Who Says There’s No Luck in Baseball?

Join Lucky Dog Animal Rescue as we watch the Nationals beat the Phillies at the final home game of the season!

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue is an all volunteer 501(c)(3) dedicated to saving the lives of homelss and abandoned animals. We rescue dogs from severely under-resourced and over-crowded shelters in the rural South – shelters in which these dogs will certainly die – and bring them to the DC metro area to find loving forever homes. We rely on the support of caring animal-lovers like you to help cover transportation, veterinary, and boarding costs that often greatly exceed our adoption fees. With your help, we can give more dogs the lucky break they deserve.

For every ticket sold though through this web page, that Nationals will donate $8 to Lucky Dog Animal Rescue! Just think….

For every 2 tickets sold, a very Lucky Dog can get out of a cold dark shelter.

For every 4 tickets sold, that same Lucky Dog can get a ride all the way to DC.

For every 8 tickets sold, a Lucky Dog can receive routine vaccinations.

For every 12 tickets sold, a Lucky Dog can be spayed or neutered.

But your tickets today! www.nationals.com/luckydog

Can’t attend the game but want to help? Donate online at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org/donate/donate-online

The Puppy Class that starts on Saturday, 7/10 at 10am. ALL puppies (especially LDAR puppies) 6 months and younger are welcome! This is a semi-private class that runs for 7 weeks.

We also review puppy behaviors that include: house/crate training, puppy chewing/biting and jumping up. The class is taught at Wagtime located at 1232 9th St. NW Washington, DC 20001.
