Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Allow me to introduce myself, I&rsquo;m Pickles and I have recently been appointed as a &lsquo;Fundraising Dog&rsquo; for Medical Detection Dogs, a position of which I&rsquo;m very proud.</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><br></strong></span></p> <p>We dogs know how amazing we are, we provide companionship, love, loyalty and laughter for our families, but Medical Detection Dogs do more than that, they literally <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>save lives.</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><br></strong></span></p> <p>Can it get better than that? Well yes it does. All Medical Detection Dogs are donated to the charity, many of these dogs are rescue dogs, dogs who need a new loving home, a second chance and a purpose in life.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>My goal is to raise &pound;100,000 within a year, so that we can train 10 dogs to become either Medical Alert Dogs or Cancer Detection Dogs.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>How am I going to do this? Well this is where my canine friends come in. I&rsquo;m looking for 5,000 dogs across the UK to donate &pound;20 each... only &pound;5 per paw, hence the campaign <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">&lsquo;Sniff 5000&rsquo;,</span> &lsquo;dogs helping dogs to save lives&rsquo;.</strong></p> <p><strong><br></strong></p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Please donate to help me help <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>&lsquo;dogs save lives&rsquo;.</strong></span></p>
