The "Pets for U.S. Vets" Ride Again!!!


The Claysville American Legion Riders Post 639 have done it, again! President Tim Hammett organized a Fox and Hound ride to raise money for the Veterans Fund at the Washington Area Humane Society. It turned out to be a beautiful day and lots of great people showed up to donate.

The Veterans Fund at the WAHS allows our local veterans to adopt at no charge. The dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, UTD on shots and a 1 year wellness program is included in the adoption. Please donate to or adopt from this wonderful program. It is helping two organizations at one time: our local veterans and our homeless shelter pets.

Over the course of the last 5 years, this program has found homes for close to 250 animals. You can contact me, Suzi Smith, personally at dogparty84@aol.com with any ideas for fund raising or check with the WAHS. If you donate at the WAHS, please mark "VETERANS FUND" on your check. Scroll to the very beginning to read about how and why this program was started. Our Veterans are the most important people to our country. Thank You to all of them! Pooches Gracious!

I have some pictures to post from yesterday's ride. I will do that as soon as my computer acts right. :-)      So, in the meantime, enjoy this picture of 3 of my 4 hounds from an earlier DogParty...
