    EP 64 Music with a Mission - The Stage Dress Turned To ART Auction

    As a dog mom, and a big time animal lover, my dream has always been to build an animal mansion. And while I'm bringing this vision to life, one baby step at a time, combining my passion for music with saving strays and shelter dogs. Every show I'm playing, I'm creating a piece of art, live on stage that will be auctioned off to support a rescue group in efforts to help them save more dogs. In todays Episode, I'm sharing my experience, playing my first solo show of the year in Tampa and shedding a bit more light on the situation we are currently in. 1. Why not to donate money to a shelter - instead use gift cards to ensure it goes directly to the animals 2. Do your due diligence before supporting a rescue organization and shelter to make sure they are actually doing great work 3. If you see something, say something. Report animal abuse, neglect or if you see a stray directly to your local animal control and sheriff 4. Be a responsible pet owner. Owning a pet means a lifetime commitment. A pet is not a toy and should never be a birthday gift. Before committing, the entire family should be in agreement to take full responsibility and make time for the new family member. 5. Make sure your pet is wearing a collar with a name and number, and it is chipped. 6. Spay and neuter your pets! Enter the Raffle to help save a stray and get a chance to win the stage dress, the 1st one. https://pinkstarmusic.com/the-rescue-riot

    EP 61 Inside Animal Shelters & How We Can with Sherr from LA ANIMAL SERVICES

    I'm excited to speak with a dear friend of mine who is the very reason BOLT is in my life. Sherr has worked and volunteered in the Shelters in LA for most of her life, and has dedicated her life to speak for those without a voice. Some takeaways from today's Episode 1. Adopt don't shop - you can find your desired breed in a shelter 2. A pet is not a toy you can return when bored, it's a part of the family 3. Chip your dog and have him/her wear a collar with your important information on it, name and number 4. If you lose your pet contact the local shelter, flyer your neighborhood and town, reach out on facebook post on Lost and Found groups, shelters and rescues in your area 5. Spay and neuter your pets 6. A shelter pet is in danger of euthanization, young or old 7. Shelters are overcrowded , understaffed and overworked, it's a stressful environment for the pets 8. Fireworks are horrifying for the pets and the 4th of July is the biggest intake day of the year - hundreds of pets get lost due to negligence by owner - keep your pet inside, play loud music and make sure all windows and doors are locked. 9. You see something, say something 10. You find an injured pet or stray call the local sherrif and animal control 11. Support shelters if you can by donating and/or volunteering 12. Be mindful & remember together we can make a difference Book me for a house party to support a local rescue http://www.pinkstarmusic.com Shop in my store for products I trust and use https://amzn.to/4y0mvsK
