Hello,
I've been a member of here for a bit and I'd like to get stuck in to help some super rescues.. I'm not too sure of the site yet but I'll get the hang of it soon!
I do pet portraits for friends and I'm currently a design student at the University of Leeds. I'd love to do somehing arty to contribute to this wonderful site and I'll work out how soon!
I don't have any pets at the mo, as I'm away at uni, but I'm often at home with our GSPs as I miss them so much!
Anyway, I'll look forward to getting to know people here!
Charlotte

Hi Charlotte Welcome to the site. Rescues are always grateful in anyway that you may be able to help out with them. With your design skills maybe something like posters would be good. Portraits are usually very popular so maybe you could offer to do them with some of the money going towards a particular rescue. Any problems you have with the site let us know. There are plenty of mods about to help you out Amy

it does seem like a brilliant, friendly site.. such a good idea.. i'd love to get on with a portrait or two while i'm off for easter (if anyone wants one!) could you let me know how i could go about doing this? or should i wait for a specific fundraiser? here's one i did for my neighbour (hope it works)! posters too - just let me know! whereabouts would be best to post to offer these things? sorry! Charl

Hiya and Welcome to TRPD We have a little auction going on at the minute that you could add an offer of a portrait into. Otherwise im sure your mailbox will soon be full of commissions. Hope you have fun and if you need any help there's always one of us about Sian x

Hi Charlotte .. I have just joined today .. tempted by your lovely portraits ! I have a GSP also - one of my four dogs ... she was a solid black but now is 14 1/2 years old so has lots of grey hairs. She has been such a great dog and I used to work her a bit when we were both younger and fitter! x naomi

Thanks everyone! i noticed you had been tempted bullt! i think GSPs are wonderful dogs.. we lost our first GSP, our golden oldy nearly two years ago at 15.. she used to be solid liver but her face and legs went almost completely white! we currently have a 14 year old, a ten year old and an 11 month old!
Thanks Jacky.. think I'm getting used to the site a bit now.. i'd love to order a GSP sized coat for our old girl but i'll get in touch when i've measured her properly!
Thanks again,
Charl

Welcome and congratulations on your gift. The portraits look fantastic. Another way, after the auction, if you want to raise money for a rescue or TRPD is to set a price and then give a percentage donation to the rescue of your choice. You could I am sure offer this in one of the stores or as a special. possibly in this thread petcraftproject.proboards24.com/index.cgi?board=Resqeventsunless Al comes up with a better idea
