Did you know that Homeward Bound Rescue has a Flipgive team?

FlipGive is an innovative fundraising tool that links you to most of the popular online shopping sites in order to create a painless means of helping our HBR puppits in foster.

BUT, FG isn’t a new risky thing.   Its start was in Toronto TEN years ago and over that time it has helped raise over $10M!

Sounds good, how does it work?

HBR’s fundraising committee has created a “team page” where you can easily connect and shop.  It doesn’t change HOW you shop or WHERE you shop – there’s a long list of brands that participate!  To sign up, go to https://www.flipgive.com/signup and then enter our team code: G5PRY2.

Once you’ve signed up once, all you do is go to your Team Page, THEN select the website where you’d like to do your usual shopping.

Use your pc more than a mobile device?  Then FlipGive Max [for pcs only atm] is for you!  Max is a browser add-on that’s easily downloaded to your pc.  He’ll flag you each time you’re on a shopping site that’s affiliated with FG.  Max will also remind you when you’re doing a search if there are affiliates listed.  He’s a helpful guy!

Your average family can earn roughly $173 just on their regular shopping etc each month!  That includes eating out, family outings, and even hotel stays!  Average team earnings can be as much as $8,136 for a year!   Just for shopping!   How many raffle tickets would THAT take?

Think of it as the “new shopping”.  FG isnt just for gifting! 

Need groceries?  Buy the associated cash cards and use them instead of cash. 
Going to the movies?   Book it through FG. 
Planning a group get together?  Do it through FG and it will count too!

AND anyone can use it, so tell your family, friends, enemies, co-workers too, so that all their shopping will count for HBR as well!

Give gift cards instead of gifts?  FlipGive gives you THAT option as well!

Your girl CLOVER here!

I am a high octane extrovert, sometimes described as a little “extra”. I have an affinity for Charcuterie, running Charity 5k’s and hoarding ALL the Butt scratches .

I am seeking a like minded individual of the Human type who will allow me be the big spoon and accept me for the stage 5 clinger that truly I am. Cat and small dog people need not apply.

I can totally see myself with someone who has kids, but definitely none under 4 ft tall – too wobbly.

Likes:
long car rides with the window partly open, Painstakingly slow introductions to other dogs ( no small dogs please), 90’s gangsta Rap & silly snap chat filters

Dislikes:
House Music, Car rides that ultimately end at the vet’s, Old Fashioned Plain Timbits, Felines and small dogs(far too shifty), and “heeling”.

Later (or sooner?), Clover.xo

Catherine and Dave adopted Benny from HBR just over a year ago! As he celebrates his Gotcha Day, we checked in to see how he is doing! His family shared the following update with us:

“Benny loves to chase rabbits in the yard, lay in the sun and play with his ropes. When he feels like you are ignoring him, he will start chasing his tail and if that doesn’t work, he’ll try for a game of keep away with any socks he can find.”

“When Benny first came home, it took some time for him to trust us and for him to be comfortable here, for him to know this is home. We had issues with accidents the first 6 months, but that has stopped. He still gets really nervous/anxious in the car but at home he is relaxed now.”

When asked to share some advice for potential adopters, the family said: “You have to be willing to give them time to learn to trust you. They have had a tough time and need time to feel at home. We’re really happy we found Benny. He makes us laugh every day and is such a character. He is a mischievous, cuddly clown.”

We are so happy to know Benny is living his best life with his new family! Thank you for choosing adoption!
