Over the coming weeks, ThriftyFun will be making some changes to our email newsletters to try to accomplish two goals. The first is to decrease the size of emails we send out. And the second is to drive more traffic to ThriftyFun. For people who like to read the long version newsletter, the old format is one click away by clicking the "View Full Newsletter" link at top of every newsletter we send out.
Today's featured pets are: Shinook who, of course, loves to do all things Jack Russell and also helped raise a baby crow. Also, meet Ellee a three year old Sheltie who was a Christmas pup.
We are running low on pet tips, please send us your best advice.
Thanks to everyone who shared a pet with us recently. If you haven't shared your furry, feathered, or scaly family member yet, send in your story and photos today or maybe a pet tip. We can also post updated photos and information every six months. You just might win $25 in one of our weekly contests.

If you have questions about your pets our members might be able to help. Send us a request to post.
Note: If your pet is quite ill, including infections, poisoning, etc. please check with your vet. Please do not submit requests that would involve a diagnosis, as we do not have a vet on staff and you don't want to delay in caring for your pet family member.
If you have a solution to either of the featured guides highlighted in today's newsletter please share:

He loves to dig, hunt, and search for things. Shinook also like to swim, give kisses, go horse back riding with me, and make new friends. He was a father figure to a baby crow he found last spring under our evergreen tree. We raised it to an adult and named it Jett. This fall, he flew away. We miss him, but had so much fun with him. Jett loved everyone, especally Shinook.
