Humane Society Pick of the Week 9/26

We have a lot of exciting information this week! Lets start with our lovable pick of the week Onyx. He is a neutered black lab about 7 months old. This guy has a lot of energy and would be a great hiking, swimming, or work out buddy. Let's help Onyx find his forever home! You can visit him online at www.utahhumane.org or in person at their facility.

Some exciting things are happening this weekend. On Friday the 28th Utah's Hogle Zoo is hosting an adoption event. The admission into the event is free, but zoo admission is still required. The event goes from 10-4 PM and you can find it just east of the main entrance. Come join our local adoption agencies and spread the word so we can find these animals good homes!

Our next big announcement is our Art Eco Utah craft sale! We will be joining some of our supporters Saturday the 28th and selling some of our artwork! Remember, we donate 40% of our proceeds to conservation, shelters, and more. So with every piece we sell we are helping make changes to better our world. You can preview some of our designs at www.art-eco-utah.com and even look at our online shop! Help us make an impact this Saturday at 2528 Alden St. in Sugarhouse Utah.

Strut your Mutt 2012 Review

My Great Pyreneese (Lucy) and I

Bernese Mountain Dog

Cooling off after a 1 mile walk!

Going with the flow!

Cami, Cameron, and Lucy
We had an amazing time today at the Salt Lake City Strut your Mutt event! The event was very well organized, we were able to sign in and get ourselves geared up in our event T-shirts quickly. The one mile walk around Liberty Park was so much for dogs and owners. Lucy was  very happy to make so many new friends! The turnout for the event was amazing, to see so many people coming together to help save shelter animals. We have currently raised about 61% of our goal for Salt Lake but there is still time to get your donations at http://www.strutyourmutt.org/ After the walk we were directed to areas filled with booths contests, and live music. Lucy was a runner up for "Dog with the Biggest Head" contest! We got to network with a bunch of groups passionate about similar things as us. After some face painting and free merchandise we headed home. We would like to thank Best Friends Animal Society and No More Homeless Pets for allowing us to be a part of such a good cause.

Isle Of Dogs Treat Review

Let me introduce you to my three wonderful dogs!

Jack-Border Collie Age 9

Albert- Australian Shepherd Age 4

Lucy- Great Pyrenees Age 4


I have recently purchased some wonderful treats at PETCO for my three dogs in hopes that they would enjoy them. My dogs tend to be picky but I wanted to buy a healthier alternative and find something to help a few of their problems. We purchased the Isle of Dogs Joint, and Smile treats to help with our aging dogs and keep their teeth and gums healthy. To my surprise all three of my dogs loved them! I had to break them in half for Lucy to chew but they were a big hit! I can now feel good about what I am giving my dogs since they are made with high quality ingredients. We will be buying these for a long time to come.

Soldier Hollow Sheepdog Classic!


Yesterday we got to spend a lot of time watching the strong connection between dogs and their owners at the sheepdog championship. The entry price was very reasonable and there was a lot of entertainment for everyone. We began our day with watching some amazing dogs herd sheep. It takes a lot of patience for both dog and owner to be able to complete this challenge. No matter how skilled a dog may be we found that sometimes the sheep will just not cooperate!

After the herding event we watched the splash dogs compete to jump the furthest. Dogs of all breeds were able to get a chance to show off their abilities. The excitement of the animals kept spectators at the edge of their seats! We had an incredible time watching these dogs doing what they loved.

Vendors of all types had showed up from artists and jewelers to sanctuaries with adoptable animals. We got to see the friendly staff from Willow Creek Pet Center, (we have taken our pets there for emergency help and are very satisfied with their facility!). We also fell in love with some of the animals from Friends of Animals Utah, a particular favorite was Hercules.

We were thrilled when we got to meet the beautiful dogs from Pawsatch Snow Dogs. The owners happily introduced us to all of their sled dogs and did an exciting demonstration of their teamwork. We got to learn about the different positions and importance of the placement of each dog on the line. They also told us about how they got some of their rescue dogs. It is always good to hear the stories of dogs finding their forever homes. We would like to thank Neal Bowlen and everyone else from Pawsatch for the great experience!
