Remmy Ninja Plush by Shawnimals
Somewhen in early=March, Shawnimal's dog 'Remmy' was attacked by two off-leash dogs that escaped from a yard. "So viciously, in fact, that she almost died from the subsequent infection. Three skin graft surgeries, 20+ bandage changes, and much more, she's finally nearing the end of her recovery. She's still pretty spirited, so far has all four of her legs, and, with a little luck, will be the happy-go-lucky dog she once was when we adopted her 3 years ago from PAWS here in Chicago."

REMMY the Ninja Plush was created out of this! Priced at US$20 per, 25% of each sale will be donated to Logan Square Dog Park. "The rest will go toward creating the plush, of course, as well as to Remmy's care." Available Wednesday May 2nd at 1pm CDT here. Shawn concludes:
"Remmy's vet bills are insanely huge (like $17,000 huge), and friends and strangers alike have donated to a ChipIn created by friends. The community has really stepped up, too, so we want to not only make sure Remmy heals completely, we'd also like to help our local dog park that has yet to be built. Logan Square Dog Park on the northwest side of Chicago needs to raise money to meet the matching grant through the Chicago Park District, and every little bit helps."
