Meet dogs, fosters and buy merch Oct. 23 at Equality Fest

Foster parents, supporters and adoptable dogs will be on hand Oct. 23 at the Gulf Coast Equality Fest on Harrah's Great Lawn. We'll also be selling some sweet TDR merchandise for those early Christmas shoppers. TDR will be there from 11 a.m. until 6 p.m. Come and meet your new best friend!

Time to shop: Coast artist donates 100% of proceeds to TDR!

Artist Julien Byrne of Pass Christian is a board member and longtime supporter of Tired Dog Rescue. In the past, you may have purchased a ticket for the chance to win one of his amazing lamps offered through a TDR raffle. He also makes pendants, vases and many other items.

Rescue is a big deal to Byrne and his spouse. There are five dogs, all rescues, in the household, and two of them are TDR adoptees. Recently Byrne decided to donate every penny he receives from his artwork to Tired Dog Rescue! Yes, you read that right! That's why we can't encourage you enough to visit julienbyrne.com, look over the gorgeous pieces there and start your Christmas shopping now. Then, spread the word to your family and friends about this tremendous opportunity to acquire a one-of-a-kind piece of art and help save and re-home at-risk dogs. You can also see Byrne's work on the Rabbit Trace Glass Studio Facebook page.
