Dinner with the Animals

The Concord-Merrimack County SPCA hosted its 8th annual Dinner with the Animals at the Grappone Center on Friday May 11th. The darling of the evening was Atticus M. Finch, the mini-schnauzer famous for his hiking adventures with human companion Tom Ryan, author of “following atticus.” Joining the party was also William, a 15-year-old mini-schnauzer that Atticus and Tom had adopted just a week before.

Executive Director Heather Faria announced the SPCA has raised over $750,000 in the initial phase of the capital campaign to build a new home. The public phase of the campaign will launch this summer. Doug Sampson, CFO of the Prescription Center, received a standing ovation when he announced a $100,000 gift to name the lobby of the new shelter in memory of his late wife, Jennifer, a devoted dog lover. Later in the evening, the crowd pledged an additional $23,000 towards construction of the maternity and isolation suite of the new shelter. The dinner broke records in raising $79,000 for the animals in one night.

We would like to thank all of you who attended.  A special thanks goes out to Tom Ryan and Atticus! Our appreciation goes to our sponsors for participating in this event (see Dinner page for a list of our supporting individuals and businesses).

Alan Jackson - Domestic Short Hair
4 years-Neutered Male

Yes, that is right Alan Jackson is here!  Not the country star but someone who we believe is just as much a superstar as his namesake.  Alan Jackson donated some of his blood to Capital Area Veterinary Emergency Services so that other feline friends could be saved in case of an emergency.  We are very proud of Alan!
As with any super star Alan enjoys getting ALL the attention and is looking to be the one and only.  If you feel you would like to live with a star and can handle all the pawparrazi, then please come in and meet with Alan's agents.
Lonely Hearts Club
The shelter currently has many homeless animals who have been with us for over 30 days.  These Lonely Hearts are seeking a family who will come and take them home.  To assist with their adoptions we are reducing all adoption fees for our Lonely Hearts residents.  Dog adoptions are to be reduced by $50 and cat adoptions will be reduced by $25.  Please visit the shelter to see who they are or call 603-753-6751.
