| ID Your Dog in Style! |
|
 Dog Tag Art dog tags are without a doubt the coolest, most original dog tags available. You can choose from a large
collection of original designs (100 and growing!) created by artists, and then personalize your tag online with up to four lines of text. Your doggy will look mah-velous. And he/she can even roll around in the sand: The artwork is permanently sublimated on aluminum so these tags are virtually indestructible and guaranteed for life. Dog Tag Art is a small business located in Asheville, so they deserve our support. Check
out all the great tags at www.dogtagart.com. Enter the coupon code AHS09 when you order your tag and a donation will be made
to the Asheville Humane Society.
 Freddie, shown here, is wearing his very elegant "Bond, James Bond" tag. Freddie, age 13-1/2, is the newest addition to the Bandanas family. He was adopted by Sharon and her husband from the Asheville Humane Society. Freddie likes showing off his style with his Dog Tag Art tag! |

| Chain Free Asheville - A Worthy Cause |
|
Chain Free Asheville is a unique organization that advocates on behalf of chained dogs. Their volunteers build fences without cost for low-income families so their dogs can be free from chaining. The
group was instrumental in getting an anti-tethering ordinance passed by the City of Asheville in late September.
