We're only 1 month away from the Rescue
Me Walk at Woofstock! I've
got a full tank of ants in my pants, a half pack of bacon & cheese flavoured biscuits, and a rogue whisker tickling my nostrils... Nobody can stop me! I'm on a mission from...DOG!!!
You might
remember me. I'm that little one-eyed guy found wandering the moors of rural Ohio with my much older girlfriend, now
known as Scarlet JoHOWLson. They call me Cy. Dad says it's short for Cyclops. Mom insists it's short for Cyril.
I like the ongoing debate. Makes me relevant and kind of a big deal to my foster family which, in turn, makes me feel fuzzy,
happy & goofy all over. That's when I grab my chewed up ("indestructible") ball and fling it in the air as high
as I can get it so it makes a nice loud noise when it hits the floor. ((KABONG!!!)) You'd think I'd
get in trouble for my shenanigans, but they just laugh. Unconditional love is BLISS!
In
the weeks leading up to Woofstock, you'll receive a special letter from each of the BOB beagles but I'm
Number #1!!! That's because I've been chosen to be the Official Walker for BIG ON BEAGLES
this year!
This Walk is really important to Mom. You know her as Marna, the
founder of Big On Beagles. She's been worrying over the veterinary cost trend for
me and several of my fellow homeless howlers as of late...
Pepper $2,769.74
*Pepper never received any serious interest for adoption, no
doubt given her age and chronic arthritis, so she will happily remain with her forever foster family (FFF) Harvey $1,761.07
*Harvey is another oldie but goodie who never found an adopter
but rest assured he's enjoying a wonderful life with his FFF
Angel $1,424.50
*After all Angel has been through, she deserves to stay put
in her very loving foster home
Jerry Maguire $2,548.02
*Jerry is a permanent foster due to his heart. He completes us.
Beowulf
$1,039.49
*Wolfie needed a
couple bad teeth pulled recently - ouch!
Clementine $2,372.02
*We'd do anything for our paperbag princess abandoned in
a shopping mall parking lot in December
Jakey $1,808.33
*Jake also has heart trouble so he's another perma BOB baby
- foster mom says he's a handful!
Scarlet $1,138.90
*My partner in crime! Just like me, she's hard at work
stealing hearts in her foster home! There's been talk of adoption!
Me $
974.17 Wow! I'm the cheapest in this beagle lineup!
Elmo
$1,813.50
*If you met Elmo, you'd go
broke for him too
Our newly discovered happiness...PRICELESS
Big On Beagles doesn't
compromise when it comes to our happiness but sooner or later, the money will run out. Right now, we're scraping the bottom
of our wishing well. We've never been at such a critical low in our funding but I understand why. Big
On Beagles is a special rescue for very special dogs. It reaches out to the ones that need it the most.
The old dogs that get overlooked in the shelters. The dogs with chronic health problems that scare potential adopters away.
And even dogs like me that are actually considered less than perfect by some! Having two eyes is overrated, folks.
I'm awesome. We're all awesome. You know it and Big On Beagles knows it. We're
worth saving. But if the money runs out, we won't be able to come to the rescue
of more awesome beagles like me. It also takes a growing family of dedicated foster parents to save us too.
Mom knows so many of you care about us and that you continue to support us as much as you can. We're so grateful
to you for that. But we're hoping to get others to do the same this year, to be inspired by your unwavering faith in
us. You are all BOB Ambassadors! We love it when you share our stories with everyone you know. The more hearts we can
melt (or steal) with our stories of triumph, the better chance we have at continuing this special work.
So for this year's Walk, please tell everybody you know about us ~ one beagle at a time.
Tell them about how I like to bounce balls on the kitchen floor when I'm feeling especially loved.
And on Sunday June 10th, WALK FOR ME.
