Big Paws Needs Support
« on: April 18, 2006, 01:30:29 am »
Jaime and I had never really planned on needing help running this site, and it's tough to ask, but here we are crossing the threshold between time spent paying for server, support and bandwidth costs and time just creating, coding and designing. As you'll read in the details, Jaime and I have supported the costs largely because of our love of this community and our family of big dogs, but also because we want to contribute to the lives of other gentle giants. Please see the below link for more details.

If you can help, and it can be any amount really, it will be graciously appreciated.

Michael, Jaime & Bear

BPO is the best site - EVER! I am addicted and am sooooo grateful for this community of caring, selfless, entertaining, friendly big dog loving folk.
You, Jaime, and Bear are doing amazing work on behalf of us all! Thanks for everything y'all do!
Help is on the way...

p.s. if I win the Mega Millions lottery tonight, I will hook up BPO big time!  ;D

Thanks you everyone for your support. It is really humbling to ask those that we love for help to keep this site going. As we grow though, so does the amount of love, kindness, and friendship that others help to contribute regularly. This is the best place on earth (IMO) and I am so thrilled that with your continued help we will be able to keep Our Home alive and well.

Ya'll shouldn't feel bad about asking for help.  These websites do get expensive (not to mention time consuming) and it isn't like you're asking for our firstborn!  I do appreciate this place so much.  It supports my dog addiction!
