Save An Animal – Come to the Start II Dinner on Thursday

Bergen County Real Estate Agent — Sat, 07 May 2011 17:07:07 +0000

If you know me then you’ll know that pets and animal rescue are important to me. You’ll also know that I got started with animal rescue through the abused boxer puppy my son saved and everything we went through with her. Our nearly 18 month adventure with my fabulous vet, Dr. Harriet Lederman, turned this terribly sick little puppy into a vibrant boxer filled with all the fun and mischief of it’s breed and led me to New Jersey Boxer Rescue who found Samantha the home she needed.

One of my best friends, Laura Latrenta, who’s a fellow associate at our Weichert Realtors Tenafly Office, is also involved in animal rescue. Laura told me about the Start II Animal Rescue dinner coming up this Thursday – she’s working on getting people to come. It’s their biggest fund raiser of the year so please join us - there’s room for more! All the information you need is on the flyer below:

Urgent Help Needed – Lost Puppy in Bergen County

Bergen County Real Estate Agent — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 23:00:40 +0000

While I normally blog about the real estate market and life here in Bergen County, I want to bring Jake to your attention. This is a sad story about a pet rescue – the owners had just adopted this dog who is still a puppy – from an animal rescue group when things went terribly wrong:

PLEASE CROSSPOST!!!

JAKE was adopted Sunday night and like any young dog in new surroundings was nervous. Within 15 minutes of being in his new home the front door was opened for a second and he ran like a bullet through the door. He has no internal device yet for remembering where his new home is. We really need everyone’s help to bring this baby back home. His new family who loves him very much and is devastated. They have already began posting signs and were combing the streets all night. Please send this to EVERYONE. Young dogs can travel very far and even if you are not a dog person someone you know may be! With ANY SIGHTING INFO AT ANY HOUR please contact Sharon Flesche at 201-406-9648. Please Watch for Jake!

And Yes, The Rescue group Has been contacter

Please post this story in your blog, on Facebook, tweet about it, etc. so maybe someone will find poor Jake. What set him off we believe is the fact that there were fireworks last night in town. If you’ve ever been a pet owner, you know how fireworks can upset an animal. People everywhere throughout Bergen County are posting this and many volunteers have been helping to try to find him. In fact, the local police messaging services put out the call for all policemen to be on the watch for Jake last night as soon as the owners called for help.

If you’re in Bergen County or near by, please keep a look out for this frightened little guy. Thanks a lot!

Help An Animal & Get A Free Picture of Your Pet

The most special aspect of selling real estate in Bergen County is the people you meet. One of the nicest people I’ve met is a lady by the name of Laura who told me today about a pet portrait promotion to help out CLAWS – CLAWS is an animal rescue group based in Closter which is in the north eastern part of Bergen County but they help animals throughout the county. I’ve inserted their flyer below which has all the details for you.

By the way, if you are thinking about adding a pet to your family, in addition to CLAWS there are several animal shelters in Bergen County as well as breed rescue groups where you can save a pet and have the love of an animal who, from what I’ve been told, truly understands that their new owner has rescued them. It is an unfortunate truth that there are always many fine dogs and cats available but the good news is that you have a good choice of many wonderful pets.

If you have a dog or a cat or a turtle or a bird or any other pet, wouldn’t it be fun to have a pet portrait of them? Not only will you be helping out CLAWS to do more animal rescue work and to maintain the pets they now have, you will have a lot of fun with the folks at Motophoto while you’re getting your pet’s 5 X 7 portrait.
