Here's a sneak peek pic from the Dog-A-Thon. We all had a great time, but it was hot, hot, hot. In all the pictures we took of the dogs, their tongues are hanging out. Fortunately, they had water bowls everywhere and wading pools to cool them off.
I'm working on a long Dog-A-Thon and auction wrap-up post right now which I'll post later this morning. So much to say,, so many to thank...!!!
For now,, if you would care to find out more about the day, you can read an article in our local paper by clicking here.
Great article! And mention of IBKC! Woot!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for more pics (of the Fortunatos...heheheh!) And, of the Dog-a-Thon!
Chiming in with Julia on the IBKC mention!
ReplyDeleteWhoohoo shout-out!! Go-go ittybitties!! Congrats and thank you.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see your efforts were mentioned in the newspaper, Laurie!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to more tails...er..tales!
Maybe next year they could move the date to the spring and fall so it wouldn't be so hot...
It sounds like the event was a resounding success! Wonderful to see the IBKC's contribution recognized. (And yay for free publicity for the IBKC website!)
ReplyDeleteHuzzah! Congratulations, Laurie! I'm so proud of everyone involved here. :)
ReplyDelete(BTW, I submitted a comment noting the misspelling of your name in the article. Hopefully they will fix that lickety-split...).
That poochie's tongue is as long as he is!
ReplyDeleteNice IBKC mention! Sounds like you helped to raise over 7% of the total funds, that's some serious cat power.
ReplyDeleteLooking foward to all the pics. Too bad it was so hot!
ReplyDeleteWowee!! I didn't tear up when we reached the goal, but boy... reading that article got to me! So often, it's dogs that get all the attention, cuz we can't walk our cats. Really, really nice to see cats (and IBKC) get credit! Kittypowah!
ReplyDeleteMy local shelter just got in a pair of 8 week olds and even though they don't do outside fostering there it was all I could do not to beg the manager to let me try. I'm so envious of both the kittens, and the funds raised.
ReplyDeleteYou're famous! :)
ReplyDeleteWell done on the fundraising. What a great effort!
brilliant! glad to see the ibkc was did it's part in reminding people about the cats! max-cat and ava-p cat said to tell you how happy they are about the funds raised. and p would also like you to know that she too is a humane society cat.. greenhill in eugene, ore. :)
ReplyDeleteWow that is so great that you were mentioned in the article! I can't wait to read more about it!
ReplyDeleteBeing a former Northwesterner (now in the Northeast), I was shocked to see the temps on the news! I'm so sorry it was such a hot day for you and all the doggies!
ReplyDeleteHooray for the amazing IBKC! Really sorry about the heat. I'll drink lots of water for you.
