Help hounds in Haiti

Animal welfare groups have joined forces to help animals in Haiti. No-one can help but be shocked by the degree of devastation and suffering caused by the earthquake – now said to have killed 150,000 in the Port-au-Prince area alone.

Help hounds in Haiti

The World Society for the Protection on Animals (WSPA) and its teams are working out of a mobile clinic in the most affected areas to treat injured animals, vaccinate against disease and distribute feed.
WSPA is calling for donations to help the animals of Haiti, and the thousands of other animals that will be affected by disasters to come. To donate, visit https://donate.wspa.org.uk/form.asp?id=1282

Britain’s next top dog model

Forget Vivienne Westwood and Kate Moss, it’s Hawkshead country clothing that’s causing a stir in the British fashion world – canine that is! The company has launched a nationwide search to find this season’s most fashionable and eccentric pooch to become the face of this season’s Hawkshead catalogue.

Known for its love of quintessential British eccentricity and dog-friendly stores, Hawkshead is calling on only the quirkiest canine fashionistas to put their best paw forward and submit their entry. The successful dog will win a modelling contract which sees the winner and their owner whisked off to a fashion shoot for the Hawkshead 2010 Spring/Summer catalogue and in-store promotional materials – plus the proud owner will receive £250-worth of Hawkshead clothing and footwear!

To enter, click the Hawkshead advert on the right. The deadline for entries is 10 February 2010 – so get your skates on!
