This isn’t the way I planned to do this, but while I sit here waiting to get the news that I can pick up Oscar from his ultrasound and needle biopsy procedure, I’d like to post a “press release” of sorts. GoFetchGifts.com may be a side venture right now, but I’ve been working hard trying to set up promotions on our limited budget (which is now even more limited due to Oscar’s liver disease). I set up some promotions prior to Oscar’s decline, and this month is when they all come to fruition. Hopefully they will help spawn sales, the profits of which will go toward vet bills.
On Saturday, June 13th, we will be represented in both Eau Claire, Wisconsin and Austin, Texas!
Bob’s House for Dogs is a brand new shelter in Northern Wisconsin. They are holding their first annual Canine Carnival that day, and we will have a booth set up. We also donated a crystal dog collar charm for their raffle. The shelter is being opened by an Eau Claire Police Chief and his family, and it was named after their former beloved rescue dog, Bob. Bob’s House will rescue dogs from the Eau Claire County Humane Society, housing them and processing adoptions from their newly built facility. The new shelter’s web site is http://www.bobshousefordogs.org, however as I write this the site appears to be under construction as well! Below is a news clip about the new shelter.
That same day, the Austin Boxer Rescue of Texas will be holding their annual Silent Auction Fundraiser. GoFetchGifts.com donated a hand-crafted Boxer planter for the auction.
Finally, on June 20th, GoFetchGifts.com will be represented at the 13th Annual star-studded Heart of the Hamptons Ball in New York. Each year, this gala is produced by the American Heart Association. Past attendees and speakers have included Christie Brinkley and former Mayor of New York, Rudy Giuliani. We donated a luxury stainless steel dog treat jar and matching stainless steel dog bowl for the auction, which will be part of a dog-lovers basket.
Authors bio is coming up shortly.
