Subject: FOR THE NEWSLETTER: I'm only $75 in the hole! Not enuf!!
Dear Robin,
Small Paws Saved My Life
Just wanted to let you know that we're about a week into Tyler's Online Bichon Bash, and so far I owe you $75.00. I've received some great stories from Small Paws members, but I need more! In your next newsletter, can you please remind the members of Small Paws to send me their adoption stories and photos? It doesn't have to be an entire book, just a paragraph will work if it comes from the heart and has a photo.
My email address is BeverlyVanZant@gmail.com and I'm spending the month of March sharing Small Paws stories and featuring Small Paws adoptable Fluffs at www.PetCareBev.com.
And something new: I have another blog site at www.MyFlatPet.com. Because I can't always take Tyler Small Paws with me, I have a flat version of him that fits in my briefcase. I take photos of Flat Tyler wherever I go and they end up on My Flat Pet. This month, as a fund raiser for Small Paws, I'm giving away 4 flat pets and a fabulous mixed media pet portrait donated by a dear friend of mine. Details are at www.MyFlatPet.com--everybody please come and check it out!
I have a challenge and a pledge for the mighty warriors of Small Paws.
During the entire month of March, I will be hosting an online Bichon Bash to raise money for Small Paws on my blog at www.PetCareBev.com.
THE CHALLENGE: During the month of March, I challenge everyone out there to send me their own Small Paws story, or to send me a photo of their Small Paws pooch.
MY PLEDGE: For every story or photo that I am able to publish on my blog, I will donate $5 to Small Paws. There are 31 days in March. I could easily publish 31 stories--but that would only be a measly $155. I want to publish 2 or 3 stories a day, and lots of photos! C'mon you guys! Send me lots of stories and photos and force me to eat mac and cheese next month so that I can pay off my pledge!
So to recap, I'm spending March blogging about Small Paws; highlighting Small Paws pooches waiting for adoption on PetFinder; and (with everyone’s help) sharing stories and photos from Small Paws members to showcase why we all love and support Small Paws Rescue (and sending $5 to Small Paws for every story/photo I use).
Stories and/or photos should be sent to BeverlyVanZant@gmail.com. I will preserve the privacy of everyone participating.
With your help, I’m looking forward to writing a big check to Small Paws at the end of the month.
All my best,
Kindest regards,
Bev VanZant
