Quality Title Fundraises for the Humane Society’s Wagner Shelter Animals

Concurrently to the Town of Front Royal Open House from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday, June 22, up Chester Street northbound several blocks, was the Quality Title-sponsored fundraiser for the Humane Society of Warren County (HSWC). This free entry event with games for the kids sought pet food, supplies, or cash donations in exchange for a meal hinted at in the slogan “Hot Dogs & Dogs.” All donations supported the animals housed at the HSWC’s Julia Wagner Animal Shelter, this community’s contracted public shelter for stray, abandoned, or abused animals.

Donations, be they cash or pet food and supplies, were swapped by attendees for not only a hot dog but chips, a drink, and ice cream. We’re sure the ice cream was appreciated in the heat and may have led to additional donations for that second helping of beat-the-heat ice cream. — I believe we heard some Ruff-Ruffs and Purrrrrs of appreciation echoing across town from the Wagner Shelter animals.

Thanks, Quality Title, for supporting the Humane Society of Warren County and its Wagner Shelter animals searching for quality Forever Homes. And remember, not only to protect you and your family in the extreme heat, but your pets as well.

The HSWC tent keeps these animal lovers in the shade. But for the adventuresome kids, the games were still in the sunlight.
