Bring Home a New Friend – National Puppy Day

By David Kraft on March 6, 2017 in Events, Flowers. 0 Comments

National Puppy Day is a grassroots effort to encourage people to foster, rescue and adopt puppies (and older dogs) from shelters. Established 10 years ago by Coleen Paige, an advocate of animal rights, the movement has gained acceptance globally - thanks primarily to the power of social media. Puppies bring so much love and joy into our lives, and we think a day that a campaign to make their lives better is a great idea. Sadly, there is a long way to go to give every furry friend a home. By the Numbers: Nearly 4 million dogs are surrendered to animal shelters across the country annually. Only one-third of those animals will be adopted into forever families, while 1.7 million dogs will be euthanized. With so many dogs languishing in shelters or losing their lives, National Puppy Day hopes to raise awareness and stop overpopulation and breeding-for-profit.  Read More about Bring Home a New Friend – National Puppy Day

As the year nears its end, the team at Nanz and Kraft Florists would like to thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special occasions all year long - and we look forward to providing the beauty and joy to life's important moments in the new year. With the holidays rapidly coming to a close, it is time to turn our eyes to New Year's Eve, and the parties and festivities we enjoy at this time of year. Whether you are the host of the party or are headed out to a friend's house to celebrate, flowers are the perfect way to decorate. You probably know that flowers have a language all their own. Over the years, specific blooms have come to represent certain events or emotions, and they often convey meaningful messages to the recipient. On New Year's Eve, many like to send white flowers. In the floral world, white blooms represent a new beginning and a clean slate - is there any better sentiment on New Year's Eve?  Read More about New Year’s Eve Floral Decor
