Super Excited to Share

I am so happy to announce a fun (and worthwhile!) event that my friends at Big Paw Designs and I have cooked up.

Next week, November 1-7, is National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week. Big Paw Designs, Pugsley and I are asking all of YOU to show your local shelter or rescue how much you appreciate them by donating your time, money, support or goods. It can be as simple as donating a bag of dog food, taking them your extra old towels or playing with kittens for an hour. The point is to do something. Many of you do things on a regular basis anyway so tell us about what you do to support them and that certainly counts too.

We all know the wonderful people who work and volunteer at shelters work their tails off day in and day out. We often take them for granted so let’s show them our appreciation!

Our challenge to you is to go do something between now and November 7th and then email us about it. We’ll feature all of your good deeds every day here and on the Big Paw Designs blog and maybe some other places as well (we’ll let you know where; could be exciting!)

And, in addition to featuring you, all submissions will be entered into a drawing for your choice of a Rescue Mom or Rescue Dad car magnet or sticker, courtesy of Big Paw Designs. We’ll choose a new winner every day!

Imagine what we can all do if we each do a little bit. We are so excited to feature all of your wonderful activities. My friend Bailey the Bichon did something similar for her birthday last year – her requested gift was that everyone do something nice for their local shelters. It was a great birthday hit. And very worthwhile.

Go Shelters! Go Rescues, Go YOU!
