IJMC - Save the Dog!
Well, this one kinda touched me, so here it is for your perusal. And
hopefully, Andy will fix the broken links, as I'm curious to see the dog
in questions. Do with this as you will, it's your call. -dave
Dave-
I'm a member of the IJMC, and when this idea hit me that maybe it could be
just that easy to save my dog, I had to send this to you as well as my
friends. Maybe someone out there wants to help, and you can get out of
having to write much for the day's message!
Thanks,

Subject: Hello everybody...
Hello, everybody!
I finally found a way to raise the much needed money for my dog's (Josie)
surgery! If all goes well, it won't take long to raise the money and the
operation could be done before she's in any serious pain.
For those of you who are friends of my friends and don't know me
personally, I'm a junior in Elementary Education at Kansas State
University, and I have an Akita that needs your help. She inherited
severe hip displaysia and needs a $1200.00 operation to remove the femoral
heads that fit into the "socket" of the
hip. This procedure seems to work pretty well, with a success rate in the
high 90's.
The good news is: I already have $100.00 in a savings account
set up for her and lots of great friends. Here's the plan:
1. Send $1, or more if you can, to:
Sunflower Bank
(Andy Hanson- the Josie Fund)
2710 Anderson Avenue
Manhattan, KS. 66502
2. Send this e-mail to at least two friends that you know as well as I
know you. That way, everyone knows that this is a legitimate cause.
(Everyone on the origonal list has met Josie.)
Thank you for all your help!
P.S. I have a website with additional information about Josie, pictures
of the dog you are helping, links to information about hip displaysia, a
counter updated weekly for how much we need to go to reach the goal, and a
place to send me questions or comments directly. Thanks again!
