I was recently contacted by Happy Tails Books with a request that I help promote its cause. Since I love to do anything I can to aid rescue — of any breed or species — I pass the following information on to you in the hopes that this project grows and helps fund the wonderful dog rescue groups that abound these days. They all need help! If you have a good story about your rescue dog, please consider submitting it to these folks. Your contribution will turn into points — and funding aid! — at the end of the year.
Happy Tails Books publishes compilations of stories from people who have adopted dogs. Their breed-specific “Lost Souls: Found!” series showcases the love and joy these adopted dogs bring to their new homes in an effort to raise awareness of and funding for dog rescue organizations.
Happy Tails Books is currently working on books about Chihuahuas, German Shepherds, Pugs, Boxers and mixes thereof, and they’ve asked me to share their information in case you’d like to submit a story about your adopted dog(s). Guidelines and a submission form are located at http://happytailsbooks.com/submit.htm. You can send in a complete story about your dog (600-1200 words), a paragraph about something sweet or funny he/she did, a training/health challenge and how it was solved, a poem, or a recipe. They are also looking for high resolution, professional-quality photos for the front and back covers. Be sure to list the rescue you are associated with in the submission form (if applicable – dog don’t need to be from a rescue, they just can’t be purchased from a pet store or breeder), as rescues earn points from each story submitted or book purchased, and then the points turn into a donation at the end of the year.
