Just what IS
WRAPPING FOR WRESCUE
anyway?, you ask.
Barnes & Noble bookstores across the country offer FREE gift wrapping during the Howliday Season . . . and any charitable group can reserve time slot(s) to do the wrapping and keep the tips for its group.
Many breed rescue group members are participating in this fundraising project; here are their schedules. Stop by and say hello, bring a cuppa joe, or even help - everyone is welcome!
(If YOU are participating - no matter what Breed Rescue Group you are wrapping for - email me HERE to be included on this schedule website.)

We had a great day at the Barnes & Noble at Colonie Center, Albany, New York today. Thank you so much to the Rescue adopters, Airedale rescue supporters & members of the ARWNY team for your wrapping expertise.
Featured in the photo:
PAUL CLELAND (adopted Shadow); ALISON BIANCHI (adopted Baxter 2);
CAROL ATWATER (adopted Baxter 1); JEANNE PLAUTH (ADT Rescue Supporter);
SUZANNE CLELAND (adopted Shadow and was PetFinder.com Sleuth this year);
Mrs. BIANCHI (Rescue adopter from another branch of Airedale Rescue)
The following were not in the photo, but were there to help ARWNY:
RICH VALACHOVIC (Airedale Rescue Supporter); KAREN BROWN (ARWNY);
BARBARA & LIBBY GIOIA (adopted Daisy);
ANN CAPPOBIANCO (Airedale Rescue Supporter); LISA ASHTON (ARWNY)
A big THANK YOU to AMY MARINO, who made this doghouse
to serve as a tip jar. Very cute indeed.
JEANNE PLAUTH: The x-rays will be paid for Yvonne's foster, Karrie.
CHRISTINE SHEFFER: Thank you to everyone who helped with Wrapping for Wrescue. I'm impressed with your work and jealous to have not been there. And to imagine you did it all while managing [to get through] an ice storm - simply amazing. Thanks.
YVONNE MICHALAK: Wow! A big thanks to all who worked at Barnes & Noble for Wrapping for Wrescue! You are all amazing!
Karrie thanks you for thinking of her and her upcoming x-rays. By the way, her limp is almost non-existent now! We have taken her off the Tramadol and are waiting to see if it reoccurs. There is still some thickening and muscle atrophy in the shoulder, so the x-rays will still be necessary, but what a Christmas miracle for Karrie. Before last week, her leg was held up constantly. It is great to see her walking with full weight on it.
Yes, Karrie, there really is a Santa Claus - ARWNY!
DENISE LUCAS: Thank you all for your time and raising some much-needed funds for ARWNY.
CHRIS HALVORSON: Thank you for the historic photo of so much Aire-Power in the Albany area!Our breed is blessed with such good supporters. But then again, the dogs do give it back to us. Three cheers for all involved!
JEANNE PLAUTH: I think BIG THANKS go to Andréa Denninger who shared the idea in the first place, to Christine Sheffer who contacted the store and provided all the answers to fulfill their requirements to allow participation, and to Amy Marino who made the Dog House/Tip Jar. Christine will see the store manager receives a Thank You as well so we are welcome to return in 2009.
