11-11-11 is HERE!

Wow, I have such an awesome post for you today! There are so many amazing things going on today. First off, it's Veterans Day. Now, even though they have that yucky "v-e-t" in their name, this kind of vet is the amazing kind who serves our country to defend all our freedoms, even at the cost of their own lives. LBR would like to raise a 21-paw salute to all the brave veterans, both two-legged and four-legged, who have served or are currently serving. Thank you for all you do!


Next, today is the last day of Mayzie's Rescue Me Week! Mayzie is honoring her Grampa J by encouraging all bloggers to share pictures and information about all the amazing animals out there that are still looking for their furever homes. And as if that isn't enough, she's going to donate $100 to five different charities that are featured during the week! I think Grampa J must've been a pretty amazing guy. Thanks, Mayzie!


So our dog today is the incredibly handsome ALDRIDGE! Aldi is about two years old, and he's a very good boy full of boxer energy.


Aldi loves to run and play. He would be a great running partner for you! He's very strong, but he's been working really hard to let the humans lead on the leash. He would probably do best with kids over 5 because of his strength and energy. But he knows "sit" and other commands, and he does well in his crate. He loves to hear "Good boy, Aldi!" :)


Aldi loves to play with other dogs, especially his foster brother and sister. But like most boxers, he's a wonderful snugglebug at the end of the day.


Aldi is dreaming of his furever home. Is it you? Check out his bio at Legacy Boxer Rescue today!


And finally.... 11-11-11 is here at last!!


LBR is trying to encourage all its fans and supporters to donate just $11 today. That's not much for just one person, but when you add it all up it becomes a whole bunch of support for our wonderful dogs! To encourage donations today, we're having our first-ever live chat event. Just go to www.savetheboxers.com and follow the 11-11-11 link. We'll be chatting from 11am to 11pm, and each hour will feature a different topic and spotlight different LBR success stories. Yours truly will be available to answer questions and share pictures and stories from noon to 1pm! Please stop by and donate your $11. You could win a prize too, like LBR t-shirts or our 2012 LBR calendar! We'd love to see you and aaaaaaaaaaall your friends. 11-11-11 rocks for the dogs!
