Dogs of Fishtown Calendar

That's a great idea, Leo. How about the proceeds go to ACCT or any other organization that protects animals.

Why couldn't you sell it in 2012?

pepper would love to be a part of this. and that would be awesome if the proceeds could go to ACCT! they need all the money they can get.

Crap, what about those of us wierdos who have Rhino Iguanas and Brazilian Black Tarantulas instead of dogs?

if you can find enough weirdos to make a calendar, go for it!

I love it how do I post pics?

How to post

My baby, Ginger.

Hey, great idea. when is the river city festival?

This is awesome!
One thing to keep in mind though is the photos posted here won't have a high enough resolution to be printed, and are too small to boot - everything will be super blurry/ pixelated.
Maybe start a flicker group and ask people who want to participate to upload the highest resolution photos they have? Your designer or the printer can take it from there.
I might be able to help for that depending on what you need.
Btw- Im very fond of dogs, but no dog here tho- just kitties!

Does anybody know about chipping, like where to get it done and how much it costs? We were going to get our dog chipped when he got neutered, but it never happened. If we lost him, I think I'd have either diarrhea or a stroke. He wears a collar 24/7 and isn't the run-away type, but still.
Thanks in advance.

sure you can get him chipped at PAWS http://www.phillypaws.org/

Those are the three least expensive places I know of - you have to register the chip ( don't pay for the re-upthe next year they keep your info unless you need to change it

This is such an excellent idea. Perhaps the Spirit can get involved and all proceeds go to any organization that saves the lives of our furry friends. I would buy one of these in a heartbeat.

I got our Ginger chipped at the pet clinic that comes to Coral Street Arts. It was very cheap around $35 a couple years ago; it does make you feel better knowing that if anything happened, you have a chance to get the back.

And then a "Cats of Fishtown" calendar.
(Not strays...)

It will be on Saturday, October 6th, 2012.

Do you have cats? I didn't know that.

It's not something I talk about very often. Not many people know.

I have ants.
No takers on an ant calendar?
Racists.

i killed off our kitchen mice. it's a shame, we could have had a "pests of fishtown" calendar.

My entry for the month of June:

Yes, I am a speciesist. Whaddyagonnado?

Camera, love that mug! Awesome idea and I'd love it to go to ACCT or PAWS.

thanks, Brooke! He's quite aware that he's awesome.
Will Bam Bam qualify for the calendar? He lives in East Kensington, not Fishtown, although he's often found crapping in the latter (which I, being a responsible dog owner, always pick up).

i think this is a great idea, i'd also love for it to go to acct.

sarsario, that photo is ridiculously cute.

There's plenty of room on exile island with me!

I've got two.

(just one I took while walking my dog.
and

(Seamus. Although he looks sad and bored with me.)

Seamus is my doggies name too. He is awesome as well :)

My great dane Daisy.

If there was a dog contest of aerial maneuvers, or specifically goal-tending, I'd have to bet on my dog.

pepper misses ernie.

Here you go dog lovers!

Anyone ever gone to the dog park and seen a dog bouncing over around and under other dogs then digging a one foot hole in under 5 seconds.... that was probably AnnBonnie. Does she count as a FT.us dog?

How do you post pictures on here? I have a perfect picture of Toby, the December dog :)

And I would love the proceeds to go to ACCT or, even better, the PSPCA!

ACCT is actually the shelter that's more in need, but either choice is good!
