Adopt a Dog

A few days ago, a buddy I’ve known from the Dachshund thread at Kaskus asked me to design a poster for his friend. I asked about what type of poster he wanted and I was wondering how much do graphic designers usually charge for a poster design, when he gave me a URL of his friend’s blog just so that I had an idea of what kind of poster she’d want – and when I did, I felt so sorry and guilty for wanting to charge money to a person who took care of stray dogs and helped finding news homes for them.

I decided to spend more time to browse her blog and found beautiful stories of people rescuing stray dogs, as well as the heartbreaking ones of stray dogs who had been taken cared of but eventually passed away because they weren’t strong enough to survive due to the harsh treatment they’d been getting (either attacked by other dogs on the streets or being abused by their previous owners).

So in attempt of trying to help, I’ve decided to create another blogroll category in my blog called “All About Dogs“, which listed the sites that advertise stray dogs ready for adoption.

For Charmy – the owner of Fauna Welfare – I’m ready to discuss about that poster design, whenever you’re ready. I’ve a couple of ideas already about what it’s going to look like.

For others who are reading this blog, please spend some time to browse through these sites:

• Bali Street Dogs
• Dog Need Home, and
• Fauna Welfare

And if you see any cute puppies that you wish to take home to keep you company and shower you with unconditional love, give them people a holler and adopt a dog immediately – you won’t regret it!
