Special Offer for Shelters, Rescues, Fosters...Discounted Foster Dog T-Shirts

I've had this "Adopt Me, I'm a Foster Dog" dog t-shirt in my store, Reekoe's Room, for quite a long time, but today, I've decided to offer it at a special discount price to shelters, rescue organizations, and pet fosters.

I'm offering this foster dog shirt at BASE price, with no mark-up, in an effort to help rescue organizations, shelters, and fosters "advertise" their foster dogs. The price is $16.99, exclusive of any tax and/or shipping. This special price is ONLY available through this link.

Please feel free to pass this offer on to anyone you think might be interested.

Nymphadora Tonks is Looking for Her Magical Person! Black Lab, Fargo-Moorhead

Nymphadora Tonks, or "Dora" for short, is a beautiful one-year old female black lab. She is currently fostered by my sister-in-law-to-be through Adopt-A-Pet of Fargo-Moorhead. Sweetie "Dora" was adopted when she was just a puppy, but she was returned to Adopt-A-Pet.

Are you that "magical" someone "Dora" is looking for?

From her foster:

"She is the sweetest dog I have ever met! Dora is quite mellow for a lab. She is the kind of dog that is excited when you want her to be excited, and lazy when you want her to be lazy. She will gladly go on a walk and then cuddle with you for a nap. She just wants to be loved! Dora thinks she is a lap-dog. One of her favorite things to do is be the "big spoon" when you sleep at night. Dora loves snow and will try to make her own snow-angels in the deep stuff. Dora is spayed and current on all her shots. Due to some unfortunate circumstances at her previous residence, Dora had trouble going to the bathroom as much as any other dog would, but she has not once had an accident inside. Dora is also very fearful of certain men but accepting of women and some men. Once she realizes you aren't going to hurt her she will try to lick your face off! Dora is sweet enough to be around kids and she loves to play with other dogs. Dora has never chewed anything she wasn't supposed to, but she does like to lazily pull apart her own toys. Right now she is about 10 to 15 pounds overweight but she should hopefully lose it quickly with a healthier diet and a few more walks during the day!"

If you are interested in adopting "Dora," please contact "Adopt-A-Pet" of Fargo-Moorhead.

If "Dora" isn't right for you, but you live in the Fargo-Moorhead area, please consider adopting a needy pet from "Adopt-A-Pet." About "Adopt-A-Pet":

Adopt-A-Pet is a non-profit, completely volunteer-run organization with the primary goal of placing rescued pets in loving and responsible homes. We are dedicated to keeping our animals happy and healthy.

We receive no government financial support. Adopt-A-Pet relies solely on private donations to keep operating. Private donations, fundraising events, and our adoption fees help us pay for food, medical supplies, and the veterinary expenses we incur every month.

All of our animals are under our care until a permanent home can be found, no matter how long it takes.

Did you Know????
Each year hundreds of cats and dogs are euthanized. In 2006, 1291 cats were admitted to the Fargo, West Fargo, and Moorhead pounds, and 574 of them were euthanized. In 2006, 979 dogs were admitted to the pounds, and 112 were euthanized. These numbers do not account for the large numbers who die on the streets or are hit by cars. Please spay or neuter your pets.

Do you have extra room in your heart and home to provide temporary safety to a dog or cat in need? One of the greatest ways to help rescue organizations is to foster pets. For more information, please visit the Pet Foster Network, which has lots of great resources for people considering fostering.

I'm happy to announce that "Adopt-A-Pet" of Fargo-Moorhead is also to be the March recipient of proceeds from my Cafepress store, Reekoe's Room. 100% of the profits from every sale from my store through the month of March goes directly to "Adopt-A-Pet."

Update 6/2: I'm very happy to report that lovely Dora has been adopted!

Reekoe's Room

As an avid supporter of animal rescue, I am constantly looking for new and creative ways I can help. Several months ago, I decided to start a Cafepress store in the hopes of raising extra money to donate to my favorite rescue groups. My store, Reekoe's Room, features unique gifts for pet lovers, including t-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, bumper stickers, and more. Most of my designs promote the adoption of shelter pets, spaying and neutering, and kindness towards animals. For example, my Report Animal Cruelty Design, featured on the left, has been a consistent best-seller.

Each month, I select an animal rescue organization or shelter and donate 100% of the profits from my store. This little experiment in virtual volunteerism has turned into a great success!

In December 2007, the proceeds from Reekoe's Room went to Saving Shelter Pets, Inc. Through purchases made at my store, I was able to donate almost $200.00 to this organization.

In January 2008, the proceeds from Reekoe's Room will go to the Newnan-Coweta Humane Society, located in Newnan, Georgia. This small humane society works tirelessly to rescue dogs and cats slated for euthanization at the local animal control facilities.
