Microchipping Comes to B&B!
 B&B is now able to microchip your dogs with AVID chips! We can do this any open house day/time. The cost is $25. If you have adopted a dog from us recently that is not chipped, there is no charge! Avid Microchips have been used to safely return lost dogs and get them home safely!

Announcing the "Special Friends Volunteer Program"
Some of our dogs are looking for Special Friends – friends who will help them get adopted!
We are looking for volunteers who are willing to work one-on-one with a dog who could use a little "coaching" to help them get adopted. If you are interested, you must have come to B&B as a regular volunteer at least 3 times before you can join this program.
B&B is a no-kill shelter. That means that sometimes a dog can be at B&B for years before the right person comes along to adopt it. The Special Friends program is all about helping these dogs find that special person a little sooner. To learn more about becoming a Special Friend to a dog in need click here...

We have just a few shirts left in (Size 3 = Med/Large).
Get your orders in now - once they're gone, they're gone!
 WEAR YOUR BEAGLE-LOVING HEART ON YOUR SLEEVE!
James Perse, famous clothing designer, now has a limited edition special BEAGLE t-shirt on sale in his retail stores only, and most are selling out as quickly as they come in. The company is not selling these shirts on-line or at Bloomingdales, Saks or Neimann-Marcus like the rest of the clothing line. This very cool creation is to celebrate Uno the beagle winning Best in Show - and to honor James' own beagle Charles. The best part is that ALL profits from the sale of these collectors items are being donated to B&B pooches!
The cost of each shirt is $60, plus $10 shipping.
A $2.50 transaction fee will be added to all online orders.

FUNDRAISER FOR PERLA DOG BEDS!
 We LOVE the Perla dog beds and could make use of any size. Ideally, we want every single dog (i.e. 150) to have either a Perla or Kuranda bed. One of our great volunteers have contacted the National Distributor of Perla Dog Beds and got us a super deal - much lower than we've found anywhere! We'd like to place one large order, so we're gathering "pledges" to order the beds. The sizes range from the small beds for little pooches at $8.75 to the extra large beds for our big buddies at $28.56. We won't know what shipping will be until we get the order together.
The Perla's price (especially with this special consideration) is great and they are very popular with the dogs. They're made of pretty much indestructible plastic with air vents in the bottom and plastic coin type inserts to make them non-slip. We don't ever need the more costly cushions because we are using the pillows you all have already donated! Get in on this Spring Shopping event for the dogs!
PAYPAL FOR PERLA'S!
Please donate whatever you are able to offer towards our Perla fundraiser. Your generous gift will go directly towards helping us put together a big enough order so that we can qualify for this excellent discount. Just click on the "Paypal Donate" button below to make your secure donation online now.
 We also like the Kuranda dog beds for our boarding facilities because they are so good for our dogs. Our dogs love to sleep on these beds, but we don't have enough for everyone. If you would like to donate a bed at a special wholesale price for a another dog to sleep in comfort, please click here.
The Kuranda website has made it easy for you to place an order for us, and they will ship the beds to us directly... donating has never been this simple!

Our Wishlist!
We're hoping some of our friends will come through with these much needed gifts:
- Photographer: We need a volunteer who can take good pictures of our dogs once a week for about an hour. We need you to use a digital camera and be able to email the photos to us so that we can add them our website.
- Special people to give permanent, foster and sponsored homes to our Special pooches
- Kuranda dog beds
- Treadmills: In good working order please. Electric is preferred so dogs of all weights/sizes/physical condition
can use them (though the treadmills specifically designed for dogs are frequently manual). We can use any treadmill built in the last 10 years, with a preference for electric folding types.
- Towels (used, all sizes & lots of 'em please!)
- Sturdy dog toys
- Kong balls
- Used bedroom pillows and cases
- Used comforters we can cut into doggie blankets
- Vari-kennels (all sizes)
- 6x6x6 chain link runs - (need about 4)
- Spare change to buy all these things and much more!
- Volunteers: (we always need you!)
P.S. Most of all, each and every pooch here would love the gift of a family to call their own! Would you sponsor, foster or adopt?
