Treats: Enviro-Pouches For Pooches
***This treat isn’t taking entries anymore. Sorry people.***
I hear you people-y types like free things – so here goes nothing (though I highly recommend being a dog, we don’t pay for anything).
Bags can be bad, like when we are shoved in them. Bags can also be good, like when you clean up after us with them. But when Rocco’s mom over at Envirosax told us about their promotion with the ASPCA this month, I realized that bags can be really good.
Not just because they’re reusable, but because Envirosax is donating $1 for every pouch sold in November to the ASPCA to help pets who aren’t as lucky and Rocco and me.
So Rocco and his momma wanted to spread the word by letting me give a free pouch (that’s 5 whole bags!) to THREE different animal lovers out there, kinda like my parents did a few months ago on their blog. And since they’ve already got this giveaway thing down, I recruited them to help me with this next part…
- THE TREAT: A 5-bag pouch of Envirosax, any design from their graphic series (check them out, they’re super cool)
- TO ENTER: Leave me a comment on this post saying “TREAT ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …I’d love to hear any good stories you have about rescuing your pet or otherwise doing something nice for us animals out there. Every little bit helps, so here’s your chance to brag.
- GIVEAWAY ENDS: Wednesday, November 4, 2009 at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Three lucky humans (or dogs who like to grocery shop)
- ELIGIBILITY: Pouches can be shipped to the US and Canada
- DETAILS SCHMETAILS: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!
I follow the same giveaway policies as my parents, so get more info on their Giveaway FAQs page. Images courtesy of Envirosax.

TREAT ME!
Amos Moses, who is…you know…the love of my life (but don’t tell my husband!) is a rescue mutt. He didn’t come from the ASPCA but a local foster care organization that scooped him and his siblings out of a high kill shelter. The litter was found without a mom or dad so we have no clue as to what he is (besides his german shepard markings, but they don’t match his plume of a tail), except that he is the biggest cuddle bug and was made just for our family!

We didn’t actually “rescue” our Chihuahua Paco…but we love him like he is our child.

TREAT ME…please!

My brother has the most amazingly sweet pitbull named Max that he rescued as a puppy. Before he got him, I was definitely a “hater” when it came to that breed of dog. However, he is one of the sweetest, most docile dogs I have ever encountered. That’s why I make sure I donate time and $$ to my cousin’s dog rescue organization. They take strays and other dogs who have been subjected to dog fighting and rehabilitate them. It’s an amazing cause and I’m glad to be a part of it.

I volunteer for the local SPCA to help animals in need, and I make sure my own pup has enough lovin’ as well. I love animals, so there’s plenty of love to go around :)

Hubby and I adopted our two cats from a local animal rescue. They’re both older cats with rough histories (one was abused, the other found nearly starved to death in a snowbank). But they’ve turned out to be the sweetest cats who want nothing more than a little love, food and a warm place to sleep. I like to think that we’re helping make up for the harm they suffered early on, by babying them a little now.

We rescued our pooch from a breeder who never sold him as a puppy and just kept him in a dog run. He never had much human contact until we got him when he was over a year old, so he was pretty unsure of our world and would hide in closets. 7 years later, he’s loving life and we treat him like he’s our first born!

I rescued my cat not once but twice out of a live trap.
TREAT ME…while recovering from mouth surgery, i woke one morning to find a crane fishing in our koi pond. i rang my bell (without being able to shout, it was the only way for me to get attention in my bedroom) to wake my mom and told her “the ish! sabe the ish!” while gesturing out the window. She was able to run out side in time to save one of our fish from being carried off by the 3ft crane.

We rescued our cat, Bindhi, on our 1 year anniversary as our gift to eachother. The poor baby had parasites and was stuck in a cage right next to the room with all the dogs at the animal shelter. The barking was deafening. She tried to rub her head on us from inside the cage, which got my husbands attention. When we got her out of the cage, she melted like butter in our arms. She is the sweetest little addition to our family!

About two months ago, I found a stray dog outside of my office. It gets hot in Alabama, so I brought him inside, gave him some water, and then designed some posters to put up in the neighborhood saying we had found the dog. No one responded, so one of my coworkers adopted him!

We got our 8 year old rat terrier last year from a shelter. She was in rough shape- our humane society got her from a puppy mill where she was used for breeding :( She has come a long way and I wouldn’t trade her for the world!
TREAT ME!! I was already planning on purchasing these for Chistmas presents!

My two cats came from the Parkersburg, WV shelter the same week a puppy farm in the area was broken up and all the dogs, over 1000, had to be processed and then shipped out to other area shelters for adoption. All were pure bread and as far as I know all found homes. My boys had to have all their shots repeated because the shelter lost their paperwork in all the confusion, but I know they are happy to have a loving home and glad that all the dogs found good homes also, including cousin Sophie, a yorkie.
Treat me! We rescued two wonderful kitties 5 years ago. One was scheduled to be put down because she’d been at the shelter so long. She is so sweet and loving (and an attention hog) that I can’t imagine life without her.

TREAT ME!! (please!! I’ll do a trick!)
I have a dog and a cat. My boyfriend insisted we get an 8 week old puppy for our first dog so we could raise her from scrach, and I wanted a Puggle, so after looking for a year, we could not find one in a rescue. But our next will be a rescue, you can count on that!
Our cat, Mr. Face, wandered into our lives a few years ago on one of the few snowy nights Georgia ever sees. A man was walking and a cat was following him, and he said, “I have to get rid of this cat tonight or else my dog will kill him, they have been fighting non stop and the dog keeps getting him at the throat.” So we took him in, hoping to save the kitty’s life. We still have our ornery cat Mr. Face, and he is still big, black, and grumpy after all these years :D
Treat me!!
Walking my puppy each nite is a favorite evening ritual for both of us.
