Dollars for Daffy Fundraiser

The Barkers Dozen Launches "Dollars for Daffy" Fundraiser

Portion of profits from the sale of company’s organic pet treats will help a loyal fan get the medical care she needs. April 3, 2012 – CHICOPEE, Mass. – The Barkers Dozen launched the "Dollars for Daffy" fundraiser today, where the organic dog treat baker will donate a portion of the profits from the sale of its products to Daffy Trinka, a 6-year-old Toy Fox/Jack Russell Terrier and loyal fan of the company, who is in need of medical care for an unknown illness.

During the fundraiser, which will run through April 2012, The Barkers Dozen will donate 50% of the profits from the sale of its treats purchased on its online store – shop.thebarkersdozen.com – to Daffy and her owner, Ingrid Trinka. Plus, when customers use the promo code "DAFFY" at checkout, they will receive a special thank you gift from The Barkers Dozen.

"I was just so thrilled to see Daffy chosen as a ‘Barkers Buddy’, the rest took my breath away," said Ingrid. "I am overwhelmed to think that complete strangers would extend such an incredible offer to us. We are so very thankful. We never, in our dreams, expected this."

Daffy, an avid fan of The Barkers Dozen’s Gluten-Free Blueberry Bone-anza Organic Dog Treats, was rescued two years ago by her owner, Ingrid Trinka, in what she calls a twist of divine intervention.
Ingrid, who had been praying for years for the right dog to enter her life after her beloved Dachshund BetsyRoss passed away, didn’t adopt Daffy the first time she met the dog because the pup didn’t seem like a good match. The dog appeared to have been abused by previous owners, was in poor health and was found homeless. Eight months later, when Ingrid and the same dog crossed paths again, she realized a greater power had chosen Daffy for her.
Daffy’s whole story can be read on The Barkers Dozen’s blog, The Daily Barker.

While Daffy now has a forever home and has blossomed into a well-mannered dog, she is suffering from what appears to be a neurological disorder that causes violent jerking and tremors when she sleeps. Ingrid and Daffy live in a town without the facilities or equipment to diagnose and treat her, and will need to travel more than 250 miles to Manhattan, Kan., to the Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine, to have bloodwork and an MRI taken. Ingrid, who is disabled, can’t currently afford the treatment or the travel and lodging costs, which are estimated to total around $2,000.

"When we learned of Daffy’s story, we felt compelled to offer our assistance so that Daffy could get the care she deserves," said President/CEO and Founder of The Barkers Dozen, Shawn Sherry. "This dog has been through more than most, and her second chance at life should be as healthy and happy as possible."
