Many may not be aware that January is Unchain a Dog Month. Freedom Fences, which is a 501(c)3 organization, invites everyone interested to get involved.
Those not familiar with Freedom Fences, or other groups working to better the lives of dogs living while chained 24/7 may enjoy knowing there are groups fighting to make a difference. Volunteers do the work needed.
The following details are from the Facebook page for Freedom Fences:

More reasons for not chaining a dog are listed on many sites. However, because it is not possible for every owner of a dog to fence an area for their dog, chained dog issues continue to be a concern.
Groups such as Freedom Fences and Coalition to Unchain Dogs exist to help dogs gain freedom from chains. Those interested in volunteering or in making a donation to any group that helps animals escape their chains will find details to do so on the sites linked in this article.
