    Jan 21 2026

    Author Marshall Silverman discusses his latest book, My Dog Red as well as his other works. Purchase his books through your local bookstore, on Amazon, or follow the link for his author page.

    January 25 marks the 10 year anniversary of Rosie Fund. We're looking forward to another year of sponsoring and promoting senior and harder-to-adopt dogs. Our goal is to continue to expand our reach and work with more shelters and rescue groups. Your support is what makes all this possible! To celebrate our 10th anniversary, we'll be kicking off a 10 for 10 fundraiser. You can donate through RosieFund.org, Venmo, Facebook and Instagram.

    Last year was our all-time high as we filmed, promoted, and sponsored 79 dogs at KC Pet Project, Always & Furever, Mid-America Bully Breed Rescue, PAWS KC, and Pawsitive Tails

    Since our founding in 2016, Rosie Fund has sponsored 355 dogs and filmed and promoted 599 dogs. Thanks to you and our volunteers, almost $32,000 of donations have provided Rosie Life Starter Kits, helped with adoption fees, and covered medical expenses for dogs that found their forever home.

    Music for this episode is provided by alternative string duo, The Wires. Visit them at TheWires.info. Learn fiddle and cello-fiddle online — even if you've never played before — from Laurel Morgan Parks and Sascha Groshang at FiddleLife.com.

    Make a donation at RosieFund.org or through our Facebook page. You can contribute by making a purchase from the store on our website or buying a t-shirt at Bonfire.com. Also check out our page on BarkYours, the online mall with gifts for people who love their dogs.

    Another wonderful way to support Rosie Fund and create beautiful artwork of a beloved pet is to book a session with Claire Shelley at BLegendaryPhotographyCreations.com. For every referral from Rosie Fund, Claire will donate $100 or 10% of the order total, whichever is greater. This does not apply to designated fundraising campaigns like the Pooch Playoffs that already support charities or to the gift vouchers that Claire donates to the Rosie Life Starter Kits.

The four-book series is available at Leokadia’s Amazon store linked in the description. These books are entertaining and informative gifts for children ages 3-8 and parents will enjoy them, too.
