Help Doggies by Donating Your Old Sweaters!

This is sooooo neat! If you donate your old human sweaters, they get made into doggie sweaters and are donated to dogs at shelters in chilly areas. Read about it here: http://bignutshell.com/blogs/dogproject/

I’m just a little dog with no tail, so I can’t makes a sweater, but I bet I can put some shreds in Mommy’s sweaters so that she will want to donate them!

Help For Haiti

I’m just a little dog with no tail, but I can give up a few new toys and boney chewy treats so that Mommy can send moneys to help Haiti. Can you give up something too? Please consider donating to help the relief efforts in Haiti. It is as easy as sending a text message!

Visiting PAWS Chicago

Mommy visited PAWS Chicago right before her marathon race to see the doggies and kitties that she was running for. This doggy was in the window. If you visit PAWS you can ask how much he costs to adopt!

This kitty has only one ear, but he could still hear really well. Remember the pirate cat that I wanted? He got adopted!

At Paws, kitties and doggies don’t have expiration dates.

Mommy also saw a corgi at PAWS, but guess what? That doggie had a tail! I wonder where she found it? I sometimes look for a tail, but I can’t find one.

Mommy’s Marathon Race

My Mommy ran the Chicago Marathon in 5:30:14 on Sunday to raise moneys for PAWS Chicago. I’m just a little dog with  no tail, so I couldn’t go along, but Daddy saw this corgi watching the race at mile 18.

Here is Mommy running up the hill at mile 26. She is wearing the light blue hat:

Mommy also saw more doggies after the race at the PAWS charity tent. Here she is with two PAWS doggies. Mommy says she looks goofy.

When Mommy got home, she was tired and stiff, so I tried to be good and not do too many jumps on her. I licked her ankles though. Mommies taste good, especially after they have been running!

Mommy gave her medal to the Molly. The Molly is a shelter doggie, and when we all learned that she had cancer, Mommy dedicated her race to Molly.

Mommy has raised a little over $500 for PAWS Chicago and has until November 1, 2009, to try to reach her goal of $600. So you can still help by donating here!

Help Mommy Raise Money For PAWS Chicago

Mommy is running a super long way on October 11 to raise money for the PAWS Chicago animal shelter and spay/neuter clinic. She is running much farther than my little dog with no tail legs can go—she is going a whole 26.2 miles! She is running in honor of the Molly because she is a shelter doggie.

Mommy still needs to raise a lot of moneys to meet her obligation to PAWS. Can you help? If so, please go to Mommy’s donation page. Even a donation as small as a dollar helps! Please help the PAWS doggies and kitties!

Vote For Me!

Mommy entered me in the cutest dog photo contest for the Animal Rescue Site on Facebook. If I win, I can buy certificates to vaccinate and spay/neuter animals in shelters!

Here is the picture I used of me and my roomba friend:

Mommy’s Half Marathon Race

Mommy ran a Half Marathon last Sunday as a charity runner for PAWS Chicago.  Here she is crossing the finish line and with her medal. Her chip time was 2:32:37. I’m really proud of my Mommy. I can do lots of runs around the yard, but I can’t walk more than a couple of blocks when I go out with Mommy.

When Mommy got home, I taste tested her medal. I bet I could make the ribbon look prettier by putting some shreds in it!

I tried it on for size too.

Then I tried to take it away to my closet so I could work on fixing the ribbon, but Mommy made me give it back.

Mommy plans to run the Chicago Marathon for PAWS in October. You can donate for her charity cause here.
