Bark in the Park 2010

Tuesday, September 21st, 2010

Crowd gathered at Bark in the Park,  North Conway, NHEvery September in North Conway, we have a wonderful fund raiser.  This year, Bark in the Park is September 25th at Schuler Park. Come join the many people and their favorite canine friends walking, playing and most importantly raising money for the Animal League of New Hampshire, North. This is a “no kill” shelter (they even save dogs and cats from other areas in the country), and funds are always hard to come by.

Personally, I have adopted two of the nicest cats from this facility and hope you can join us, or send what you can to help them.

Thank You!!

Supporting the Conway Area Humane Society

image002We have 3 cats and one dog, though we’re going to the shelter Sunday to see some new puppies that are coming in. I’d like a companion dog for our 5-yr-old. We had our dog run expanded this summer in anticipation of getting a 2nd dog. Our Golden died last summer – she was 13!

Each year we participate in “Bark in the Park” where we “Walk for the Animals” and raise money for the Conway Area Humane Society. This year’s Bark in the Park is September 26. Team Tarbell has been the top fundraising team for the last six years, and we intend to win again with your help. Our goal is to beat our previous record of $5,400 for the Conway Area Humane Society (CAHS).

As a Board Member for Starting Point, I am especially grateful for the CAHS working relationship with the area’s domestic violence organization, to house animals of abuse victims. Animal and child abuse go hand in hand. Suzette Indelicato, Executive Director of Starting Point, says, “Many people don’t make it to the shelter because they won’t leave their pets.” The CAHS, with a referral from Starting Point, will house the animal victims of an abusive situation while the family gets its life back on track. All such housing is secure and confidential. The owner is required to check in every two weeks for a situation update and to discuss future plans for both humans and companion animals. For more information about the Conway Area Humane Society shelter, visit www.conwayshelter.org.

Let your pets run on this beautiful 8.4 acres in Jackson NH.  I took Skye with me to the showing I did here last week and she had the BEST time romping all over the fields, woods, and through the trees. It’s well off the road and is perfect for pets. 8+ acres with amazing views. Perfect for dogs. Better for people.

"The Puss" Ariella's kitty

Well, it has been a week since we kicked off our fundraising campaign for the Conway Area’s Humane Society’s annual “Bark in the Park” fundraiser.

The checks and online donations have started coming in, and the Team Tarbell Terriers have raised $588 so far, 12% of our goal. With only 2.5 weeks left until the big day, we have a lot of work left to do!

We all our feeling the effects of a slack economy, but any money that you can contribute will really help the animals at the Conway Area Humane Society, even if it’s just 5$. Just click on button to donate!

Or mail a check made out to “CAHS” to

Join the Team Tarbell Terriers and Donate to the Conway Area Humane Society

walk-for-the-animals

For the past 12 years Joy Tarbell Realty has been participating in “Bark in the Park” the Conway Area Humane Society’s annual fundraiser. The Team Tarbell Terriers have been the top fundraisers for the past 6 years, and we hope to keep that tradition alive. To visit our donation site click here.

Those of you who have visited our office at the Scenic Vista in North Conway NH know that we are a very pet friendly office. Currently we have 3 resident cats (Hobbes, Polly, and Ginger) and a dog (Skye). Polly, Ginger and Skye are all former residents of the Conway Area Humane Society!

If you hadn’t guessed already, it helps to be an animal lover to work in our office. Aside from our adopted office pets (well they are actually Joy’s) several of the agents in our office have also adopted their pets from the Conway Area Humane Society. Suzie Laskin is a member of the Board of Directors for the Conway Area Humane Society, and her “Ella” is CAHS alumna as well.

ginger

Ginger is the feisty little 6 lb sweetie that we adopted on New Year’s Eve 2008, after being in a cage at the shelter for 7 months. She didn’t get along with the other cats so couldn’t be allowed in the cat social room. She’s doing fine with our cats now, though they all have their own “territories”.

Polly

Polly is our Gemini Twin from the constellation “Pollux”, though her brother “Castor” died of a tumor awhile ago. She’s the kisser and loves to be held close to your face.

Skye 2004

Skye was the first dog adopted from the dog house, 2 weeks before the dog shelter opened. She was left there at 8 weeks old and Joy came down and took her home that night. That was 5 years ago! Graduated at the head of her class in Obedience School.

The Graduate

Here’s Ella after her graduation from Obedience Training taught by Brian Ahearn of Four Your Paws Only. Ella was adopted from CAHS after she was transported here from a shelter in Kentucky where she would have been euthanized. Ella went to her forever home with Suzie Laskin where she’s been happily living with sister, Abby, a big black shaggy dog.

Cute little Abbycat is the newest addition to Bob and Rona’s family. She’s another CAHS alum, 8 months old. She loves Bucky and everything that sits on a countertop!

All of these animals, and countless others, are living proof of what an amazing job the Conway Area Humane Society does to rescue pets and find them new loving homes and owners.

We really hope that you can help us raise money and awareness for the animals by donating to the Conway Area Humane Society. It is really easy to do, and will only take you about 1 minute! Click on this link to get started: www.FirstGiving.com/TeamTarbellTerriers
