In 2018, Follow Me Dog Training LLC teamed up with Intermission Beer Company for a fundraising night to help raise money for FETCH a Cure. FETCH a Cure is a 501 ©(3) non-profit organization focused on improving the quality of life for our pets. Working with pet owners and the veterinary community, FETCH is furthering pet cancer awareness, education, and treatment. We hold the fundraising night in late October or November of each year since November is Canine Cancer Awareness Month.
Give Back and Bingo Night brings people into the brewery games of bingo and a raffle, all monies donated to raffle tickets and bingo cards are going directly to FETCH a Cure at the end of the evening. Representatives from FETCH a Cure are present to talk to any and all that are interested. Before the night is through a toast is raised to all the dogs (and cats) that have lost their lives to cancer, but also to those that have survived and those that are still fighting. Approximately 1 in 4 dogs will develop cancer in their lifetime, and almost half of all dogs over age 10 will get cancer. Renée has lost 4 dogs to some form of cancer and she is sure they won't be the last no matter what she does to prevent it. Follow Me Dog Training has been involved in FETCH a Cure, in some manner, since 2008 and was so happy to be able to bring this night into the community.
