  • 1.  QUESTION: Would you use this children's song to help kids understand that care is needed for dogs every single day?

    🤓 👋
    My name is Beth Cherryholmes Miller. I'm the founder of a nonprofit called Wagtown. We help communities become more responsibly an authentically dog friendly.  A huge component of my work is the potential impact of children on animal advocacy. To that end, I created a K-4 curriculum for kids to learn dog safety, about dogs with jobs, how to read their body language, how to care for them, and their role in our lives. In order to reach children with easy-to-understand tools about breed discrimination, I wrote and published a children's book called "Tucker Finds His Forever Home." In the book, young learners follow a pit-mix young pup through the shelter experience. It teaches them about the impact of the journey for acceptance and forever love.

    🎶 But, that is not all I want to do to reach these little advocates in the making. I wrote and recorded the song for feedback from animal lovers and those who fight for them. I would LOVE your feedback. The better it is, the more young minds we can fill with the song title, "I Love My Puppy. Every. Single. Day.

    Please take a listen and let me know: LINK HERE

    I totally loved this! I especially appreciate that the dog(s) shown in the video are all wearing external identification, so often that is overlooked. Now I have the song stuck in my head. Thanks!

    This is so cute.  I'm going to pass it along to my co-worker to use when she has the younger kids at our rescue camp, if that is ok?  
    Love to share it with our adopters with young pups (I mean kids, not pups, kids.).  We already have a coloring book we print for kids.
