I apologize for the delay in posting. Looking for a job after 34 years is a bigger -- and more time consuming -- project that I imagined. But on the bright side, there are many things happening in the pet world that will provide some much needed rest and relaxation for us all.
The Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter invites pet lovers to come explore the wine regions of the world on Wednesday, May 18, from 7 to 9:30 p.m. during its Second Annual Wine Tasting at the Brooklake Country Club in Florham Park. There will be many diverse wines for sampling, as well as some boutique spirits to savor. A silent auction will add to the fun. Cost is $65 per person. All proceeds will benefit the animals in the East Hanover shelter's care. For more information or to purchase tickets, call 973-386-0068 or visit http://www.njshelter.org.
Dining for Dogs and Cats will take place Wednesday, March 23, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. for lunch and from 5 to 10 p.m. for dinner at Chili's Bar & Grill, 138 Route 10, East Hanover, to benefit the Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter. A portion of the cost for your meal (take-out or dine-in) will be donated. Just mention the "Give Back" program to help homeless pets.
The annual "Ruff Draught Beer Tasting" to benefit Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter will be held Tuesday, March 29, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Madison Elks Club, 192 Main St., Madison. Sample beers from around the world. Tickets are $35 per person and includes tasty beer snacks.
The shelter also will hold a Shred-a-Thon on Saturday, April 30, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., rain or shine, in the shelter's parking lot at 94 Route 10 West, East Hanover. Drive up in your car or truck and assistants will help in unloading. Materials can be paper, plastic bags or cardboard boxes (it is not necessary to remove staples or paperclips). After shredding, all paper is recycled for processing. Suggested donation is $5 to $10 and benefits the shelter's animals.
People who love pets are needed to provide foster homes for homeless animals. Furever Home Dog Rescue in Randolph is always looking for people to foster pups. If you don't have the time to foster, please pass along the word that foster families are desperately needed. There are many puppies, young and adult dogs in the shelter system that are endanger of being euthanized due to lack of space. Print out the flyer below for distribution (courtesy of Furever Home Dog Rescue). For more information, visit
Foster a Homeless Dog!
Furever Home Dog Rescue http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/NJ630.html saves adoptable dogs from overpopulated high-kill shelters in the south. We are looking for people who are willing to open their homes to foster a dog until they are adopted and placed in their furever homes.
We have puppies, young and older dogs of different breeds that need foster homes. Please consider helping wonderful dogs get a second chance. With your help, we can save more dogs from being destroyed simple because there is no more room at the shelter.
