Resources and Web Site Updates

Have you trolled the MSRH web site lately?  There are many new sections.  “Waiting in the Wings” is a brand new section to inform you about dogs in the MSRH “inventory” that are not yet listed on “Looking for Homes”.  Check out the new ”About MSRH” section within “Our Organization”.  Karen will tell you how MSRH came about!  There are also new / revised pages regarding donations, volunteering and our sponsors!  And check out ”Our Resources”.  There’s a section for Schnauzer / pet owners that provides information about the Schnauzer breed, estimated one-time and recurring pet costs and some words of wisdom from “The Dog Whisperer”.  See ”Merchandise” for information on how to order your T-Shirts (and future items) that help support MSRH efforts!  Want to read some cute Schnauzer / dog stories and poems?  Check out the “Poems & Stories” section.  Want to know about upcoming MSRH events?  Then “Events” is the section for you.  Can’t put your hand on one of The Schnauzer’s Paw newsletters?  No worries….they’re posted in “Our Resources” as well.  This “News & Results” section will be updated throughout the year with important information along with results from our great MSRH fundraisers and photos from past events!

Do you have thoughts or ideas on how to continue to grow and improve the MSRH web site?  Drop Rick a note at webmaster@msrh.org !!  We want the web site to be one that’s useful, up-to-date and one that you’ll visit often!
