SpikeWhere Does the Money Go?
Proceeds from Bark in the Park go directly to aid The Last Chance Fund (TLC) which provides veterinary care for unowned companion animals like Spike, right. Click here to see who else TLC has helped.

At 5-months old, a good Samaritan found Spike injured along the side of the road. He rushed the dog to the Animal Hospital of Willow Street and surrendered him. Apparently hit by a car, Spike had a broken leg which required two pins to fix. A very happy dog, Spike was able to walk on his own the very next day and was adopted into a new home during his recovery time at Willow Street.
