Raffle for Theo Still On but Not for Long

We are still selling raffle tickets - Grand prize is 2 opening night tickets to the Washington Ballet's Nutcracker Dec 10 at the Warner Theater in DC. Other items listed below. Tickets are $5 - buy one, buy 10!

Why is the ChipIn widget at $0? Thanks to your help, we have raised over $600 which covers the cost of Theo's cardiology vet appointment thru Firstgiving.com. You don't see these funds on the widget any more becuase we've changed from a Firstgiving widget to a ChipIn widget. Be the first to buy your raffle on our new widget! We know that Theo's raised over $600 but it that $0 is so depressing to see! A big wet dog kiss to all of you who have contributed already!

Now that Theo's vet bill is covered, Theo is helping other dogs:

Bryan - this sweet runt seemed to have trouble walking with very bowed back legs so he needed to see an ortopedist for an evaluation. Thankfully, no defects were found and now that he's in a new home, eating well and getting lots of exercise, he is thriving. See Brian in his new home: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NrCTxSXJMbw
But Homeward Trails still has his vet bill to pay.

Elaine - this lovely dog has heartworm and we need funds to cover the cost of her heartworm treatment.

Besides the Washington Ballet tixs, here are the other great prizes you could win:

*Certified Reiki Master and Teacher Amanda Johnston has kindly donated a free Reiki session! ($75 value). For more on Reiki and Amanda, visit http://www.pathtoreiki.com/. This session can be arranged at the winner's and Amanda's convenience and will take place at Woodley Park Yoga, across the street from the Woodley Park-Zoo metro in Washington, DC.

*Homemade candy (from a super talented caterer friend)*A private yoga lesson (from an awesome teacher who loves Theo--she can't adopt him bse she already has two beautiful pups)

*A collection of cookbooks signed by the authors (from a woman who has never even met Sweet Boy Theo, but reads his blog and knows how great he is. And no, it's not my mom)

*Homemade lipbalms and fair-trade African soap (a very, very talented makeup artist friend)

*A pass for 5 free yoga classes at the amazing Woodley Park Yoga (a $75 dollar value)

*A cool quilted purse with a sweet butterfly necklace
