Pink! Pink! Pink! Receives Daisy's Wag of Approval

I just love Pink! I love her music, I love how Pink stands up for what she believes in and I love her strength as a woman. She is an amazing role model for woman of all ages. Her work to support animal rights has always been in the forefront. Pinks latest endeavor with the Prince and the Queen is a must see. And like I have said before it doesn't matter what level we support animals, whether it's wildlife, pets, dogs, cats, farm animals,whether our voices are as loud as Pink or as simple as volunteering for a shelter we are all needed and all make a huge impact on the well being of all animals and society as a whole.
Thank you Pink!!!!

IHOP May Receive Daisy's Wag of Approval?

We're pleased to give you the promising news that IHOP has agreed to begin testing the use of cage-free eggs, and, if successful, intends to switch millions of eggs from battery to cage-free within the next few months. This is a huge victory for the Humane Society as well as to the efforts put forth by Bill Maher
http://www.humanesociety.org/issues/campaigns/factory_farming/
As you may have read in my previous blog this campaign was very important for all farm animals, again this support goes beyond just chickens but rather sheds light on those companies and food chains who are blind to animal cruelty. To many people chickens are pets just like a dog or a cat is to you and I, and even if you would never choose to have a chicken as a pet like we all agree all animals deserve to live a life without pain and suffering induced unnecessarily by humans. The Human Society has done amazing work to support all animals, dogs, cats, birds, horses and all farm animals please continue to support their hard work by volunteering or sending a small (or large) donation.

Clear Channel receives Daisy's Wag of Approval!

This month, 20 Alley Cat Allies billboards went up around the city. They advertise the local Every Kitty – Every City Baltimore web page and program. A special thanks to Clear Channel for donating the advertising space. Keep a look out for these beautiful billboards.
There always seems to be an abundance of cats in the animal shelters. And as most of you know there is nothing easy about adopting out a full grown cat. The kittens tend to go first but please don't forget how wonderful an adult cat is to have around and how grateful theses cats always are to be rescued.

Inspiration for What about Daisy?

I can't say enough great things about the rescue foundation, Rolling Dog Ranch, they were our inspiration for What about Daisy? as well as the encouragement we needed during some of the more trying times raising Daisy our blind and deaf dog and Louie our three legged cat. Rolling dog ranch does adopt and or rescue animals for life but on occasion they will adopt out. What I love best about their stories is there is always a happy ending, these dogs and cats always find heaven on earth in the Rolling Dog Ranch sanctuary. I always look forward to their monthly newsletters and blogs to see what dog, cat or horse has arrived home.
Rolling Dog Ranch was recently awarded Winner of ASPCA 2009 Humane Award.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! and thank you for the great work.
Check out their video here:

Blink 182 get's Daisy's Wag of Approval!!

Tom DeLonge and his rescue dog's Chloe and Grey are starring in Peta's "Have the Ball's to Fix Your Dog" ad to help spread the word about the animal overpopulation crisis. Most of the dogs out there in the pounds and animal rescues are due to unnecessary overpopulation from dogs who are not fixed, whether from carelessness or lack of funds on the owners part . Please remember there are many very cheap clinics out there to fix your dog or cat in your area. If you need help finding one in a city near you please email me for assistance and I would be glad to help.

Bill Maher added his voice

Bill Maher get's Daisy's Wag of Approval!!!!

Bill Maher has added his voice to the Humane Society's campaign to improve conditions for the hens who provide eggs to IHOP ! Bill urges IHOP to start buying eggs from cage free hens.
For those of you who are new to the concept of cage free hens and why we support it check out the video below, for those that are already aware please go to the humane society's site to sign their letter. And don't forget most grocery stores do sell cage free eggs (Trader Joe's has the best prices) so we no longer have an excuse to not support those animals, in need. And keep in mind Bill Maher supporting any campaign with the Human Society will always affect in a positive light dog and cat adoptions, and animal cruelty cases.

Daisy gives ebay her wag of approval

Did you know? After consulting with a number of organizations including World Wildlife Fund, International Fund for Animal Welfare, the Humane Society of the United States, and the US Fish and Wildlife Service eBay has decided to institute a global ban on the sale of all types of ivory. This global ban went into effect January 1, 2009 Even though this does not directly effect dog and cat rescues, or pet adoption centers this is a great message to send to all those companies out there lacking the awareness to support wildlife as well as our best friends, whether cat dogs or birds!
