Their coats were combed to a fine sheen, their paws were perfectly manicured, and their eyes sparkled under the spotlights. When the time came for them to walk the runway, they paws-itively shined! Eleven lucky pups strutted their stuff at the first annual Project RUFFway benefit and fashion show, sponsored by Pure Puppy, making the event a howling success!

Did You Know
• One in four dogs dies of cancer? It is the number one killer of our canine friends, and accounts for half the deaths of dogs age 10 and older.
• 6 – 8 million cats and dogs enter U.S. shelters each year, and half of those are euthanized?
• Of the 1,880 animal cruelty cases reported to the media in 2007, dogs represented the most common victims (64.5%)?
Our Mission
The mission of the Bow Wow Buddies Foundation is to promote the health and welfare of dogs worldwide by focusing on finding foster and lifetime homes for unwanted dogs, promoting humane education and treatment, and investing in research and treatment for dogs devastated by illness and disease.
Current Initiatives 
Homing
Every dog deserves a loving home. The Bow Wow Buddies Foundation works with Camp Bow Wow doggy day care and overnight camps throughout the county to provide foster care and facilitate adoptions for homeless pets. Since 2003, we have found homes for over 2,500 dogs—and we plan to find forever homes for an additional 2000 dogs this year.
Health
Working to find a cure for canine cancer is our top priority. In addition to funding a yearly scholarship at the world-renowned CSU Animal Cancer Center, Bow Wow Buddies has launched Lend a Paw for the Cure, a campaign to raise money and awareness for the research and treatment of canine cancer.
Humane
All dogs have the same basic needs— clean food and water, shelter and love. Worldwide dog overpopulation leads to neglect, abandonment, abuse and suffering. Recently, the Foundation rescued 26 dogs from Greece, a country that has no large scale animal welfare infrastructure, yet faces some of the most horrific and violent cases of abuse and neglect imaginable. While it is true that dogs suffer everywhere, the Foundation has committed to helping the dogs of Greece through targeted programs including sterilization, humane education and outreach, and capacity building efforts for existing grassroots animal welfare workers.
