“The slow global economy has lowered the number of animal adoptions more than any of us would like to admit. The animal organizations who are hurting the most aren’t the large national groups. It’s the small local or shelters and organizations that are really struggling right now.”  by Joanne Wannan

********************************

I recently wrote a book called NEW LIVES: Stories of Rescued
Dogs Helping, Healing and Giving Hope. It tells of 18 dogs who were
rescued from shelters and the streets, who are now performing miracles
in animal therapy and as service dogs.

The foreword is written by Dr. Marty Becker (Chicken Soup for the Pet
Lover’s Soul), and cover endorsements are from both the ASPCA and the
Humane Society.

To help create awareness of the plight of shelter animals, I have
created a contest where people can tell their shelter story, and win
valuable prizes. Not only that, but 2 lucky winners will each  have
15% of the profits from the sale of NEW LIVES donated to the shelter
or rescue of their choice.

Details of the contest are available at:
