At Dog Daze, I spoke briefly with Terri Bondi of Underdogs. She told me that Discover Network / Animal Planet had contacted her, and asked that she send photos of all her available puppies to them. Animal Planet chose Sherman, Perky and 4 others to be TV STARS!! They are going to compete in the Puppy Bowl! Terri is working out the details on transport... even though the contact and invite came from Animal Planet, Underdogs is responsible for ALL travel expenses.
Many of you may wonder "why spend money on travel to New York City? That money could help how many animals right here?" Simple answer: exposure. Underdogs is Terri Bondi. Her adoption fees don't begin to cover her expenses. However, the opportunity for this little rescue from Fort Walton Beach, Florida to recieve NATIONAL exposure may help Underdogs get new supporters from across the USA.
And in happy / sad news, Perky and Sherman aren't with us anymore. They've both been adopted, together, by a nice family in Navarre. So I'm having a brief reprieve from my mop... until our next guests arrive!
