The Lab Rescue was quite a popular station at last weekend's "Bark and Wine" event at the Railyard. The Railyard is located in the space in the parking lot off of Barnhardt Street, between the Spice Cantina and Gibb's Hundred. The Lab Rescue NC, photographed above, is a non-profit organization that rescues and finds home for Labrador retrievers in need. They try to save as many labs as possible. Last time we checked, they had five fabulous dogs in need of a forever home.
This was the fifth year of the "Bark and Wine" event. They had vendors, a silent auction, music, beer, wine, and so much more. It was an event for people of all ages and, all breeds of canines were invited to attend. It was a very pet-friendly event. In all, 23 rescue groups were in attendance. There were plenty of options for helping pets in need.
If you can't adopt, fostering may be a great thing to do this summer. If you can't foster, perhaps you can donate to one of the rescue organizations. It is infinitively rewarding to be involved with these community organizations.
A very good idea!
