Pride Fest

Volunteering at Pride Fest for
Pet Haven

I got to volunteer for my alma mater Pet Haven (www.pethavenMN.org) on Sunday at Pride Fest. Mom signed us up for a shift with JD (this really cool St. Bernard who just came into Pet Haven's foster program). I thought my job was going to be to woo the crowd to our booth, but it was JD who did the job so well .... of course, I was okay with it because JD is such a big handsome boy who deserves to have his own forever home just like me.

We had lots and lots of people coming to say hi. I sure hope JD gets a home soon. He's such a sweet boy ... and yes, a BIG boy ... all 130 pounds of St. Bernard love! Hmmm, that's about two and a half times how much nung-nung weighs :)

If you want to learn more about JD you can check out his bio. At the beginning of my shift we also had Kirby, a senior pom, hanging out with us. He's also looking for his forever home. He's not yet up on the Pet Haven website but you can email dogs@pethavenMN.org if you want more info!

Painting with Puppies ...

The photo on the left was taken in October, 2008 when mom first met me. I was originally rescued by Karen Good of Red Lake Rosie's Rescue in northern Minnesota ... yes, dumped with a litter of 8 puppies. Don't get me wrong, i loved my puppies but I am SOOO glad I will no longer have any puppies. It's just not right ... there are too many of us that suffer and are euthanized (yes, that's a big word even for nung-nung ;-) simply because there aren't enough homes. So mom tells me she's working hard to get the word out about the importance of spaying and neutering dogs and cats.

She shared with me this really cool video that a local artist made that highlights the work of Minnesota Spay Neuter Assistance Program (MNSNAP) ... Check out the video and help spread the word about MNSNAP and also about spaying and neutering!
