CASI ~ Best of the Best Non-Profit!

What an honor!   TAKE A BOW!!!

Businesses donating generously to help with fundraisers.  Local artists sharing their talents to help CASI get the word out.  Community individuals and organizations banding together with energy, passion and goodwill on behalf of our furry friends. 

CASI has received donations from Reno, Douglas, Eldorado, Murphys and Mammoth, Alaska, Iowa, Missouri and even Sweden.  And we've received help from you.  
Thank you for sharing posts on Facebook, buying tickets to events, bidding on silent auction items, running in our 5K9, and bringing your dogs to pooch plunge. 

Thank you for coming to meetings, volunteering at events, making donations, buying bricks and loving animals.

You make the difference as we continue on this journey.  
We now have an exercise play yard to build.  We'll be putting in fencing, shade structures, trees, and providing the opportunity for our shelter dogs to get out of their kennels for a bit.  
It's an important project and we're grateful to have you on our team.  
Congratulations on being named Carson City Chamber of Commerce's Best of the Best!
Happy 4th of July!!

One week away!!
Bark, Whine and Dine!!

Join CASI for another great evening of delicious food from Carson City BBQ and incredible silent auction items from our generous local and neighboring businesses!   
There is truly something from everyone!  

Proceeds will go toward creating an exercise play yard ... a place where dogs can have an opportunity to get out of their kennels and just be goofballs for a bit.


Tickets can be purchased on our website at www.friendsofcasi.org 

It's Barracuda Time!

Even though the Bark, Whine and Dine is only a week away CASI isn't about to miss out on helping our friends at Barracuda.  In turn, the tournament makes a generous donation to CASI!  Building Shelter, Building Community...we live these words!       Come out and enjoy watching top ranked golfers in a beautiful setting and be sure to say hi!  See you at the admissions booth!  www.barracudachampionship.com


 
Hello from warm shades of Summer!!
Zeke and Vee null Jake and Linda
Saturday Music on June 25 at the Brewery Arts Center!

  People came by to hear about CASI, buy BWD tickets, get information about our engraved brick program, buy Kathleen Stemler cards, and hang out with folks who love critters!  Thank you, BAC, for the invite!
...and to Zeke and Jake, the two rescue dogs pictured above, 
we are so happy you have such wonderful forever homes!

 
It's coming along!

There is so much to be grateful for!  Carson City will soon have a new shelter that people will want to visit!

Unfortunately, CASI's work isn't over.
While the building will be much more inviting for people, and yes, more humane for the animals waiting to be adopted,
 there are still critical needs.

In addition to continuing to help defray costs associated the new shelter, CASI's focus is creating, fencing and equipping an exercise play yard.  We want to allow shelter dogs a chance to get out of their kennels and run, wiggle, play and destress...at least for a little while each day.

Hopefully in the next newsletter, we will be able to show the exercise play yard taking shape, but in the meantime, 
we're pretty happy to continue showing the amazing building progress.  Carson City and CASI supporters, you ROCK!


Hello, I'm Lugus.

To all you whippersnappers out there...
I may be cautious when we meet, but it's only because I'm a handsome senior and as a wise old man I like to take my time getting to know people.  

I'm independent and bold, yet it might take a minute for some people to see this about me.  I prefer to love you from afar and I seek attention on my terms. 
I'm hoping you want to open your heart and home to a dignified kitty like me.  Truth is, I'm a shy old softie...

You can find Lugus and many other beautiful animals to adopt at 
The Nevada Humane Society, Reno and Carson City.
