Here’s What’s Happening…

Happy Friday all! I have not been around much this week as some of you may have noticed. That does not mean I have abandoned you, I have been busy working on a couple of fund raising projects, networking with some very wonderful people, and attempting to set our summer rescue efforts in motion.

Now some of you have already contacted me with offers to foster or transport, and I thank you. You will be contacted soon about your first foster pet or transport run, and I hope I can count on you to be true to your word. To anyone wishing to step forward and become more involved in our work, links and email addresses will be given in this posting please read on.

This weekend I will once again be away from my computer. I will be busy visiting a couple of local rural areas where animals are regularly abandoned to fend for themselves. We have received reports that there may be a few young mothers with litters living outdoors so we will be searching for them. Should we find them we will need to call on those of you who have stepped forward to assist us. We have no idea what we will find , or what shape the animals will be in, so we need you to step forward and assist us. I will keep the group posted on the weekends rescue efforts so be sure to check the page walls regularly.

Next week I will be meeting with two local school principals to discuss day seminars on animal care and handling, for their students when schools reopen in the fall. I believe that educating our children about animals is an important part of the effort to end the cycle of abuse that society has fallen into. Education of children on how to approach animals has been proven to reduce dog bite incidents. Education also dispels the myths and old wives tales many people believe about companion animals.

I am currently talking with several area bands and performers, and we are in the first planning stages of putting together a benefit concert for the early fall. Details of dates and times will be released when arrangements are finalized. At present we are looking for a large enough venue to accommodate us.

Well I hope you all feel up to date on what is happening with Let’s Adopt Canada. We are growing slowly, but we can do better! Don’t forget to invite your friends and family to join us!

Until Tomorrow Remember

BE THE CHANGE YOU SEEK!
