Happy Holidays

Happy holidays to all my friends and loved ones...

I just wanted to send out a quick message during this season to remind you to take time from all the typical rush to keep in mind the true value of what the holidays represent; to connect with your family; to count the many blessings you have in your life; to celebrate all your accomplishments for the year, whether great or small; to remember all the wonderful lessons you've learned, even if they came disguised as challenges; and to maybe most importantly take some time for yourself and reflect upon your dreams, intentions and values for the new year.

Happy holidays,


James Arthur Ray

ihop

As you may know, an undercover exposé of IHOP's egg supplier documented shocking cruelty. Many thousands of consumers have since asked IHOP to move away from this extreme form of confinement by using cage-free eggs. IHOP's competitors like Denny's, Burger King, and Wendy's are moving away from battery cage eggs, but IHOP still only uses eggs from hens confined in cages so small they can't even spread their wings.

Because of IHOP’s refusal to move on this vital issue, The HSUS is airing its first television commercial exposing IHOP's animal cruelty.

TAKE ACTION
Even if you've taken action in the past, please make a brief, polite phone call to IHOP letting them know you just watched our commercial and you want them to start switching to cage-free eggs: 1-866-444-5144.

Celebrate your loved ones

I want to share a success story with you today. The Humane Society of the United States recently stepped in to save a group of more than 50 feral cats on San Nicolas Island, Calif. We worked alongside the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U.S. Navy, and other government agencies to make this happen.

Today, thanks to the very generous support of DoGreatGood.com, these cats are exploring their new home at our Ramona, Calif., pet shelter, which was dedicated on November

All animals are worth celebrating and protecting.

Empowerment Part 2 by Christy

When I desired to have my ideal partner, I was VERY clear
that he would come into my life. I had no idea when or
how it would happen. I didn't feel that I needed a man
to make me happy. I remember saying "I don't need a man.
I prefer to have a man." I was emotionally detached
from the outcome. I created the space for the universe
to bring Frederic into my life in a very magical way.
I still don't NEED him. I prefer him in my life.

I realize that my joy is within me. His joy is within him.
But when we come together . . . our joy is multiplied.

Detachment is allowing. Allowing the timing, the form,
and the how to be the work of the universe.

Just enjoy your life. That is your job!

Christy

Detachment

There is a fine line between desiring what we want
and then being detached from it manifesting.

Being detached from something doesn't mean you don't care
or that you don't want it.

It just means that you don't NEED to have it in order
to be happy. When you come from a place of NEEDING something
you are coming from a place of lack. You are telling the
universe that you are missing out on something and you
can't be happy until that is fulfilled.

The vibration you are sending out is lack and that
is precisely what you will receive back from the universe.
Ask yourself this question, "Do I need this to happen,
or do I prefer that this happens?"

When you come from a place of preferring something
you are then detached. You would absolutely love it to
happen, but you won't get upset if it doesn't because
your happiness and fulfillment doesn't depend on it

Dance

"Life is short, forgive sooner, love with true love, laugh without control and always keep smiling.

Maybe life is not the party that we were expecting, but in the mean time, we're here and we can still dance....."

Thanks to the support of advocates like you, California celebrated an incredible victory for 20 million animals last November with the passage of Prop 2, the Prevention of Farm Animal Cruelty Act.

The Humane Society Legislative Fund (HSLF) has been building on the momentum of Prop 2, taking the fight for animals to the California legislature. As you read this, legislation to protect farm animals, dogs, and wildlife is making progress in Sacramento -- but we desperately need your help to get these bills over the finish line.

Hens suffering in cages -- A.B. 1437 would ban the sale of eggs from caged hens. Prop 2 banned the extreme confinement of laying hens in cages so small the birds can't even stretch their wings, and A.B. 1437 would require that all whole eggs sold in California meet that same basic humane standard.

Dogs languishing in puppy mills -- A.B. 241 would crack down on abusive puppy mills by limiting the number of dogs who can be confined in these large-scale production facilities, where man’s best friend is treated not like a family pet but like a cash crop.
Dogs being forced to fight -- Two bills to upgrade California’s anti-dogfighting laws are on the move. A.B. 242 strengthens the penalties for attending a dogfight, since the spectators fuel this criminal enterprise by paying their admission fees and gambling wagers. And S.B. 318 would allow the forfeiture of property connected with dogfighting.

Cows suffering on dairy farms -- S.B. 135 would ban the painful and unnecessary tail docking of dairy cows in the nation’s number-one dairy state and send a message far and wide that animals should not be mutilated just for convenience.
Wild animals being poached -- A.B. 708 would increase penalties for illegal poaching of wildlife.

Keep Your Dog Cool in the Summer

Keep Your Dog Cool in the Summer

Dogs do not sweat. When you see Fido panting, that’s him trying to cool off. Works great in normal climates and during weather that isn’t too warm. But when the temperature starts rising, it’s time to start taking measures to keep Fido cool, because all the panting in the world isn’t going to make him comfortable in the heat of summer. Some tips on how to help your pooch beat the heat:

Baby Pool full of cool water – or a basin for smaller dogs. Just make sure they can enter and exit easily.
Ice in the water bowl. This will keep the water cool and some dogs love to chew on the ice! Make sure there is triple the amount of water available than you would normally leave. Dogs consume a LOT of water on hot days.
If your dog is going to be outdoors, make SURE that there is ALWAYS a shady spot for him to lay in.
Don’t leave your pooch in the car. (I know you all know this... enough said!)

HOUNDS FOR HOPE

Hounds of Hope is a non-profit dog rescue foundation that is passionately dedicated to saving the lives of adoptable dogs that are about to be euthanized in the high kill shelters of Los Angeles. We strive to find the safest and most loving homes for unwanted, neglected and/or abused animals.

Educating people on responsible pet ownership is very important to us. We believe that once you choose to be an animal guardian, that animal’s happiness and quality of life is in your hands. Being an animal guardian can be a huge responsibility, but it can also be a very beautiful and rewarding experience for both you and your adopted dog.

In order to place a dog in a suitable home, we have a screening process which includes an adoption application, reference checks and a potential adopter home check. This ensures that both the adopter and the adoptee coexist harmoniously. It is important that this be a good match so that we can make sure that the dog’s second chance at life in their new home is a safe and loving environment.

Thousands of animals enter the shelter system in Los Angeles every month. Sadly, most times less than half of the dogs turned in to the shelter make it out alive. YOU can make a difference. If you are thinking of adding a beloved pet to your life, please consider adopting a rescue from the shelter or from a rescue group like ours.

Sounds like a solid organization, let's help.
