I'm so so sorry to hear about his departure I know how it feels and I know how much it hurts. He was one lucky puppy to have been yours

Bump for awareness!

Thanks, Sarah... things have really quieted down on the raffle front since the start of the weekend, and even more so after Falcore died.  I think people might feel guilty at the idea of winning a prize in the midst of something so sad, or maybe there is no one left on the Arena who is interested in buying tickets?  Who knows...

In any event, we'll still keep ticket sales open until the 2nd and do the official prize drawings on the 3rd.  Even though it has slowed down quite a bit, there are still lots of people who have already participated and lots of great prizes to choose from, too.

Aw that is a possibility. 

I think selling any remaining prizes might be a good idea, especially any that were donated to the cause because then poor Shen isn't out more pieces from her private collection.  I know many people are gearing up for regional mini conventions/get togethers.  I just had a few money problems myself so I know funds can get tight quickly.  I'm sure there are still a few waiting to get their ducks in a row.

Maybe we should update the topic page with the current information as a memorial raffle to cover cost of care and expenses related to his passing?

Im so sorry Shen.

I think selling the remaining prizes is a good idea.

Thanks to everyone who has signed up in the last couple of days!  Your contributions make a HUGE difference.  I wish we had prizes for all of you because you're just so awesome!!

I don't get paid until Friday so I'll send some more then too

Thanks you guys It's still super hard to deal with, but each day will get a tiny bit better. Thankfully I have 3 other precious pups to help me cope. Dogs are the best medicine   I still owe $800 to the vet so any raffle ticket purchases will really help!

I'm going to join in!

My poor dog Shakey passed away over two years ago at the age of 17 due to some health issues

Shenanigans- I've never talked to you personally, but I am so very sad to hear about your adorable little Falcore's passing. Cuddle with the rest of your pups and they'll give you some much needed comfort at this time. And you'll always have the memories of your little guy
