CASI Chronicles

Summertime! Picnics, hikes, vacations...and fundraising! CASI is busy planning the exciting events that will get us to our first $200,000 goal. Yes, we are close, but we aren't there yet. The seemingly endless duties of fundraising...events, planning, and implementation can, admittedly, leave me frozen in place during these hot summer days. Yet as Mark Twain so eloquently said, "the secret of getting ahead is getting started." This attitude of embracing opportunity is what has moved CASI along over the last three years and has helped get the shelter on Carson City's priority list. Keeping that in mind helps me work through the CASI list, and I invite you to join in the efforts!

-Do you like to golf? Be a part of the Barracuda Golf Championship team and help CASI in the admissions trailer. Call Chuck at 925-300-6485.

-Love putting on a party? We could use your help at our 6th annual Bark, Whine and Dine scheduled for August 29 in the Fuji Park Exhibition Hall. Patti can be reached at 775-720 4048.

-CASI 5K9, Pooch Plunge, Yappy Hour, Engraved Paver Sales and monthly Bingo...we have all kinds of fun ways to get involved! Call me for info! 775-671-2413.

In CASI's world, summertime is busy time...but helping our pets in need makes the to-do list worthwhile. CASI has many fund raising goals ahead... Getting this shelter built is the first. Equipping canine run #2 is  the second. This list of compassion is a noble one and Mr. Twain and I invite you to join us!

Thanks for all you do,

Your Pet's Nutrition



Diets that are suitable for humans rarely provide the nutritional balance that dogs and cats require, so it is best to avoid giving them "people food".  Some common ingredients in human food can be toxic to cats and dogs, including chocolate, grapes, raisins and onions.  

One way to ensure that all essential nutrients requirements are met is to feed pets a complete and balanced diet.  In most cases, these diets are based on decades of scientific research and expertise, and are carefully designed to provide the right amount of nutrients according to a pet's life stage or lifestyle.

Providing a healthy, nutritious, high-quality diet is important to ensuring a long and healthy life for pets.

Meet Diddi


 
They say I'm a perfect blend of Dalmatian and Pit Bull Terrier.  I love to play, fetch, get my chest scratched, and I'd really love to hike with you!  I'm a 2 year old puppy with a wagging tail and an eager heart.  


 

Please come see me at the Nevada Humane Society, 3770 Butti Way, CC!
