CALENDAR PHOTOS

We are currently seeking photos for our 2011 GoldHeart calendar! If you own a GoldHeart golden and would like to submit his/her photo for consideration, please send a digital, high resolution, and very clear photo. Please email your photo, along with a few comments about your dog (name, GH number, habits, likes, etc) to Julie Emerson at goldheartcalendar@gmail.com. Thank you!

PLEASE HELP

The economy is taking its toll on everyone and GoldHeart is no exception, so we are asking for help. We have made a wish list. Below you will find a list of things that we are in desperate need of:

  • Flea and tick medication (Frontline, K-9 Advantix ONLY)
  • Heartworm medication (Interceptor, Sentinel) for weight ranges of 50-100 lbs
  • Mailing envelopes (10 x 13)
  • Postage stamps (Forever stamps)
  • Copier paper
  • Gift cards to pet stores or online pharmacies (e.g., PetSmart, Petco)
  • Dog shampoo
  • Grooming supplies
  • Gentle Leader Easy Walk Harnesses (for large and x-large dogs)
  • Joint supplements for foster homes (Nupro-Silver - order online at usbones.com, select GoldHeart as our REWARDS Fundraising Partner; Move Free Joint Supplement - buy at Wal-Mart or any drug store)
  • Vitamin supplements
  • Good quality dog treats

These are supplies that GoldHeart uses year-round because, as you know, the dogs never stop coming in. We take in, on average, 100 dogs a year!!

If you can find it in your hearts to donate any of these items, please email Barb Schaefer and she will instruct you where to send anything you can donate. Please keep in mind that anything donated to GoldHeart is tax deductible.

We also need someone who can repair our donated copier. We desperately need to get this copier up and running. Anyone who can repair or knows someone who can repair will donate some time to us to do that, please let us know!

Thank you so much,
GoldHeart Board of Directors

GoldHeart Goldens need YOUR help!
Goldens need GoldHeart's benevolent assistance in ever increasing numbers. Families are falling on hard times or develop medical issues, which demand the heartwrenching decision to surrender their beloved Golden family members. Rehoming these displaced Goldens is what GoldHeart is here for! But, we can't help as many as we would like to without YOUR help. These suddenly family-less Goldens need a safe place to call their temporary home, where they're loved and cared for - until they are united with their new forever family.

Foster Families Needed

Commercial boarding facilities are a true blessing when available. They help out by providing shelter, safe haven, kindness and much devoted love. The kind folks working there are doing their level best showering GoldHeart Goldens with as much gentle kindness as they can, often laying wonderful obedience training foundations. Their task is manifold, attention has to be shared with many fuzzy kids who spend their vacations there. Sadly, we cannot afford to keep our furkids there for very long as we have to prioritize funds to cover the consistently rising veterinary expenses.

Won't you please consider becoming a Foster Home for GoldHeart's Goldens to help these sad faces smile again? Golden Retrievers are one of the most rewarding breeds to rescue. The Golden has the admirable ability to embrace life at face value, which makes fostering a truly warm and fuzzy, rewarding labor of love.

We are often asked, "How do you give them up once they've been a part of your family?" Placing a dog in a wonderful home is more rewarding that you can imagine and as a foster home you can save many more than you could ever adopt. MORE...
