations for the Walk for Paws program ($150 or more). Click here for more information.
