1) Inaugural Issue of The Woof Pack Times Newsletter



================================================



Welcome to the inaugural issue of our new information tool

for our preferred clients. Every month you will receive a

new issue of The Woof Pack Times Newsletter, packed with

information about the company, important information about

the pet world, or vital information about pets in general.



I am offering this to you as a courtesy to help maintain a

healthy and happy relationship with your animals. And this

is a completely fr*ee service to you as a preferred client.



If, after reading over the newsletter, you do not feel that

it will help you with your animals, you may unsubscribe

at any time. Directions are at the bottom of the newsletter.

But, I am sure that after reading our newsletters, you will

find them to be valuable to you and your pets.



Every day I seem to learn something new, and I want to be

able to pass my education along to you, so you can have the

best possible life with your dogs, cats, horses, or other

family members.



We all love our pets, and we want what is best for them. I

want to be able to help you give what is best for them too,

because all of us at The Woof Pack deeply care for all the

critters we take care of.



And, if you have questions that you need answers to, please

write us with your question and we will try to answer all

questions that we can. And if I do not know the answer, I

will find someone who does know the answer. It is all about

you and your favorite pets.



Instructions for sending in inquiries are further down in

the newsletter.

2) Have Dinner on Me



=================================================



It is time for a contest! And this is such an easy contest

to enter, and it will only take a few minutes of your time.

If you can send an email (of course you can) then you can

enter this contest to win $25.



Now, I could just give you cash, but that is pretty boring,

don't you think? What I have in mind is dinner on me. Sure,

you are saying to yourself, where can I eat for just $25,

and what about my family?



Well, this might not feed an entire family of four, but it

should easily cover two people. I am talking about Sweet

Tomatoes. If you have never eaten there before, let me tell

you that it is vegetarian. But it is so very good.



They offer a ton of salad, fresh pastas, breads, soups, fruits

and dessert... oh, and it is "all you can eat!" I absolutely

love this place... and I love meat! It is at Walnut and Paseo

Padre in Fremont.



Now, how do I enter, you may ask? It is easy. Just send me an

email with the birthdates of your animals. I know some of you

have just one, and some of you have more, but this is still an

easy thing to do.



I am holding the contest until July 10th, so you need to find

that information and enter as soon as possible. At 7PM on

July 10th, I will call the contest officially over, and put all

the names of the contestants in a hat (yes, in a hat) and draw

out the winner. The winner will be contacted on July 11th, and

they will receive the $25 gift card for Sweet Tomatoes.



Get your entries in now, and cross your fingers.

3) Take Your Dog to Work Day



======================================================



Sorry cat owners, but there is no take your cat to work day.

Maybe some day.



I want to let you know that Friday, June 23 is the annual

Take Your Dog To Work Day. As a member of Pet Sitter's

International, I am including the official press release from

PSI to explain the whole event. I know this is somewhat short

notice, but there is still plenty you can do.

TAKE
YOUR DOG TO WORK DAYÆ 2006 Aims to Bring

Businesses, Shelters and Pet Sitters Together for Dogsí Sake



KING, NCóOn June 23, 2006, Pet Sitters International will

host its 8th Annual Take Your Dog To Work DayÆ event. Modern

Dog magazine, Magna Hospitality Group and PETS 911 have joined

PSI in its effort to bolster pet adoptions from shelters,

humane societies and rescue groups and educate the public on

the benefits of responsible pet ownership.  

 

Pet Sitters International, the creator of the day, is asking

businesses around the world to allow employees to bring their

well-mannered dogs to the office on Take Your Dog To Work Day.

The celebratory event is intended to promote the human-animal

bond by facilitating positive interactions between dogless

co-workers and their colleaguesí canine companions. However,

there is much more to this annual festival of dog than simply

celebrating manís and womanís best friend.



ìTake Your Dog To Work Day is about confronting the realities

of pet overpopulation in a positive and proactive way,î states

PSI President Patti Moran. ìPeople bringing their dogs to work

in celebration of Take Your Dog To Work Day can make a huge

difference in pet adoptions around the world.î Moranís company,

PSI, which represents approximately 7,500 independent professional

pet-sitting businesses, says developing partnerships between

businesses, animal shelters and pet-care professionals is key to

the success of the day. The educational organization is asking

participating businesses to open their doors to shelters, animal

rescues and PSI members on June 23, in addition to allowing pets.

ìAll dogs, especially those without loving caregivers, deserve

good homes,î says Moran. ìBy working together, we can make a

better day for dogs everywhere.î  



Anyone desiring to learn more about TYDTWDay or how to participate

can visit PSIís Web site www.petsit.com and download one of three

free information packs. Each information pack comes with support

materials as well as helpful tips and articles designed to help

businesses, animal shelters and professional pet sitters work

together in supporting the June 23 adoption effort.

 



Additionally, PSI has added two new links to the TYDTWDay Web page

to help participants get the most out of their dog day. ìPETS 911

has joined our TYDTWDay effort, allowing visitors to access their

shelter pet adoption locator from the TYDTWDay home page,î says PSI

spokesman John Long. ìWe have also placed a link to PSIís Pet Sitter

Locator enabling businesses to locate available PSI volunteers to

assist with their events.î Long adds that he is expecting record

participation from businesses, animal shelters and PSI members for

this yearís event.



# # # #



So get out there and get your business to participate in this day

to celebrate dogs and all animals. If you own your own business,

let your employees bring their dogs to work, and have a picnic,

while celebrating the joys of having a dog... or two, or three...
