Hi Everyone,
Hope your weekend is treating you well! Thank you for everything this week- lots of wonderful contributions to the animal cause this week. I look forward to seeing many of you tonight at the screening training.
I can’t send this email without telling you about the wonderful class we just taught today in Richmond atCésar Chávez Elementary to a group of 6th graders. Students had chosen the topic themselves, so this was the first week of a unit on pit bulls. Rollie was happy to oblige (pictured)! Humane education is such an awesome way to talk about all kinds of things and really get out the message of kindness, compassion and respect. It’s wonderful to watch the wheels turn as they see appropriate treatment of animals and discuss real-world scenarios.
Next, we’ve got some dogs who really could use out of boarding. If you’ve got a warm spot in your house, even for a little bit and are mostly animal-free,Janie, Corky and Kevin all really need fosters. These are all great dogs but can’t show that or get adopted from boarding, so we’d really like to get them to fosters like yesterday. Fish owners or pet-fix needers, this is your moment to shine! (Janie may be able to chill with a cat, not sure about Corky or Kevin.)
I’ve updated the blog again with lots of opportunities. We’re still looking for a driver for this Saturday to the mobile adoption event at PetCo Unleashed on Lakeshore- 12:15ish-1 and 4:00-4:30.
And if you’re hungry the next day or two (and who doesn’t get hungry in the next day or two?), check out Pasta Pomodoro who is generously donating a portion of proceeds at a few locations March 5thand 6th. Info here.
Thanks again, everyone, and be well!
