Help animals in need with what you do everyday!

As part of our roles as Directors of Housing/Foster Placement and future Directors of Furiends in Furever Homes, Cinderella and I love to share ways that all of you can help animals in need. Of course, we want you to support Legacy Boxer Rescue, the pawesome rescue that saved both of us! But I know most of you also have other shelters and rescues that are near and dear to your own hearts. So here are two grreat ways to help whatever group you want to support, and it's by doing stuff you ALREADY do! How pawesome is that??

The furst is Amazon Smile. This works just the same as shopping at the regular Amazon.com. Except you start our at smile.amazon.com instead of the regular site. You register what charity you want to support (LBR is on the list!), and then for every single purchase you make, Amazon donates a small percentage to your chosen charity! Check it out now and see if your favorite group is on the list. You can do all your holiday shopping and help a grreat cause at the same time!

The next one is WoofTrax. Just go to their website to download their app on your smarter-than-humans phone. Then every time you walk, you just start the app. It keeps track of how far, how long, and how fast you're walking, which is nice for the humans who like to keep track of those things. BUT it also will make a donation based on how far you walk to the shelter or rescue of your choice! There are also options for other activities than just walking, but we haven't used any of those so we can't say how they work. But we use WoofTrax for every single walk we take, twice a day. It's the best! Check to day to see if your favorite group is there, or sign up for Legacy Boxer Rescue (Hurst, TX)!

It's amazing how many pawesome opportunities are out there to help animals in need. A lot of grocery store loyalty cards will also let you set up a favorite charity to donate to based on how much you spend there. (LBR is signed up with Tom Thumb and Kroger, which is where Momma shops fur us. I'm sure there are others!) Do you know of any other cool things like this? Share them in the comments, and lets make the world a better place for all animals!

Cabinet position

Cinderella and I are very honored to have served Mayoress Madi as her Directors of Housing and Foster Placement. This impawtant position allows us to draw attention to the plight of our less-fortunate brethren and work for the day when ALL animals will have a furever home of their own.

Now we're approaching the handover to a new administration.  Co-Mayorz Murphy and Stanley will continue to lead Blogville with the strength and vision of their predecessors. They have asked Cinderella and me to continue on doing our impawtant work as members of their new Cabinet. Our titles will change to Directors of Furiends in Furever Homes, but the work stays the same! Cinderella and I are honored to accept this position and hope to help Blogville raise awareness and fight to get every homeless doggy and kitty (and crab and turtle and anybody else!) a furever home of their own.

Wordless Wednesday: Brrr! edition

In honor of our military veterans

To all those who have served our country, both two-legged and four...

To those who stand on the wall...

To those who answered the call to protect us all...

THANK YOU, and happy Veterans Day!

Take THAT, poodles!

Momma went to a pawty this weekend. Not just any pawty, but a 50s themed one! Momma was all excited, saying she had the pawfect poodle skirt she never got to wear. Hang on, a poodle?! I can't let my momma go out wearing a poodle. I'd never live it down!! So I contacted my Auntie Amanda, who has an embroidery machine, and she got to work.

Doesn't she look pawesome?! Take a look closer at the bottom right. Look familiar?

Yup, she had a Casey on her skirt! (Sorry for the fuzzy picture. Momma can't take pictures right without me there to snoopervise.) And just to make sure, take a look at who was napping on the back!

Momma was bragging all night that anyone could have a poodle skirt, but she was the only one with a boxer skirt!

Happy barkday, Hazel!

Today is my good furiend Hazel's 10th barkday!! Celebrating a whole decade definitely deserves a monster ice cream sundae.

Hope you have a pawesome day, grrl!

Winner winner, chicken dinner!

Okay, I'm not getting a chicken dinner, but I won! Remember I asked you to vote for me in my vet's Howl-o-ween costume contest? Well, I won FURST place for doggies! Momma picked up my prize package yesterday, and OMD!

I was expecting a little bag with a few treats, but just look at all of this! There's lots of treats and toys, plus one of those papers is for a LARGE bag of food, another is for a 6-month supply of Heartgard and Frontline, and another is for a free blood panel! We're super excited. We'll be using the blood panel for Cinderella, since it has to be at our vet, but the majority of the rest we're donating to the pups at LBR. Thanks for helping us win!
