CINCINNATI AND SOUP at STROLL FOR STRAYS

We are happy to announce that Oscar 9 the peluxecincinnati.com mascot who was our four legged "stroller" for the CINCINNATI AND SOUP team- completed the 1 mile stroll first ! This was a big deal for his short little legs.. and we were very proud of him. Here is his picture at the finish line. There is still time to donate to the CINCINNATI AND SOUP team at the Humane Assn .of Warren Co. website- through this week.

Stroll for Strays- Join Our team!

Hope that you are doing your part for animal rescue in your area. We here at Mac Guffin Productions are actively helping out the great places which help place dogs and cats in our part of Ohio.
Oct. 6 is the Stroll for Strays at the Humane Assn of Warren County. 9:30 a.m. Registration opens. CINCINNATI AND SOUP is forming up a team NOW .We are also accepting "Virtual Strollers" -those who don't choose to walk in the event but MAY donate to it. We would appreciate your help on this . Info on Stroll for Strays: www.homelesspets.org/ ( The Humane Assn. of Warren County)

At the present time we are going to be walking with "OSCAR" the mascot from www.petluxecincinnati.com, THE pet information site in Cincinnati. ( If you aren't signedup for their newsletter you are missing great ideas for dogs and cats!) As Oscar is a miniature poodle he will be only up to the 1 mile walk- you can walk 2 or 3 miles on Sat. Oscar is "in training"now for the walk doing 1 mile every day to "get in shape" ! By the way , Oscar IS a rescued dog and is happy to be one. Hope to see you on Saturday and hope that your home and
heart has room for a shelter or rescued dog or cat . They are waiting for YOU now!
See  you on Saturday !

Wine and Whiskers

 

Thought I would give you all a "heads up" on WINE AND WHISKERS, which is a great wine, craft beer AND bourbon tasting  event for the League for Animal Welfare in Cincinnati, Sept. 29, 2012. This is an "advance ticketed" event ONLY so you have to  pre-register at the League for AnimalWelfare website: www.lfaw.org/ CINCINNATI AND SOUP will have some of our decorator prints at the silent auction so this is a great time to pick some up as holiday gifts and help LFAW  care and feed their rescued dogs and cats.
Got an event coming up?CINCINNATI AND SOUP/MAC GUFFIN PRODUCTIONS would like
