I posted about Mason at the APL blog. He’s another of the dogs that will be helped by proceeds from my Etsy sales. He’s an adorable Redbone who is very shy *and* hw+. Doesn’t stand a chance of getting out of the shelter w/o rescue and/or sponsorship. More about Mason.

good news

I found out today that a local reporter would like to do a story on my newly-formed ACAPL Rescue Team. Very exciting b/c the more attention we can get for the animals in need, the more likely they are to be saved :) I’ll be sure to post a link here when the article is up.

Also I finally got enough items in both of my Etsy shops to fill my Etsy minis in the right-hand column of this blog. Small victories :)

Back again :)

Well, I’ve really allowed this blog to go dormant (like my bank account, but at least the blog didn’t charge me $5 for the trouble!) Now that I have my fashionsplatter Etsy store open I suppose I’ll resurrect it.

I’ve also started a new group to help special needs animals at the Ashtabula County APL here in NE Ohio…the ACAPL Rescue Team. 20% of the proceeds from my fashionsplatter shop go to this cause, as well as 100% of proceeds from my AnimalProtectvLeague shop. I’ll also soon be opening my fashionsplatterVintage shop, which will also donate 20% of proceeds to the ACAPL Rescue Team. (BTW, the profits from both fashionsplatter shops will go to my animal rescue, SeNoRa.)

The current dog I’m looking to raise funds for is Fiona:

She needs x-rays to find out what’s wrong with her hips, and if she can be treated. You can find out more about Fiona at the APL blog.

    About

    After years of soul-crushing corporate employment I moved to the country to start an animal rescue with my husband. Now I spend my days cleaning up poop, trying to find homes for animals in need, and making things, which I sell to support my rescue efforts. When I'm not in the doldrums of a depression I realize that I am very lucky indeed :)
