Bandit is having a great summer

Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks??

Bandit, the white-faced senior golden retriever that Friends of Flicka is sponsoring at RAGOM is learning all kinds of new things at his foster home and having a blast. He's not likely to win a "Dock Dogs" competition for longest leap, but it's clear from his photo that he is having fun.

Read more about Bandit at the RAGOM website posting dedicated to him.

Another HFL update on Megan & Piper

A note and photos from Home for Life Sanctuary regarding the dogs we sponsor.

Thank you for your sponsorship of Megan and Piper.

This month we present photos taken by Butch McCartney, a professional photographer here in the Twin Cities. Please see his website at www.photographybymccartney.com to see more photos of the HFL animals, read his blog and see other great photos exhibiting Butch's range and talent. We have enlisted Butch as well as several other professional photographers to help us with the sponsor photos each month. We hope you enjoy the photos and also the difference in their creative styles capturing the personality of the HFL animals.

MEGANBy now we hope you have received the spring newsletter. Please let us know if you are missing your copy or if you would like an extra copy to share with a friend. The "Virtual" Home for Life webcams will be operational soon. The high speed and powerful internet access and connection is a bit elusive in the rural area where HFL is located so we are in the process of working out the technical difficulties to get the system operating consistently to make viewing available.

PIPER
Tour season at HFL has commenced and we hope to see many of you this summer for a visit at the sanctuary. Our tours are scheduled each Wednesday and Saturday at 1:30 pm; please call or e-mail to make an appointment for a visit. Don’t forget about our open house that is scheduled this summer for Saturday, August 22. We are combining the open house with the Ride for Their Lives Motorcycle Run and Memorial Garden event so there will be something for everyone that day.

Sincerely,

Lisa LaVerdiere
Executive Director
