Sparky's Links

Adopt-A-Dog: Adopt-A-Dog, based in Greenwich, CT with a shelter in Armonk, NY, describes itself as a "service dedicated to finding good, permanent homes for the many wonderful dogs that are waiting, either in shelters or private homes, to be adopted." That may be so, but for Sparky they were her Guardian Angels. I dread thinking about Sparky's fate if it weren't for the kind-hearted, hard-working people at Adopt-A-Dog. Adopt-A-Dog has many wonderful dogs, and cats, just waiting to share their love with you.

Pet Rescue: Miami-based Pet Rescue, Inc. is a non-profit organization devoted to saving the lives of homeless and abandoned pets and to finding these animals loving homes since 1982. Pet Rescue, a no-kill animal shelter, provides care to unwanted cats and dogs and attends their needs until the suitable home is found, offering a second chance at life!

Animal Haven: Animal Haven's mission is to carefully place cats and dogs in loving homes, as well as give lifetime care for those who cannot be placed. Animal Haven is based in New York City.

Pets Unlimited, based in San Francisco, is a nonprofit community services organization dedicated to ensuring the humane care and treatment of companion animals. Their vision is for every cat and dog to live a healthy and happy life in a loving home.

PilarToons: This is where you can learn all about Pilar Newton, the amazing illustrator who has brought Sparky to life in the pages of every Sparky adventure. Although she has a great Web site, the one thing no Web site can capture is this girl's zest for life. She has more energy than Con Ed.

danPhotoArt: This is Deb Nicoud's site. You can see some of her art in the Sparky Art section of this Web site. I met her at Adopt-A-Dog's "Puttin' on the Dog," festival in September 2003, and I'm glad I did. She liked Sparky and her story so much, she did the artwork for FREE!! For funky art at affordable prices, this is the place to go.

KennethHess.com: This is the main Web site of Kenneth Hess, a wonderful guy and jack-of-all-trades who just happened to design this Web site. For me, the Sparky books have been a lot of fun, and one of the main benefits is meeting so many great people. Kenneth definitely definitely falls into that category.
