Oregon Humane Society

• Mental Health: Physical exercise isn't always enough. Agility forces a dog to think, focus, and problem-solve, which reduces kennel stress and anxiety.
• Confidence Building: Mastering the climb over the A-Frame does wonders for a shy or insecure dog. It teaches them they can overcome obstacles (literally!).
• Adoptability: A bored dog can sometimes be a "naughty" dog. By burning off mental and physical energy on the agility course, our dogs present better to potential adopters. They are calmer, happier, and ready to show off their new tricks!

• Goal: $1800
• Usage: Purchasing an A-Frame, shipping costs, and installation

Oregon is burning, with over a million acres already on fire.

The Oregon Humane Society (OHS) is rushing to respond to the emergency across the state by: 

—Rescuing animals where possible through coordination with the Oregon Department of Agriculture,
—Partnering with other animal rescue organizations in the most impacted areas to transfer animals and free up room for others being rescued,
—Offering crates to fairgrounds to house and transport displaced or abandoned animals that cannot be evacuated with their families,
—Providing affected animals with food and shelter until they are reunited with their families, and
—Helping reunite animals with their families.

To raise money for this urgent cause, my brother Henri and I (from Portland, OR) will perform  and record roughly five pieces and post them Sunday, September 20th by 5 PM via our GoFundMe page and YouTube. These will include a violin/cello duet, some solos, and an unreleased song that I recently wrote and produced.

In honor of all the people and wildlife who are facing tragedy due to the fires, we appreciate any donation you are able to make. 100% of proceeds go directly to the Humane Society. Thank you, and stay safe!

Sheila and Marconi think animal abuser Des Hague should be fired. We’d like to raise money for other abused animals from people who agree with us.

The video above caught Centerplate CEO Des Hague in a brutal assault on his own dog. With friends like that, who needs enemies? Centerplate’s Board of Directors fined him $100,000 and ordered a thousand hours of community service. We’d like to raise $10,000 from dog and cat lovers everywhere who find this kind of behavior despicable and unacceptable. It will send a message to Centerplate Concessions that a $100,000 fine for a guy who makes $11.7 million a year is just a slap on the wrist. People in power shouldn’t be able to buy their way out of abuse. Do you agree? Good! Help us support the Oregon Humane Society, which finds loving homes for abused and neglected dogs and cats.
