Make Your Dog a Rock Star!

There is still time to submit a story for the upcoming Happy Tails Books compilation “Lost Souls: FOUND! Inspirational Stories of Adopted Golden Retrievers.” If you have a good story about your adopted dog, they want to hear from you! Your submission will not only help in an effort to raise awareness about dog rescue, it will also benefit our rescue group, as a portion of proceeds will be donated back to us.

Happy Tails Books would like to receive your dog’s story, whether you consider yourself a good writer or not. It can be from your perspective or the dogs. Just be sure that they story is clear, interesting and has a point. Stories that are emotional (happy, sad, exciting, etc) are most likely to make it into the book.

For a complete set of guidelines and the story submission form, visit http://happytailsbooks.com.

The deadline for Golden Retriever submissions is July 30^th, 2009.

EGRR has decided to retire the “Rescue Rocks” logo on our t-shirts. We will be holding a t-shirt design contest to replace our “Rescue Rocks” design. The winning design will be featured as our next rescue t-shirt! Start thinking about your new design and keep looking here for more information!!!

Emmie came from Palm Beach County ACC, and was turned over to EGRR because she had a “skin condition” and was not considered to be adoptable.  Her skin condition was most likely flea bite dermatitis, and now that the fleas are gone, Emmie’s coat is growing in nicely.   Once she was fully evaluated by our vet, and had recovered from her spay surgery, she moved to her foster home.

According to her foster family, she is just a great girl!  She is living with several other Goldens and gets along well with everyone.  She just loves to play and is as cute as a button, as you can see from this pictures.  She is housebroken and knows her basic commands, but since we don’t know her background she cannot go to a home with young children.  She would be great for a family with kids 9 or older, and would love to have a fur brother or sister to play with.  If you would like to meet our Emmie, please contact EGRR and ask about her.  You won’t be sorry.
