It's Almost Time!

We hope that you are listening with both ears, not like the pup in this cartoon, when we remind you that it's almost time for the 6th Annual Golf Tournament and Auction. 

While we have a sold out event for Golfers, we invite you to come out and meet the dogs as well as shop for great items at our Buy It Now and Silent Auction tables.  We really do have something for everyone's taste.

Dinner reservations need to be in by tomorrow!

Please come and join us for a fun filled day.

Legends of Golf: Lee Elder Signed Giclee

IMPACT! Out of the Sandtrap

We are amazed and honored to be able to offer, at the upcoming Silent Auction,  a Mimi Stuart signed and numbered giclee of Lee Elder, one of the Legends of Golf.

In the words of art reviewers her work "vibrates with color" and "excels in clear design and graceful lines." The Alameda Journal stated that"Stuart's Art sparkles like Champagne."

Ms. Stuart w/ Smithsonian Curator

New York Artist Mimi Stuart is known for her signature style with its bold lines and colors. Ms. Stuart focuses on the Energy of the Subject (EOS). Ms. Stuart trained at the Art Center in Pasadena after graduating from UC Berkeley. Earlier schooling in Spain and Germany and travels in tropical countries inspired her love for vivid colors.

Her  “Walking on Diamonds” is featured in the Smithsonian's "High Art" Exhibition (Smithsonian Acquisitions).

The minimum bid for this giclee is $800.  If you can't make it to the Auction and would like to bid on this fabulous giclee, please submit an Absentee Ballot, prior to the Tournament.  For more information on how to submit an Absentee Ballot, email golf4dogs@gmail.com

This is Love!

Syrin and her human brother

Lucky Syrin  was adopted into a family who saw and helped her reach her potential.  Syrin and her family (including loving grandparents) couldn’t be happier.   

 

They recently sent us this picture showing Syrin with her new human baby.  They confirmed what the picture reflects - Syrin loves her little brother and he loves to watch her.  Her human parents took their time to find their canine addition but believe it was worth it – “Syrin’s a fantastic dog.  She loves to come lay in the bed with all of us on Saturday mornings as our baby tells us stories.”   

We love Happy Tales!  Share yours with us. 

You are invited to meet some of our terrific alumni and foster dogs at the upcoming Golf Tournament and Auction.
