Chako dreams big (land!) and small (leashes and crates) when it comes to alternative donations (i.e., things you want to give us other than cold, hard cash!). The following are a few items from our wish list:

• Blankets
• Medium to Large dog crates
• Leashes and collars, especially european (six way) leashes and martingale collars
• Strong chew toys (Hurley's, Galileo Bones, Black Kongs, Goughnuts, etc.)
• Bully sticks
• Dog food
• Strong kennels (i.e., actual modular kennels to build outdoor runs/kennel space)
• Manual Labor (that's right! If you build it, the dogs will come!)
• Volunteers (lots of them - walking dogs, hosting events, taking on chako positions like web editor, etc.)
• Foster homes (also needs LOTS of these)

Some of our bigger wish list items are

• Land, 1-5 acres for a Pit Bull rescue haven in the Sacramento area
• Van that runs well (for dog transports, etc.)
• Above-ground swimming pool in good condition, rectangularly shaped (for doggie sports)
• Agility equipment in good condition
