Carson Animal Services Initiative says 'thank you' another wonderful Bark, Whine and Dine
Carson Animal Services Initiative (CASI) would like to thank everyone who attended or contributed to our annual Bark Whine & Dine, held on April 27. What a wonderful event it was!
CASI was established to help build a new animal shelter in Carson City and since that time CASI has continued its positive, lifesaving outreach. From major donations including an ACO vehicle and fencing and equipping the shelter play yard, to assisting with emergency medical expenses, CASI has been a committed community partner for over 12 years.
To date, CASI has provided spay/neuter access for over 1100 pets through CASI Critter Fixer voucher program. Critter Fixer allows low-income pet owners access to this important service, directly reducing the numbers of animals surrendered to our shelters.
Thank you to the following businesses and individuals who helped make our Bark Whine & Dine a huge success. Because of you, we are able to help even more animals in need.
