WROC FALL GARAGE SALE FOR "WALLY"

Join us Saturday, October 10th for our first annual fall garage sale.

The proceeds from the garage sale are for "WALLY". This tiny 4 year old Westie was found wandering the streets in San Diego. He was in such bad shape that the shelter would only release him to a non-profit 501c3 rescue organization, so they called WROC right away. He has skin issues that we are busy healing and he has also been diagnosed with cataracts in both eyes. We have the good news that the condition is operable, but the surgery will cost about $4,500.

WROC's first annual garage sale was a HUGE SUCCESS!! Our families, friends, supporters, and adopters donated freely and cleaned out their closets and garages as a bonus. We raised over $1000 for Wally. THANK YOU everyone for opening your hearts (and wallets) for this wonderful little Westie. Particular thanks to Roger, Priscilla, Gigi, Marcey, Linda, Jim, Dan, Karen and our breakfast baker who worked so hard at the crack of dawn!
