You are donating the money needed in order for SPAR to purchase bales of straw to use as animal bedding. We use straw throughout our community to help insulate dog houses for the unfortunate dogs that are made to stay outdoors during frigid temperatures.
We appreciate your kindness during the cold months of winter that prove so difficult for all animals left to fend for themselves, outside.
There are no refunds for donations.
WHY STRAW, NOT HAY?
Straw is preferred over hay for winter bedding for animals for a few reasons. Straw is a better insulator, as it traps air and provides better warmth for the animals. It also tends to be less expensive than hay. Additionally, straw is less likely to mold than hay, which can be harmful to animals if they inhale it. Finally, straw is easier to clean and replace, making it a more practical choice for animal bedding during the winter months.
