K9 Kindness Rescue

We will be at Moline Petco, for PetCo’s National Adoption Weekend Event on Saturday, July 23, from 11 A.M. to 3 P.M.

Stop on out, and meet some of the fur-kids up for adoption!

Due to rain, and heat — the Bier Stube event which was originally scheduled for June 12 has been postponed.

The event will now be held Saturday, July 17, 2010.

In addition, the PetCo Adoption Day has been changed from June 26 to June 19 at the Moline PetCo.

These pics are the second wave from the 2010 Doggie Wash & Karnival, and are courtesy of the Blue Buffalo Company. Thanks again for the support guys!

Well, May 22 has come and gone, and what a turn out this year! It was certainly a lot of fun to see everyone’s shining smiles and faces on an absolutely gorgeous Saturday afternoon at the Moline PetCo — and it was simply that as well! What an awesome day for a fundraiser in the parking lot!

A very special and wholesome thanks goes out to our sponsors, Blue Buffalo, Moline PetCo, Red Hot Brian Scott & Tony Tone in the A.M., B100, and The Shirt Shop. We could not have done this without you guys, and it was a killer time!

An extra thanks to our vendors: P.A.W.D., Brown Dog Foundation, AAVENGE, Tails ‘R’ Wagin’,  Barks & Beaks, Frankz Photography, Animal Aid, Kings Harvest, and doggy chiropractor, Dr. Liz McConnell.

Also, a HUGE THANKS to the following folks for donations that made this year’s event a success:  Bi-State Barricade, HyVee, Necker’s Jewelers,  and Blue Buffalo Pet Food.

Another huge thanks to PetCo for hosting us and to Best Buy and Famous Footwear in Moline for allowing us to use their store front and parking areas! 

In the spotlight for the event:
Debra Fraker, Tracy Fierro, Teresa Azure, John Hancock, Maria Salata, Red Hot Brian Scott, Cindy VanLandegen, Matthew Bierman, Nancy Nehlsen, Michael Fraker, Jeff Struve, David Necker, Anthony Peoples (& News Channel 8 – WQAD), News Channel 4, The Quad City Times, Cumulus Broadcasting, Nehlsen Communications, Jim Sitter & The Blue Buffalo Company, and Pet Cancer Awareness Foundation, and the folks at Brown Dog Foundation – and more.

Thanks to everyone’s help and pulling together we raised a total of $2,494.85.

Way to go everyone!
