Broadway Barks — Page 3

Jordangirl: Thank you for sharing the pics!

It's such a wonderful event. Kudos to all who volunteered their time! I hope lots of pets found loving homes.

This is my favorite pic from the BWW article. How cute!

To answer the original poster's question, no shelter will ever adopt dogs out for free; they need to recoup some of the costs for spay/neuter, food and board, etc., and also because sometimes very dodgy people want animals for free, to do god knows what to them. They want to be sure that prospective adopters are really serious about wanting the dog or cat as a companion, so charging a fee is part of that process.

On a lighter note, I was one of the volunteers at the silent auction table so I had a very nice view of all the talent that was there to help adopt out these very needy and worthy animals! It was an honor to be a part of it, as animals and Broadway are two of my biggest loves! It was also kind of bizarre and adorable to watch Dr. Ruth enthusiastically greeting Harvey Fierstein, Joel Grey, etc. (she was sitting right behind the silent auction table.) Very cute!

My only bummer was I took a short break and missed Cheyenne Jackson, I could've kicked myself! I only just saw him (and loved him) in Damn Yankees. Fabulous voice, great looking :)
