METROBARKS was a howling good time.....

I had a really good time volunteering at the Metrobarks event at Secor Park. Most of the time I was playing with the dogs, my favorite thing of course. But, I was there promoting my platform and raising money for the Toledo Area Humane Society by selling my candy suckers. The suckers may also be purchased at the Toledo Humane Society on Indian Wood Circle for $1.00 each. All proceeds go to the TAHS, so if you stop in please support my platform and TAHS by purchasing one.

I have pics that I will post soon, pictures can also be viewed on facebook by the Toledo Area Humane Society too. Become a friend and view the pictures and other information they have to offer.

Next event will be October 31, 2009..... which will be launching my new fund-raiser for my newly developed foundation and promoting my platform. Details to follow..... check back for more information regarding my foundation, the event and update of photos.

Thanks <3 Jess

My volunteering Days....

I have been spending more time at The Toledo Humane Society. I recently was volunteering when they had their "smitten for Kittens" campaign. Most of the kittens were up for adoption for $100.00 which included Spay/neuter, microchipping, First shots and deworming, leukemia test, vet checked and free followup vet check and other little perks. Not only did I help to promote this by telling everyone I know... we adopted a 8 week old male kitten. Our "Master Yoda".... he really looks like a Yoda. Anyways we have a new addition to our family.

Since we got him in June, he's become quite the little personality in our house. Our vet thinks he's hysterical with his growling and grouching..hahaha. But when he wants love and attention he is adorable. Mom wasn't happy when he decided to jump from the recliner onto the curtains hanging mid air looking around the room then jumps back down. But since have had him front declawed. No more scratches on my face and legs at least but he still likes to bite your feet and toes.

I have a lot of pics to post on here of my times at the Humane Society, and playing with the dogs too! I would like to say I was walking them but they were actually taking me for a walk. If I could adopt some of them I would, but I already have a house full of pets right now and my dad is like NO MORE!!!! 3 cats and 2 dogs I guess is enough! Anyways if you are looking for a great pet there are several cats and dogs at the TAHS up for adoption that would make great pets, please check them out.

I have also made some progress on my platform and starting a new campaign called for PAWS4PETS Campaign. This will be introduced August 22. I will post more information soon so check back for the major event details. I am so excited to get my promotion started and the support of the Toledo Area Humane Society. Its just the beginning!! Many other promotions are being put into action and looking forward to starting to really promote and build my platform. "The ABCs of Owning a Pet" which promotes Being a responsible pet owner and teaching pet health and safety. I am also working on my coloring book that hopefully will be done by winter, but great works take time so its a work of art in progress right now.
