Hello everyone! We are hard at work on the dog parks. We are working on some new fundraisers, but until we get them put together would anyone be interested...
Hi Abbey, Can you or anyone else post an update (or a link to one) that shows how much has been raised and what amount needs to be raised to make this a...
Linda - The figures I gave are reality give or take a little on the amount raised. I don't have the exact figure raised here, but the $100,000 is our goal to...
Sorry, I haven't been very involved yet. What have you guys done besides the website, the fliers, and the corporate donations? I found you guys through the...
Forwarded from: http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/Dogpark-National-News/ Special Announcement # 197 OK It's only February 4 but ... "100 citations have been...
We have had quite a few fundraisers and are looking into more corporate donations and other ideas. There is no need to apologize. We all do what we can. We...
When the weather gets warmer, if someone had a nice private trail, I'd pay a registration fee to go on a group walk. Or buy an overpriced T-shirt for a group...
I don't know that this is such a bad thing. Lots of cities and states are figting bad anti-pet or anti-breed laws right now. If we don't promote responsible...
What do you guys think? Not our primary goal, but certainly of concern to all dog owners, and the more attention we call to dog law in our area, the more...
If we do the t-shirts, do we have a cool logo to put on them? ... if what ... very ... busy ... some ... for a ... wants ... bring ... (I'm ... per ... right ...
As of now I don't believe we have a logo. We do have access to a couple of graphic artists who have helped us in the past. Do you have any ideas or want to...
Just happened accross this one: http://www.petsit.com/dogday/ The main foccus of the event is to help shelters, but it encourages fundraising and promotion for...
I'm no artist! Or at least my art talents don't lend themselves to drawing. I'm more of a textile person. Doggie coats I might be able to do, and iron-on...
The best way to encourage responsible ownership at dogparks and also enforce reasonable fees is to use electronic access cards to regulate who can enter. And...
The other problem with hiring 15 people to conduct these ambushes at dogparks is that you would reach the point of diminishing returns VERY, VERY quickly and...
Could someone post the link to the website you are talking about? I still haven't seen anything that tells what the total cost is supposed to be and how much...
Do we have any support from the county in our fundraising efforts? If we wanted to use some county space for an event, would they bill us for it? Any support...
We have a lot of support from the county. They are always willing to help when able. I am glad to hear you are still thinking of ideas. The only obstacle we ...
When we planned events in Girl Scouts, the best way to keep upfront costs down was to require pre-registration. We'd often pay for T- shirts and Sweatshirts...
I like your thinking. It is a lot of work, but not impossible. I think you should keep the thoughts going. I will think on it too. My main pc is down and...
There's a bill in process to require all dogs in NYS be microchipped, and possibly all cats as well. (The summary of the bill mentions cats, but the details...
If done once sucessfully, it wouldn't be too bad to do annually, it's that first year when you have no idea how many people will come or what the snags are......
Good letter. I agree with you, but just a couple of comments.... I work at a vet, so unfortunately I can see how veterinarians in general can use this as a...
Vet: I find my vet very reasonable on costs. I hadn't even thought of that angle. Shelters: more and more of the larger shelters are including microchipping,...
Might want to write your assembly member in support of this: NYS Assembly Bill A01896 prevents insurance companies from charging extra or denying coverage...
My letter. Obviously the middle paragraph doesn't apply to everyone. Susan John, Please support bill A1896, to protect pet owners from unfair discrimination...
My name is Kim, and I've been walking my dog at Ellison off and on for 3 years now. I was peripherally aware of k9s@play, and very grateful for the disposal...
