Silent Auction!
Hundreds of Silent Auction prizes were generously contributed by a wide array of people & groups. Heartland Animal Shelter wishes to thank ALL of the generous contributors!!
All proceeds benefit the animals at Heartland Animal Shelter - Thanks!
The 1st Annual Golden Paw Gala was a wonderful success! Everyone had a wonderful time!
The Pampered Pooch guests were treated to a fur styling, massage, communicator (so they could tell their people what they were really thinking!) and a portrait.
Many wonderful Silent Auction prizes were claimed by their lucky bidders.
Appetizers and a champagne toast were enjoyed by the two-legged guests.
Rob Johnson of Channel 2 News did a wonderful job of MC'ing.
Artist Dennis Downes has generously contributed the print "Red Deer River Crossing" for the Silent Auction. This is a signed print on Arches Archival watercolor paper in an acid free suede mat. The solid bird's eye maple frame is hand notched with black enamel back drop. All work is done by the artist.
This art work is still available. Go to the Red Deer River Crossing page for more information
Mr. Downes joined us at the Golden Paw Gala. He is very active in a number of charitable events and Heartland Animal Shelter is thrilled to have his support. Do yourself a favor and take a few minutes to visit his web site: www.downesstudio.net
