Creative for Hire

Today I met the most beautiful chocolate lab I’ve ever seen.  Her beauty not withstanding, Henna is just a very sweet and loving little girl.

Henna was part of a litter of puppies rescued by the Lake County Animal Services .  When she was being spayed by a local vet, they found that she had a heart murmur.   With a donation of an MRI, the full extent of her heart condition became apparent and she was diagnosed with a problem that is shared by humans and dogs, when she was born her heart didn’t change from a fetus heart that is fed by an umbilical card to a heart that worked independently once she was born.

Now it is clear that unless Henna receives surgery she may not see her first birthday.  The Lake County Animal Services are coming to the community to ask for help to pay for her surgery and allow her a full and healthy life.  They have set up a crowd funding site to allow everyone to contribute what they can toward Henna’s health care.  If 1500 people donate $1 each, Henna’s surgery will be paid for, and if 300 chip in $5 it will also be paid for- a very easy and painless way to make a difference.  Check out their site on Chip-In and donate what you can, please.

I also want to take this opportunity to say something that the amazing folks that run the Lake County Animal Services won’t say, they really can use some help for all the animals they save.   Though the crowd funding is strictly for Henna and will be used for her care, there are other furry souls that could also use some support.  Please consider visiting the Lake County Animal Services website and sending in a donation toward all the other furry folks in their care.  Rescuing is a passion and a service from the heart, let’s make that service just a bit easier and make it possible for them to save a few more furry souls by making a contribution to this great service to our community.

In addition, if you are considering family portraits for Christmas or high school senior portraits, Diane Davis Photography will make a donation of $25 per session for every session completed in the month of September.  For more information on commissioning a session with Diane Davis Photography, visit us , call us at 707-262-5891 or email info@DianeDavisPhotography.com.
