Hi everyone,
I have not been on in so long I have been really busy with a dog rescue in my area called Barlees Angles Rescue net work. I have been fostering a dog for them and helping plan a large event. I thought I would let you guys know about it as well as I know theirs dog lovers here!
I wanted to let everyone know in Ontario about this awesome rescue and the event that is coming up this weekend the 26!! I would love to meet people from here as well if your in the area Please think about coming out it should be lots of fun
Here is the info about the event copied from our event page.
You're invited to the BIGGEST BADDEST event of the doggy world this year! Sponsored by EMERALD LAKE RV RESORT & WATER PARK and STARBUCKS - featuring more items for silent auction than we've had at any previous event! GREAT deals to be had, tons of fun, and your own chance to get up close and personal with those awesome orphans and alumni you've seen go through rescue, and their adopters/fosters (and the people behind Barlee's Angels too!).
Barleepalooza 2015 is our annual fundraiser, BBQ and Alumni Reunion. For the third year we are hosting at Emerald Lake RV Resort & Waterpark in Puslinch, just off Highway 6, a little bit South of the 401. Thank you to Emerald Lake for providing a great venue for us to have... our event, rain or shine!
Join us from 10am to 5pm on Saturday, September 26th for a dog-friendly, all day party. Don't miss your chance to get a professional portrait of your pet by Craig Schenk, have your pal's nails trimmed at our nail trim clinic, and spread the word about our Microchip Clinic - done by our own Dr. Mel at the great price of $30! Browse our GIGANTIC silent auction, enjoy a bite to eat (vegetarian options available), romp with your canine buddies in the HUGE, FULLY FENCED off-leash area, and take advantage of Palooza sales on high quality Barlee's merchandise!
Full listing of events:
- Free goodie bags for the first 30 guests!
- LOTS of door prizes to be drawn ALL DAY LONG!
- HUGE Silent Auction - check back often for spoilers on items for auction; thanks to some great efforts by our Palooza committee, we have the biggest lineup ever of items! Whether you're addicted to spoiling your pet, you like a discounted night on the town, or wine and cheese is your thing - there is something for everyone!
- Pet portraits by Craig Schenk, with funds going to Barlee's Angels!

Meet some alumni in person, and see how far they've come!
