valentines for chained dogs
i'm going to point you toward gary's always-excellent blog today, because he shared some cool links to a fantastic organization and a great project: sending valentines to dogs that live outside on a chain. the valentines are often made by little kiddos, upping the adorable and heart-tugging factor, and i loved reading that several dogs were allowed to move inside after receiving a valentine.
i wasn't aware of this project until this afternoon, and now i'm sad that it's so late and i can't wrangle people into making valentines. i guess there's always next year (or hey, donations to help with postage and whatnot)!
in the meantime, if you know of a dog who lives outside, please jot down his or her address and submit it to dogs deserve better. maybe a valentine will change his or her life. thanks!

awesome campaign. thanks for posting about this!

Thanks for sharing this. I hate to see dogs chained up outside. My dog is part of the family. I'd never do that.
