Thank You Reese Bayens

Meet Reese Bayens, Eagle Scout

Years ago, the Bayens family adopted a dog from Shamrock who was Reese’s best friend. He grew up until he was nine, when their dog sadly passed away. Recently, Reese told his parents he wanted to do something that would benefit the Shamrock Pet Foundation for his special project to earn his Eagles Scout Badge. So his mom, Sheri, contacted us. It was an honor to meet this young man and to see someone so young show such passion to help animals. We grew more and more excited when it hit home how passionately Reese wanted to help our animals, and his help could not have come at a better time. Presently, Shamrock has saved 20 liters of cats that are with our fosters. All of the critical cases we have taken on from the community and our fantastic shelter. All of our forever fosters we care for till their time here ends. They had a whole crew come unload everything that was donated. Remember Dixie, who came to us paralyzed in her back legs? Reese himself donated the balance disc that Dixie will need to keep her core muscles strong for the rest of her life. He told his mom he needed to do this for Dixie. Reese, you are going to accomplish great things in your life. We know you will continue to help animal welfare, no matter what path you choose in life. All of Shamrock thanks you for your compassion and for wanting to help. You came into our animals lives when they needed you most. And we are so happy to welcome your entire family to our Shamrock family.
