Big Dogs Rock!

This Saturday is the third annual "Big Dogs Rock" event at Fiesta Island. During this special adoption event, you will meet some big dogs with big hearts - and maybe take home your new best friend! The event features big dogs only (50 pounds or more) and puppies that will eventually be big dogs. Several of our big dogs will be looking for homes at the event, including Guero (pictured at right) - unless he is adopted before then - so bring your own dogs to play on Fiesta Island, buy a raffle ticket, and maybe take home your new best friend!

Two Escondido Humane Society adoptable dogs helped promote the event on KUSI. Click on the following link to check them out: http://www.kusi.com/news/goodmorning/52897337.html

Big Dogs Rock is Saturday, Aug. 15, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Fiesta Island. For more information, go to http://sdshelters.com/archive/2009BDR.html.

Save the date for Tails at Twilight!

Join us at our 16th annual Tails at Twilight gala at the Orfila Vineyard and Winery on Oct. 17! Attendees will be treated to a silent auction, entertainment, dinner and much more. We are even inviting your canine companions to join the party!

This year's theme - "Fall in Love" - could not be more appropriate for the work we all do for animals in need. We provide loving care during their time with us, and we help them find a family who will give them the love they so deserve - love that they return tenfold. If you haven't joined us before, this is the year to accompany us as we celebrate making a difference in the lives of animals - and the many people who love them.

For tickets, sponsorship opportunities or auction information, e-mail Abigail Rowland Kouzi, Development Director, at development@escondidohumanesociety.org.
