Great Guys Support Great Cause

"Big Tom" couldn't of been more excited than to have David Backes from the St. Louis Blues Hockey team and Mark Buerhle from the Chicago White Socks at our fundraiser for C.A.R.E. this past week. David and his gorgeous wife Kelly do so much to help cats and dogs in need of forever homes. They are champions of animals and work tirelessly for these precious animals. Mark Buerhle ( the 21st pitcher to ever pitch a perfect game) is always one to lend his celebrity to a worthwhile cause. "Big Tom" who is a self proclaimed sports nut was truly in heaven having two such athletics in our home helping raise money for a wonderful rescue. Thanks David and Mark for not only helping out your furry friends but making Tom's day....oh hell who am I kidding making his BUCKET LIST COMPLETE. We raised over $12,000.00 for the second year in a row for a local rescue/shelter. Thanks to well over 100 friends who attended and supported such a fabulous cause.A big shout out also goes out to Bobbi Smith who has written over 50 best selling romance novels and signed her books and sold them the evening of the event and gave 100% of the money to this rescue. Bobbi you continue to have a heart the size of Texas. I feel blessed to call you my friend !!! Don't forget to get your next pet from a local shelter. ADOPT... DON'T SHOP as 90 % of the dogs sold from Pet Stores are coming from Puppy Mills. 40% of the dogs sold in Pet Stores throughout the United States are coming from Missouri Puppy Mills.
