Castles in the Sand

My friends and I just did a Castles in the Sand Contest. That is where lots of people get together to make sandcastles to support the community. We participated in it for the first time on Saturday May 12th. We decided to make a dog family. We called our castle 'My Dog Digs!'. It was so much fun!

Sushi

Sushi is a sweet, gentle dog. She was found at a small airport where she had been hanging about for awhile. She became the office dog at the pound because she was so laid back and well behaved. Needless to say she gets along with dogs and lots of people. She is about 3 years old, 18 lbs and 12 at the shoulder. She has a short, black coat with white markings. Please contact her foster mom, Amy at: doggiedoou@hotmail.com for ALL information. This pet is up to date with routine shots This pet has been spayed. This pet is not housetrained. Sushi is located in Sharon, CT, which is in the NW corner of CT, near NY and MA. She must be seen and adopted there.

Simon

Simon is a 2½ year old Bull Terrier looking for love! Simon is extremely loving, playful, loyal, housebroken, and obedient. He is an energetic, goofy, affectionate guy who longs for a home where he will get plenty of exercise and attention. After a long walk or a play session, Simon is content to relax at home. Simon gets along with some dogs, but would probably do best in a home where he is the only pooch. He is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped for his new home.

 Simon is located at PAWS in Norwalk.

Shelter Dogs

With so many homeless animals being euthanized every year, it is critical to make sure that people get educated about how to help. That's why I am going to feature a certain shelter dog on my blog every time I do a post. Here is today's dog:

Effie

Meet Effie! She is a gorgeous and sweet Golden Retriever and Great Pyrenees mix. We think she is about 4 years old and weighs 72 pounds, although she is looks much bigger that that. She found herself at an Alabama shelter and since no one claimed her, they called AGK for help. Effie is healthy - besides some pretty bad teeth, which were recently cleaned - she is ready for her new home. She loves attention from people and appears to love everyone! She is good with dogs, cats and appears to be house trained. If you are interested in adopting Effie, please visit our website at www.adoptagoldenknoxville.org
Effie is located at Adopt A Golden in Knoxville TN.

Destination Imagination

Our Destination Imagination team won our State Competition yesterday! Destination Imagination is a program that teaches creativity, teamwork and problem solving to kids. They give you six different challenges to solve over the course of the year and the one we chose this year is called coming attractions. We had to create a movie trailer that involves characters from two nations and showcase their interactions. We also had to create a live special effect that fits in with our trailer. We won the state finals for Connecticut and now we are going to globals! -lily
