How San Diego is Fighting the Problem of Economic Euthanasia. PLUS: Meet Bailey, a Senior Gal Looking for a Home of her Own

Angela Marcus on Pet Life Radio

Angela Marcus interviews Danae Davis, executive director of FACE Foundation, whose mission is to enhance and preserve the quality of life of animals by providing access to necessary, lifesaving medical care.  Angela defines “economic euthanasia” and Danae explains how FACE’s program works to put an end to it in their community. The lifesaving funding that FACE provides is only one part of the process – their success is also dependent on the veterinary and community partners they have. Danae also shares two heartwarming, incredible success stories that will bring a smile to your “face.”

We also learn about Bailey, a 12-year-old mixed-breed dog looking for a loving home in which she can spend her golden years.  At about 50 pounds, Bailey is playful and completely housetrained.  She LOVEs people and would do best as the only pet in the home.  Bailey is spending her days at the Lifetime Animal Care Center, partners of FACE, in sunny San Diego, CA. The team there loves her so much and will ensure that she’s ready to go with up-to-date bloodwork, a dental cleaning, and a bath!  She’ll also go to her new home with food, toys, shampoo and other goodies!  If you are interested in bringing Bailey home, email Angela at angela@petliferadio.com.

FACE’s annual holiday fundraising drive is throughout the month of December. Any donation received during December will be doubled by FACE’s Board President up to $100,000! These donations will go towards life-saving veterinary treatment for more pets in the future.
