This mall is a "dog friendly" mall where you can walk your dog any time, and has proven to be a great place for us to M&G, plenty of room for us to set up inside, and a warm welcome for our wonderful greyhounds. Please have the rescue spirit and come out and give us a hand.
P.S. Santa has sent us a Precision SnooZZy Sleeper 49 x 30! (see link below). Every volunteer who attends on 12/20 and makes a donation into the GFNJ jar, gets to throw their name into the hat to bring home the SnooZZy Sleeper at the end of the M&G! This faux fur cushy mat is perfect to bring to M&G, for a crate, back of the car, or an easy-to-wash extra pad on top of an existing bed. This drawing is a holiday treat for volunteers only, not a raffle!
