Last minute request for votes! Help us help Sam be a cover model for Sidewalk Dog for July--it's celebrating seniors month, and he's OBVIOUSLY the most pawesome dog there :p To help him out go to the link below and vote for his photo (hint: he's the three-legged one!): https://www.fac.....on%3A17820
Thanks!!

Thanks, Michelle!
And, as a side note for folks who don't want to "overshare"...if you hit "okay" on the first popup and "skip" on the second "Sidewalk dogs wants to..." popup, you won't.
(I had to explain all this to my mom this AM 
She is worried the government might try and steal her identity. Via a contest for elderly dogs. That requires no personal information, whatsoever.

Michelle: ooh...okay! We have until noon on the 20th, I believe. I didn't know if it was okay to x-post stuff like this on the FB page.
Here is the link to the FB post: https://www.fac.....2055bbb844
I'll message Rene/tripawds on FB.

Oh my gosh of COURSE! And you can share stuff like this anytime here or on our FB page.
We voted for him, he is most definitely the most handsomest Senior Dawg ever!
Please remind us each day so this topic stays up top and we remember to vote. Good luck!

Thank you, thank you!
Like I said, we normally don't do contests...but aside from thinking Sam's a great ambassador for the senior dog community(and tripawd community!), I was intrigued that the winner gets the "cover shot" done by sarabeth photography. She is a local pet portrait person and an OUTSTANDING photographer. Her work is just heartbreakingly beautiful. I've had friends who had "Joy Sessions" with her, and they turned out gorgeous. There's no way I could ever afford her work, so if tehre's a chance to even have ONE picture done by her...I kind of jumped at it
So THANK YOU!

You got it! Remember keep posting here so it stays up top. And of course I voted again. I love easy peasy contests that don't require my life history and bank account information to vote!
