In Partner With LaFontaine Automotive Group


Locally owned family dealership, LaFontaine Automotive Group, announced earlier this week that it will be partnering with Toyota’s 100 Cars For Good Campaign to
donate a 2012 Toyota Tundra 4x4 truck to C.H.A.I.N.E.D. Inc.


C.H.A.I.N.E.D. Inc., which stands for Continuing Helping Animals In Need & Educating Dog owners, is a 501c3 that strives to enrich the lives of dogs chained 24/7 by providing life-enhancing supplies such as food, shelter, toys and fences. They also supply services like getting dogs spayed or neutered, and most importantly owner education.


This non-profit corporation, which is directed by three dog-loving women in the healthcare community, strives to mend or replace fences for every dog in the program. Gina, the founder, once said “Every dog that is set free from a life on a chain immediately changes in behavior. Miserable, sad and aggressive dogs quickly become filled with life and most of all hope”. 


LaFontaine Automotive group is hosting a “Stuff the Truck” and Reveille event on November 17th from 11:00pm until 2:00pm, where LaFontaine Automotive Group and Toyota Representatives will present the truck to C.H.A.I.N.E.D. Inc. This event will provide dog owners/lovers an avenue to support local organizations such as C.H.A.I.N.E.D. Inc. and build awareness in the community. Refreshments will be provided. The LaFontaine Toyota dealership is located at 2027 S. Telegraph Rd. in Dearborn Michigan.


Our hope with this event is to get dog lovers to the dealership to stuff this truck with dog food, pet supplies, toys etc. so that we can not only give C.H.A.I.N.E.D.
Inc. a beautiful new Toyota truck but also a great head start on their mission to free dogs from the chain- one dog at a time.
