Community Animal Network believes the cost involved in purchasing items for one night would be much better spent going to the animals who really need it.

 

Instead of spending hundreds of dollars to buy a dress or suit, shoes, and dinner for a typical cocktail fundraising event...

How Our Non-Event Fundraiser Auction Works

The bidding "starts" with the "minimum" amount of each auction item and will be received by the "highest" e-mail bidder received by February 1st 2005 at midnight. Bidding is done by e-mailing bid@animalnetwork.org and listing the description of the auction item and item number (ie: Art by Ivona Libuda  A-101) and in the text body type your bid numerically. The first e-mail received for the minimum or the first highest bidder will receive the auction item.    

Remember, this holiday event ends December 31st and the highest amount offered will be honored. The beneficiary of the item will be contacted via e-mail.  Auction Certificates may be mailed or picked up. Schedule larger auction items to be picked up, or a shipping and handling charge could be applied. 
 
We will be adding new items as new auction sponsors sign up. If you have a business or something you would like to give to support our efforts. E-mail auction@animalnetwork.org. Remember, the value or more may be given as a donation. It is really an opportunity for services, restaurants, artists a-like to be featured in exchange for their service, meal, or painting. The non-event items will be displayed on the site until we calculate and notify the recipient of the item. This way the fundraiser item will receive ample exposure for the retail value of the item.

 We want to encourage the "more" being given for each fundraising item.  The more money donated for each item the more animals C.A.N. will be able to save.  As you hopefully know we are constantly paying medical bills for the animals. Please help support our pro-quality life mission.

 

This holiday event ended December 31st.

Thank You!

DOG TRAINING  

 

From the Good Dog University: A full Dog Training Package Certificate

www.gooddoguniversity.com

If you have just added a new dog or puppy to your household, this training package is perfect for you. Having a new addition in your home is both exciting and a little difficult. With this great donation from the Good Dog University they can help you or someone you know make this transition much smoother and most importantly, in a loving way.

The foundation of Good Dog University’s puppy and dog training programs are grounded in rewarding favorable behavior (positive reinforcement) rather than punishing unwanted actions.

No two human families are alike; the same can also be said for your puppy or adult dog. Each dog or puppy training session or program will be specifically designed for your particular needs and taking into account your dog’s or puppy's age, sex, breed, temperament and of course, personality.

Owners Michael and Angela Grier do what they love most: working with pets and their human families. They merged this love and knowledge of pets with their corporate skills and built a premiere dog walking & pet sitting service.
