My Life In Blog Years

Sunday the 25th was the Seattle Humane Society's Walk for Animals, and my parents - along with Tucker and Finley - walked the event with Luna and me. I left Penny at home, figuring that handling one dog (while taking photographs) was going to be challenging enough. I made the right call, as there were over 1,500 dogs in attendance! I was totally ecstatic when late last night I received an email stating that I’d received one last donation from a family member. Turns out D (who is half way around the world on business) managed to hop online and send enough of a donation to help me reach my fundraising goal! So a big thanks to those who donated.

Are you ready for pictures? Here is the Golden gang.

We didn't stay too for long for FidoFest or for any of the contests as rain did eventually appear here in Seattle. All in all, it was a good walk for a great cause, and our three Golden’s got the opportunity to socialize and make new friends. I am happy that we were all able to participate in the event!

Today our challenge in the 31 Day Days to Building a Better Blog series is focused around writing a ‘list post’. The list post happens to be is a popular and effective tool among online writers who want to put out a lot of content quickly and effectively all while being persuasive, succinct, and without being boring.

So I am going to take this opportunity (while using a ‘list post’) and tell you about an event coming up in our neighborhood; The Seattle Human Society’s Walk for the Animals. This fun event is just around the corner (Sunday, September 25th), and here are a few reasons why we are so excited to be participating in this event!
