PARENTS and their PAWS are welcome and encouraged to stop by the Booths of all the Exhibitors and see what is New and exciting in the PAW World. There will be tons of stuff going on all day long at this Wonderful Event, so Bring Your Paw Out and PAWTY. Also, unlike the Pet Expo earlier this year, Guess What the PAWS are invited and encouraged to ATTEND Too!

The Park is one of the First and Largest here in Orange County and it is a Local Favorite and Institution among PARENTS and their PAWS! There are many PARENTS in the Club that Brandi and I see all the time enjoying this Great Bark Park, so because of this, Desperate Paws of Orange County Dog Club is also making a Special "PAW IT FORWARD" Contribution to this Year's Bathestille Day Event, by Donating 50% of the Proceeds from all our Raffles Held on this ONE DAY ONLY, to the Bark Park Foundation a Non-Profit Organization to help with up keep, maintenance, and improvements to the Bark Park, of which a great many of Our Members utilize regularly.

The Raffle Prizes for this Event will include a Devine Gift Card to Market Broiler the Fresh Fish Experts, a Tasty Gift Certificate to Sabatino's Lido Shipyard Sausage Co., located in Newport Beach, (2) V.I.P. Gift Certificates to Papa Murphy's Pizza, because who doesn't love a great Pizza, (1) Three Month Exclusive Pass to the Club's Newest Sponsor, Frogg's Bounce House, a true O.C. Family Entertainment Establishment, plus the Just Chill N Ice Cream Truck will be there Selling Awesome PARENT and PAW Ice Cream alike, and The Great News is they have Agreed to Donate $.50 from every sale of either PARENTS or PAWS Ice Cream to be Split between the "PAW IT FORWARD" CAMPAIGN and the "BARK PARK FOUNDATION". How amazingly cool is that?

Raffle ticket prices are as follows: (5) tickets for $5.00, (15) tickets for $10.00 and (40) tickets for $20.00.

Please Don't Forget PARENTS, this is a really unique Event so if you need your PAW Bathed it can be done at this Event too....lol. Although I would wait until they were done "PAWTYING". Fresh Filtered Water will be available for the PAWS in the Critter Cooler, which was PAWvided for the Club's use by Critter Concepts, because the Critter Cooler is the simplest and easiest way to PAWvide for your PAWS water Needs.

We hope to See all the PARENTS and the PAWS at this Fun Filled PAWTY in the Park. You will not want to miss this one. It will be HUGE!!

It was a really fun day meeting and seeing all the PAWS. We wish to thank everyone who attended and participated in the "PAW IT FORWARD" RAFFLES and a special thanks to Patricia and Stan for all their help at the booth. Lastly, but certainly not least our Terrific Sponsors for Donating to our Campaign and helping the Club to "PAW IT FORWARD" and to the Just Chill N Ice Cream Truck and Donna and her wonderful Family for spending an afternoon at the Bark Park, to help "PAW IT FORWARD". The Frosty Paws were a big hit and everyone I talked to loved them. There were several thousand dogs and their owners which passed through the event all day. The German Shepherd Rescue of Orange County and the Pitbull Rescue of Orange County were also there. Tons of baths were given, and lots of play time in the Park for the PAWS too. Be sure and look at the accounting sheet for the "PAW IT FORWARD" CAMPAIGN to see how much was raised at the event, it will be updated in a couple of days.

The tent section was fun and Desperate Paws was in a great spot. The only down side was that the small dog section of the park was full of water/mud puddles because of the run off from all of the doggie baths taking place. It was great to meet Stephen, Brandi and Patricia - Thanks!

- MISSION STATEMENT -

DESPERATE PAWS OF ORANGE COUNTY DOG CLUB is a NOT-FOR-PROFIT CLUB designed to get PARENTS and their PAWS out of the house and enjoying life. The club was specifically created to place PARENTS and their PAWS together in fun social activities, while Advocating for Dog Welfare and Adoption.

ALL FRIENDLY PARENTS AND THEIR PAWS ARE WELCOME TO JOIN!

MEMBERSHIP IS FREE!!

Through the club we hold fun social activities, outings and events such as trips to Dog Beaches, Bark Parks, Hiking Trails, Restaurant and Happy Hour Pawties, Camping Trips, Paw Classes, Paw Expos, Pawventure Vacations, Adoption Events and More so that the PARENTS and their PAWS can play and socialize together at fun PAW-friendly venues.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING ALL PARENTS AND THEIR PAWS AT THE UPCOMING OUTINGS!

THE DESPERATE PAWS OF ORANGE COUNTY DOG CLUB'S "PAW IT FORWARD" CAMPAIGN benefits Local Needy and Adoptable Dogs by funding Special Adoption Events in our community. This Club is so much more than just a place to have a great time with our PAWS but also through the Club's joint efforts with Local Businesses, Agencies, Dog Welfare Groups and County Officials we have been able to positively affect the lives of many more deserving PAWS who are not as fortunate to have wonderful PARENTS like our PAWS do.

DESPERATE PAWS OF ORANGE COUNTY DOG CLUB, its Efforts, Activities and Programs have been recognized by the following. Here is what they had to say:

"O.C. Animal Care has benefited greatly from our relationship with Desperate Paws of O.C. Dog Club and we are looking forward to the B.A.R.K 4 Kids program. As Orange County’s largest animal shelter, we see firsthand the lack of education in our community through the number of animals that come to our shelter lacking identification, proper care, and proper behavioral training. Through programs like this, and the wonderful volunteers in our community like Desperate Paws of O.C. Dog Club, we hope to further our cause of educating our younger community in responsible pet ownership and a higher respect for the animals we work so hard to protect." - Ryan Drabek, Director of O.C. Animal Care

THE NEEDY PAWS APPRECIATE ANY AND ALL DONATIONS!

We ask that you please read the D.P.O.C. DOG CLUB'S FAQs to answer any potential questions that you may have about the club. Thank You!

***In keeping with our Mission Statement, and Singleness of Purpose, there are times when Brandi and I feel that some people will join the Club to promote other activities or business ventures not in-line with the Club's Purpose. Therefore we feel it is essential to keep the Club's Mission Clear which is to promote Quality Time for bonding between PARENTS and their PAWS in fun social activities, while giving back to our Local Needy PAW Community. If you are joining for any other reason, please be advised you are joining the wrong Club....
