Shelter Me Photography/HOBO Care Boxer Rescue Open House


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Rover Retreat Hosts Fundraiser and Open House for Shelter-Me

Photography and HO-BO Boxer Rescue

Continuing its mission to help animals in need, Rover Retreat holds a benefit for two

local nonprofit groups that help to place pets in new homes.

LAFAYETTE, CO —April 1, 2010—Rover Retreat, metropolitan Denver’s premier

dog day care and overnight boarding facility, announces a dual fundraiser and open house

to benefit Shelter-Me Photography and HO-BO Care Boxer Rescue. The event will be

held Saturday, April 10, 2010, at Rover Retreat’s Lafayette location.

Beginning at 10 am and lasting through 1 pm in Lafayette, Colorado, the fundraiser

includes professional photographs of guests’ dogs taken by Shelter-Me Photography, a

nonprofit organization. The cost is $25.00 for the first dog and $5.00 for each additional

dog belonging to the same family.

The goal of Shelter-Me Photography is to help animal shelters and rescue groups place

homeless animals by taking professional photographs of them. Therese Morin, owner of

Rover Retreat, is honored to host the fundraiser. “Shelter and rescue dogs are often

photographed in a kennel or when they first arrive, and they’re upset, scared, and in

shock. Shelter-Me brings out the best in each dog and captures it on film.”

Rover Retreat serves as a foster home for HO-BO Boxer Rescue, and currently has

several dogs available for adoption. Guests will also have the opportunity to meet these

foster dogs, and Morin is optimistic that some of them will find a home.

“The boxers we’re fostering are ready for forever homes,” states Morin. “The open house

is a perfect chance for the fosters to meet people who love dogs, and we have plenty of

room for the foster dogs to play with their potential housemates.”

Those planning to attend are requested to RSVP with the number of dogs to be

photographed to Rover Retreat at 303-604-6264 or info@roverretreat.com. More details

about the event can be found at www.facebook.com/RoverRetreatLafayette.

About Shelter-Me Photography:

A good photograph can mean the difference between life and death for a homeless

animal. A Colorado nonprofit organization, Shelter-Me Photography expedites the

adoption process by offering free professional photography to animal shelter, rescue, and

foster organizations throughout the United States.

Shelter-Me Photography’s images have increased website traffic for every organization

that has posted them, leading to higher adoption rates, some as high as 100% for the

animals photographed. To learn more about Shelter-Me Photography, visit

About HO-BO Care Boxer Rescue:

HO-BO Care is a Colorado nonprofit group that cares for homeless boxers. HO-BO Care

finds loving, permanent homes for these dogs. Boxers come to HO-BO Care from

shelters, from homes with no room for them, or from the streets. Often these animals are

starved or neglected. They need food, medical treatment, and especially an owner who is

willing to give them the attention they need. For more information about HO-BO Care

Boxer Rescue, visit their website at www.hobocare.com.
