No animal should be left behind due to lack of funding.
We're on a mission to ensure animal welfare organizations in our community can say yes to every dog and cat who needs help.

HOWL-O-WEEN was Paw-some!
Franklin's Friends 11th annual HOWL-O-WEEN Dog Walk-a-Thon and Canine Costume Contest was on October 26 - and it was pup-tastic and spook-tacular!
Even though the stage and bleachers were flooded by Hurricane Milton, we had a great crowd, beautiful weather, amazing vendors, sought after raffle items, and lots of dogs in costumes! WMMO's Denise Ryan and her pup Rusty returned to emcee and we raised over $42,500 for local animal welfare!
