Save a Dog By Shopping at Non-Profit Organizations
By shopping at the web site of your favorite non-profit dog rescue or animal shelter you can help save the animals. The stores that link to these web sites donate a portion of the sale to the non-profit organizations when you purchase your dog products and supplies from them.
Cazadero, CA (PRWEB) September 25, 2006 -- Shopping for your dog can help raise funds for animal rescue non-profit organizations that rescue animals who are abandoned or surrendered.
A slide show about abandoned senior pugs is currently circulating the Internet. They are abandoned for many reasons. One reason is that as the baby boomer generation ages or dies, they can no longer care for their pets. So these old pugs end up in crowded cages in shelters.
The faces of the old pugs are gray, and their eyes are clouded, but the cataracts can't hide their sweet eyes. Their backs are arched and their legs are bent, their steps falter. They have names like Mr. Harry, Butters, Pudge, and Goofy.
These little ones have given so much to their humans, and are now being thrown away, disposed of like garbage. They have given so much to their humans over the years asking nothing in return.
There are thousands of no-profit rescues and shelters across the U.S. that are staffed solely by volunteers. These volunteers give of themselves to save the dogs that end up in these places.
Many of these non-profit organizations are breed specific, and can be found by looking for them by the breed you are interested in. Others rescue all dogs, irrespective of breed.
Many of these organizations have web sites. On these web sites they offer links to stores that provide products especially for dogs. When you purchase your dog products and supplies from these stores a donation is made to the non-profit organization by that store. How is that for making the most of your money!
For instance, VIPoochy is an on line retailer who offers such a program to non-profits. They have Philanthropic Program strictly for such non-profit organizations and was recently featured in the national press for their efforts to donate to rescues, shelters, and the like.
VIPoochy has a history of promoting animal welfare and job creation through high fashion and luxury adornments for the cultured canine and the humans who love them.
VIPoochy reviews each rescue association carefully, and creates an alliance with the rescue association. Once included as a philanthropic partner, VIPoochy provides their rescue association with a Philanthropic banner and link for the rescues web site.
When visitors to the rescue web site click the link, they are directed to the VIPoochy products. The rescue association receives a donation for each purchase made. Collars, charms or even gift certificates are just a few of VIPoochy's offerings.
Further, VIPoochy send a monthly newsletter to their Philanthropic Partners on fund raising tips, event ideas, and other related topics. They also provide their rescue organizations with other gifts and promotional material to use in their fund raising at a local level. How cool is that?
So you see, where you shop can make a difference in a dog's life.
