Dr. O’Connell Makes Holiday Pledge For Homeless Pets Print E-mail

DOVER, NH - February 21, 2008 - Dr. Michael O’Connell of PainCare Centers renewed his support for homeless animals and the work of Cocheco Valley Humane Society during the 2007-08 holiday season.

Dr. O’Connell, whose pain management practice is located at Pinewood Medical Center on Route 108 in Somersworth, has pledged up to $10,000 for the last five years to match holiday donations of $100 or more made to the humane society. This year he increased his commitment to $30,000.  Through this challenge, PainCare helped the humane society reach more donors and raise more money.

"I am committed to Cocheco Valley Humane Society because it is an important community resource," said Dr. O’Connell. "Without them, there would be no safe place for surrendered, unwanted, and abused animals—and they need the community’s support to fund their programs and services."

Cocheco Valley Humane Society relies on financial contributions to provide shelter, food, medical care and the hope of a new "forever" home for an estimated 2,500 animals each year. They also offer resources and programs to help pet owners keep pets in their homes and out of the shelter.  To learn more about CVHS' community programs and services, please visit www.cvhsonline.org or call (603) 749-5322.
