Blog the Change ~ An Opportunity for Inspiration

Make a fresh commitment to act on behalf of animals

                                                             Inspire others to do the same

                                                                      Spread the word

That is the criteria for participation in the Blog the Change Blog Hop. In visiting some of the blogs participating in this months blog hop, I was truly overwhelmed at the amount of people doing such great things to help animals and people of all kinds.

It was humbling, and trust me, as I am sure you know, I am not easily humbled.

 

I knew right away though who I would dedicate my post to.

I learned the other day, from  as I am sure many of you did, from Winston and Clementine over at Ladypugmugs, of an urgent need.

The folks over at Pug Lovers Rescue in Rock Hill SC, where Clementine came from, were hit very hard by tragedy.

 

 

 

One of their foster moms died unexpectedly and another was stricken with stage 3 breast cancer.

They have an urgent need to find foster homes for the seven dogs that these two women fostered between them.

What better a platform to reach out for help than Blog the Change. I know there are much larger organizations that could be highlighted, but this is a problem that could be solved today. If only a few, of the many people who participate in this blog hop were able to reach out and help with these seven pugs, we will have made a huge difference in those pugs lives. They lost the loving people who were caring for them until they found their forever homes. After already losing the places they called home.

You can learn all about these pugs who need help here.

Here is a little bit about each of them.

 

Mia 10/11 years old hard of hearing & has little eyesight, very small about 13-14lbs fawn

Mugsy male 9 years just needs a home not good with small children (picture of Mugsy below - he is a sweetie)

Obi & Anna Obi fawn no issues, Anna black bonded pair Oobie is the way it is pronounce

Katy little pug female blonde mix 4*5 years old

Molly 6 year’s old fawn female kind of shy

Roxy 7 years old fawn female was a breeder dog loving but scrappy

So please, take a moment, even if you can't do it, maybe you know someone who can. We are all so privileged with what we have. Today, I reach out to those who are  not.

Also, please take a moment to visit any of the posts here in the blog hop. There is so many inspiring stories out there.



Be the Change for Animals~ my submission

I learned about this Blog the Change from one of our honorary Sunflower "sisters" Pip.

It's a great idea, and I've decided to climb aboard and do my own post.

You can learn more about Blog for the Change for animals here. The basic premise is about raising awareness of animals in need by posting about people or organizations who are making a difference in animals lives. In doing this, you also commit to acting on behalf of animals.

Let's face it, we pugs and our people for the most part are aware of and active in some way in pug rescue.

I have decided to go outside my pug kingdom to highlight an organization of dedicated animal lovers who are doing amazing things for some of the most helpless animals in the world.

These people truly inspire me.

Through the love of animals and dedication to their cause, the people at Amazon Cares are really making a difference for the many many homeless, abandoned dogs and other animals in Peru.

They are a group of volunteer veterinarians, educators and animal lovers of all kinds. They provide care, spay and neutering, rescue and adoption services, and education to the people and animals in need.

You can see a trailer of the movie called Saving Fido here.

It highlights the incredible work they are doing.

Some of this stuff may not be easy to look at, but looking away doesn't make it go away.

Plus, there are many happy endings.

You can also read their blog and become a follower.

The more exposure organizations like Amazon Cares get, the more good they can do.

So, please take a moment to check these guys out.

I promise I'll get back to the light and fluffy Wilma's world next week. Must be hormonal...
