Has anyone done a Dog Walk Fundraiser?

This week one of my fundraising ezine readers wrote to ask me if I knew anything about doing a Dog Walk for a fundraiser.

I didn't. I've never been involved with one, or even lived near where one was scheduled.

So... if you have information to share about how to set it up, things to be careful of, etc. Please share!

Oh - by the way, if you'd like to get that ezine, you can go to www.marte-cliff.com and opt-in. You'll find a box on the top left - when you enter your name and email address, you'll be asked which ezine you want. You can have one - or all 3 if you like!

For Dog Rescuers: A Money Source, Perhaps

Found on Twitter:

This link leads to an article about a dog training site that will be giving away $25,000 in $500 chunks to needy dog rescues. Says there's an on-line form to fill out.

Every rescue needs all the funds it can get, so check it out!

Radio Show for Dog Lovers

Have you ever heard the "My Doggie Says" radio show?

I was honored to be a call-in guest a couple of weeks ago, and as a result have met new friends - a wonderful bonus for sitting around talking about dogs for an hour. Guests cover many different aspects of life with dogs, including dog rescue. When I was on the show, Fred Haney, Heather Murphy, and I discussed dog rescue and fund raising for rescue - among other things, of course!

Fred is the host of the show, and Heather is a volunteer for the Arizona Golden Retriever Connection - an all volunteer, foster based rescue dedicated to placing Goldens in forever homes.

You can learn all about the radio show by visiting Fred's My Doggie Says Blog. You'll love the photos and videos - Fred's dog likes to play soccer!

The radio show is aired on KFNX 1100, Phoenix every Wednesday night from 8 to 9 (Pacific Daylight time/ Mountain Standard Time)

It is also streamed live on www.1100kfnx.com.
