Your prayers and kind wishes must have helped because the puppy that I wrote about yesterday has made a miraculous recovery. She was bright eyed this morning, had eaten and taken water on her own during the night, and was wagging her tail like crazy. When I went to check on her this afternoon she had eaten all the food I left for her in her crate and wanted a bunch more. She seems like she will make a complete recovery. A happy ending! Thank you for all of your well wishes! Now she just has to get over her upper respiratory infection and she will be able to be made available for adoption.
Now, I am going to wish for some more happy endings, like tons of people coming to our event this Thursday night! If you are free, you have to come to our Giggles Fundraiser this Thursday night. Giggles Comedy Pub in the Sendik's Towne Center is hosting a fundraiser for us, doors open at 5:30 and the show starts at 7pm. I will be at the door greeting our guests. Tickets will be available at the door! We are going to have a great time!
Also, I need you to vote for us for the WISN A-List. It is not as simple as just clicking a button, but it is a really easy registration process. I get turned off immediately if there is a bunch of blanks to fill in to do something, but it was easy to do. You get an email to confirm that you are a real person, and then you click the link and you are done. We have been working really hard to get the word out about how great EBHS is, and this is just another way to have more people recognize our name and help support our beloved shelter. Here is the link to vote:

If we win, we will have a big party at the shelter to celebrate.
Some more great news is that we are welcoming the kids from Lad Lake back to the shelter. Lad Lake is a great organization out in Dousman that provides positive learning experiences for at-risk young men in our area. We have had some wonderful experiences with these kids and are looking forward to working with them again. They will be back on August 26 when school starts for them. The kids help us with cleaning in the morning and then work with the animals who need training and socialization. It is a win-win for all of us. It will be nice to have some more men around the shelter, as for some reason, most of our staff and volunteers are women.
This has been a great day! Thanks again for all of your wishes! I will post a picture of Minnie, the Parvo puppy as soon as I can!
