- Awesome responses for an animal in need. Meet the little dog that could...Frannie, the chocolate lab that captured the hearts and minds of the staff and volunteers at Sherwood Humane Animal Services. She came in with a bullet lodged in her lower jaw, she tugged on the heart strings of the staff and volunteers, the media gave the cause wings and the people of Sherwood and surrounding communities stepped up to the plate. She's had her surgery, and is recovering well and has an excellent prognosis. Thanks to the dedication of the staff and volunteers of the Sherwood Humane Animal Services, and the community at large as of 11/02/07 a total of $17,000 has been raised to help with her surgery and recovery, and to benefit other animals in need. The amount raised above the $2,000 required for the cost of the specialist surgery will help many, many other animals at the Shelter. Each and every day our Shelter in Sherwood rises to the challenge of caring for the abused, abandoned, and neglected animals that are in our community. And, each and every day they have been able to meet that challenge thanks to the devotion and dedication of the staff and volunteers. The legacy of this one animal, and this one call for help, will continue to last for months to come. So, this little dog is truly the Dog that could. THANK YOU Sherwood and THANK YOU Arkansas! Don't forget the Shelter once this story fades to memory, they need our continued support with donations, volunteer time, pet supplies, medications and aluminum cans.

Thanks for the great update about Frannie. I am the president of the Sherwood Humane Animal Shelter's volunteer arm. Our name is Partners Auxiliary Working for the Sherwood Shelter (P.A.W.S.).
A more recent update. Thought you might like to know the donation amount for the Frannie Fund has exceeded $17,000.00. The staff and volunteers are so in awe of the outpouring of love from folks in Arkansas and out of state to help a dog in need. These donations will save the lives of many, many animals for a long time to come.
It is amazing that this one call for help has resulted in a legacy for many other animals to benefit.
