DogCaption Cards Gives ‘Em Something To Be Happy About …
All The Way To The Bank
New Online Affiliate Fundraiser Program Benefits Animal Rescue

FREDERICKSBURG, Virginia – September 1, 2009 –DogCaptions founders Richard Stone and Viveca Stone-Berry are announcing the launch of DogCaptionCards.com, an internet-based affiliate fundraising program to benefit animal rescue and shelter organizations. 

 DogCaptionsCards are 5”x7” note cards featuring man’s best friend offering snippets of sage advice, comfort, encouragement and cheer.

·       “Today is the first day of the rest of your smells.”

·       “Bad hair should never ruin a great day.”

·       “Look tough…and never let them smell cookies on your breath.”

·       “Hold on tight. It’s going to be a bumpy ride!”

·       “Psst. You just stepped in poop.”

According to the results of a 20-year research study led by James H. Fowler and Nicholas A. Christakis, happiness is contagious. “DogCaption Cards aim to help the sender and receiver “catch happiness” and pass it on to our best friends in need,” states Stone-Berry. “It is no joke that funds are low. With or without a recession, money is always tight in the animal rescue world. These sales add up, and will increase an organization’s coffer.”

The DogCaption Cards Affiliate Fundraising program pays a 25% commission on direct sales through an affiliate’s website and a 7% commission on “team” sales. “Every rescue is supported by a team --- volunteers with websites, blogs, and social marketing pages of their own.” Says Stone-Berry. “Our program makes it easy for anyone to fundraise for
their rescue, and earn extra money for themselves and their pets.”

Card pack prices range from $4.99 for the “Don’t worry…be Yappy” Mini-Pack, to $9.99 for “Yippee! Happiness is Contagious” Pack, $19.95 for the deluxe “Barker’s Dozen Friendship Pack,” and $49.95 for the “Christmas Card/Thank You Card” Holiday Bundle Pack. 

Vital & Fun Dog Caption Card Facts:

·       Hunter, Richard Stone’s dog, is featured in multiple photos, due more to accidental placement than to a photogenic appearance. And she works for cookies.

·       Every DogCaption fur friend wears a collar with an identification tag, including indoor cats. “A lost pet is no laughing matter. Tragically, without proper ID, 90% of lost pets never make it back home” states Stone-Berry.  

·       Each card acts as an “ambassador” to promote pet adoptions. The back of every card suggests volunteer opportunities and provides information on locating neighborhood shelters.

·       Every order includes a “goodie.” The September 2009 goodie is a “Buy 2 Get 1 Free” Dog/Cat/Friend Tag. This offer is provided by LuckyPet.com to help customers “keep track of all their friends.”

·       Immediate customer satisfaction. Upon completion of the internet sale, the customer receives a thank-you email with links to the “Funniest Dog Pack on the Net,” the “Amazing Health Benefits of Pets, Friendship and Laughter,” and a “Friendship Card Log” for making a list of friends and reasons to send them a piece of “fun-mail.” They’re even linked to the post office to buy stamps!

·       DogCaptions loves cats too. Funds raised will help purrs as well as pups.
 

DogCaption’s Motto is “In the perfect world every home would have dogs and cats, and every cat and every dog would have a home
