After editing Dog Blessed: Puppy Mill Survivior Stories a compelling book published by Happy Tails Books last year, I started thinking about how I could do more to raise awareness about puppy mills and to help animal rescue organizations. What I came up with was the Don't Kill Bill Show, a 90-minute, emotional experience of aerial fabric performances, music about rescued dogs, and 11 unforgettable stories about adopted dogs of various breeds from the Lost Souls Found book series.
I performed the first show in my hometown of Boulder, Colorado, on February 12th to 250 people. Each person left entertained, educated, and inspired. Thirty local rescue organizations were in attendance, and I know for a fact that some show attendees signed up to volunteer with some of them as a direct result of the show.
"Thanks for a heartwarming, wonderful, show. We laughed, cried, and listened with interest to the message. I think that this should definitely be a traveling show; people need to see it!" -Hilary Lane, Fang Shui Canines and American Treibball Association
Now we NEED YOUR HELP to bring this important information about puppy mills, adoption, and volunteering to people all over the country.
By making a tax-deductible donation to Up for Pups!, you'll be helping to save lives in several ways:
The show itself encourages adoption. Adoption saves the lives of both animals and people in many ways, as many who have adopted feel that their adopted pets have blessed their lives in ways they couldn't have imagined.
The show also encourages rescue volunteerism. Rescues need volunteers to continue their important, life-saving work, and volunteering often helps people discover a special purpose in their lives.
The show raises money for rescue organizations. Each show we have a raffle for a donation prize to one of the rescues that are present. By making a donation, you'll help us to achieve our goal of donating $500 back to rescues from every show.
