It’s National Mutt Day. Shower your furry friend with some extra love today. Here are some ideas: Spoil your pup: Give your dog an extra long walk, break out their favorite toy, or whip up a special doggy treat. Donate to your local shelter: Many shelters rely on donations to care for homeless pets. A donation in your mutt's name is a great way to honor mixed breed dogs. Volunteer at a shelter: If you have some free time, consider volunteering at your local animal shelter. You'll get to spend time with some amazing dogs and help them find their forever homes. Spread the mutt love online: Share a photo of your adorable mutt on social media using #NationalMuttDay and spread awareness about the wonders of mixed breed dogs. #DogsAreFamily #DogLover #DogsAreTheBest #CanineLover

We need your help to continue our mission at Badass Animal Rescue. Myself and my husband have 2 rescue dogs who are the light of our lives. There are so many dogs in need, and every contribution, no matter the size, has a direct impact on the lives of at-risk dogs. Not only do your donations provide necessary medical care and rescue operations, but they also offer these amazing Badasses a second chance at life. Anyone who has a dog will know the love and joy they can bring into our lives - please help us give more dogs a chance! How You Can Help Donate: Every contribution, big or small, has a direct impact. Your donation goes toward immediate needs like medical expenses, foster care supplies, and rehabilitation programs. Share: Help us reach a wider audience by sharing our page on your social media, via email, or through word of mouth. The more people who know about our cause, the more support we can garner. #BadassAnimalRescuePawToPawChallenge

✋🏼PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE✋🏼 Last week I spoke about how proud I was to be part of IAPWA and how, without a huge Marketing Budget, we passionately created a campaign, out of kindness and belief in this cause. What I didn't mention is that I volunteer for IAPWA. Yes I have a 'title' that may suggest otherwise, but the truth is, most of our small team are made up from volunteers, kindly giving up precious hours in their week who have joined our tribe and tirelessly working to provide a brighter future for animals 🙏🏼 I also mentioned how powerful 'Word Of Mouth' was as a tool to get a positive message out to an audience. Being honest, that backfired on me! Why? Well no-one spread the IAPWA word. 🤯 In a world where we are overwhelmed with social content, its easy to understand why people scroll on by or algorithm's don't always go in your favour. Let's face it, without money to throw into advertising, it is tough! But you won't see IAPWA doing TV ads, sending postal updates, giving you a cuddly toy.. Even if we did have the money, we still wouldn't, because that money can go direct to the animals in need and thats exactly what we do. With IAPWA your donation is invested directly into animals in need today and in building a brighter future for animals tomorrow. If you have read this far..THANK YOU.. I am almost done! ☕️Can you spare £2.31 a week (less than a shop brought coffee)? Or 📣Can you help us spread the IAPWA word? Either will take less time out of your day, than it did to read this, but we would be eternally grateful for your kindness. Help me restore faith in 'Word of Mouth'

Did you know that in the UK your dog must have two forms of identification on them? 🆔 In line with the Control of Dogs Order 1992 their tag must have the owner's name, address, and postcode engraved onto a tag. It is also recommended that you put your phone number on there as well and never put your dog's name on their tag as this could increase the chances of strangers calling them over and potentially dog knapping them!  You could be charged with a £5,000 fine if you’re found not complying with this piece of legislation so it's important to make sure your dog always has some form of physical ID on them as well as ensuring their microchip details are up to date in case they ever get lost.   #identity #dogs #safety #charity #awareness

Email #2 is my favorite! Take a look at the Welcome Email series I recently set up for an animal welfare nonprofit. This sequence is designed to build a deeper connection with new donors, showcase how their donation will be used, and introduce them to the lives they will change. I hope this inspires you to create a welcome sequence of your own. Was this helpful? Let me know in the comments! #fundraising #fundraiser #nonprofits #nonprofit #nonprofitmarketing #nonprofitleaders

For many, pets are family, and dog owners often wonder, "Can I claim my dog on my taxes?" The answer is yes, but only in specific cases. While you can't list your pet as a dependent, the IRS allows certain pet-related deductions. These include: -Business animals -Service animals -Performance animals -Foster pets -Donations to pet-based charities You may be able to deduct the costs of acquiring, training, and caring for these animals as business or medical expenses, helping to offset the financial burden of owning a working pet. #PetTaxes #IRS #TaxDeductions #PetOwners #ServiceAnimals #FosterPets #BusinessAnimals #PerformanceAnimals #PetCharity #TaxTips
