BPO Updates - Input Needed
« on: August 24, 2005, 03:30:22 pm »
Look out for some super cool updates to the BPO website over the next few weeks!

Paw Prints, BPO Addict Client (still a secret), and a few other updates are planned. The biggest of them however will be the launch of a new online store - a store where we can all purchase any of our typical large doggy products, but with a very cool twist - we will be able to specify, at the checkout, what animal charity gets 10% of the proceeds! This is where we need everyone’s help.

Lets all post a few animal charities and or trusts that you think best has our gentle giants' welfare at heart. Because we are still small, we’ll first need to drill it down to 5 or so charities through a poll. Once we have all decided on the organizations that deserve our attention, we will go ahead and add them to the shopping cart functionality. Hopefully together, we can make a small difference in the world!

What is your favorite Animal Charity?

Okay I spelled it wrong(SPIN) but it stands for saving Pyrs in need. http://www.geocities.com/savingpyrsinneed/   
If you can't point to this address and click then copy and paste the web address in your address bar or look for one of Pup Daddy's post and he has a link at the bottom of all his posts. He had a thread on Pyrenees Pictures yesterday about how many dogs they have rescued lately and I think he has 3 rescue pups he is fostering right now.

I'm a fan of Second Chance League:
http://members.petfinder.org/~AK17/index.php

They rescue sled dogs in Fairbanks. I'm going to look into adopting a dog from them around September probably.

I vote for Bear, Inc.  LOL!!  Nice try there Jaba!

I'm not sure if there is one, but is there a giant breed general rescue?  I know most folks around here have Saints, Newfs, Danes, and Pyrs, but maybe there is one that we can give to that will help out not only those precious creatures, but Swissys, Mastiffs, Berners, Dobes and the like as well!!  Marit - Do you know of one?

Oh - and I think giving to PupDaddy's rescue is a GREAT idea!  As long as we get regular updates PupDaddy!!!  ;D

Actually, just to add to that....I kind of like the idea of ANY dog rescue that works with inmates. We've got a program like that here, too. Its Prison Tails.

Also...there is one in Chicago that devotes ALOT of resources into rescuing, rehoming and rehabilitating Pit Bulls, along with educating the public and dispelling myths. I'll post the link in a second. I've gotta find it...
