Our Fundraiser

Thank you all who supported our fundraiser on 5th October at the Teeling centre, Collooney, Sligo.

To David, Avenir Design, Castlebar for a great poster for our advertising.

A big thank you to John for letting us use the centre.

The day was a great success and we raised 550 euro, together with 440 euro donation from Creating Creature Comforts and an

individual donation. A grand total of 990 euro !

Together with friends and their dogs we performed the Pantomime “Cinderella” with the dogs as the characters.

Huge thanks to Richard for his organisation and narration and for keeping us focused when nerves took hold ! It was

everyone’s first public performance and none of the dogs had done anything in public before either, so the thought of what might

happen, or not, was rather unnerving for us all. So sincere thanks to Brenda and Pip, Laura and Bella, Sheila and Kim ,Susie

with Mugley and Chewy, and my dog Autumn.

Thank you Cath for taking charge of the music and to Sheila for making the wonderful costumes, to Geraldine for providing

transport and helping on the day.

Many thanks Mary for baking all week for our bake stall. This was a huge success, Mary is a wonderful cook. 

Thank you Rory, Susie’s young son, for selling the raffle tickets on the day and to everyone who donated a prize.

Thank you Amanda for helping us set up the props for the show, the evening before.

I ended the show with demonstrating how clever Chickens are by doing an agility course with Nugget !!

Nugget was a star and if you google “Nugget chicken doing agility, Little Wings” you can see her performance on You Tube.

I have had a quote for much needed fox proof fencing of just under 4000 euro and the money raised at our show brings us much

closer to being able to achieve this.

Sincere thanks to you all. You will make a big difference to the safety and well being of the birds in my care.
