Special
Notice! |
Some of you may
have heard about the ZooToo Million Dollar Shelter Makeover. We
are not running in this makeover contest, but we received an
email from Dawn, one of Habitat for Horses' volunteers.
Tawnee
asked her to write up an
 email
just for our blog/e-news and she wrote: "We really need the help
to keep in the top 20 to move on to the next division of the
contest, which is the shelter visit! Please join us at
http://www.zootoo.com/makeover.
When you get there you need to register and use Habitat for
Horses as your shelter and rescue and the zip code is 77563.
This contest is for a Million Dollar Shelter Makeover. If we can
win we could help so many more equines have a better life!
Rescue them from going to slaughter, abuse, neglect, starvation
and the list goes on and on as we both know. Visit
Zootoo
and show us pics and videos of your beautiful babies, make
comments on news articles, play pet wars, review products and
services, answer questions and all these help us accumulate
points to stay in the top 20."
There are
only 8 days left in this part of the contest and Habitat for
Horses is in 16th place and has 397,756 points. We believe that
Habitat for Horses does a great work and so we would like you to
vote for them. They were hit by a terrible storm last year and
lost a lot of their facilities. This makeover would help them
out a lot. |

On eBay! |
Today is the last day that you can bid on our
Antique Smith-Corona
Sterling typewriter.
It is currently
at $305, let's hope several wealthy people want it very badly and are
all waiting for the last minute. Even if not, we are very thankful for
the funds that it will bring, and that it has been a
successful
fundraising effort.
Click here, let's get a bidding war
going on!
It has had 27 bids so
far and we would like to thank everyone who has bided on this
typewriter. |
|
All of the funds will be used for the horses! |

This Week's Review

 Lippy
Conner has some new video on YouTube. In one of his videos he insisted
that he get a carrot. Jason grabbed the video camera and recorded the
action.
Click Here to watch "Lippy Conner Loves Carrots" it is really cute.
This week Haul Your Horse signed up as a sponsor, advertising on
the left menu bar on our website. They offer a great service: horse
trailer rentals! We have had dozens of people asking "Where can we rent
a trailer?" So far our best response has been "Uh,
hmmm,
err, U-haul?" Their rates seem very reasonable, and they have horse
trailers available for rent throughout California and Oregon.

Show Dressed Up has generously donated a $125 gift certificate
good towards the purchase of one of
 their
beautiful show shirts. The gift certificate will be included in the
silent auction at the Skating Party, June 24th.
Show Dressed
Up's items run from $19.99 to $125.00, so this gift certificate
could get you a really amazing
 western
show shirt.
Click

party, bidding, dreaming, and getting your new show shirt. You too can
give gift certificates, small items, large items, whatever you feel
would help bring funds in to save horses at the silent auction. Just
send them to us!
The LA Times ran an article about how the economy is affecting horses,
and had a few paragraphs near the end of the article about us. We would
like to thank all of the media for the exposure that helps raise
awareness
for horses in need!

This Week's
Adoptions |
|
This week we had one adoption, with all the rain,
flooding and all in all bad weather, adopters found it hard to make it
out. We have a lot of horses in adoption pending and Claire has been
working hard on getting the adoption applications processed.
Countess was adopted and
transported to her new home, her new mommy is so happy to have her. It
always makes us so happy when horses find their loving homes. |
|
So far this year we have saved 73 equines!
Help us
save more horses from abuse, slaughter and starvation. |
