What would Valentine's Day be without a little puppy love? Eagle Radio debuted its Puppy-Grams this year. Director of Promotions Shannon Towns called it a fun way to celebrate Valentine's Day and benefit the Golden Belt Humane Society.
"Eagle Radio teamed up with the Golden Belt Humane Society and GB Tarp Company to bring you guys Puppy Grams this Valentine's Day," she said. "It was $25 to participate. That got you 15 minutes of puppy kisses, puppy snuggles, and a little candy with a little Valentine's message."
Participants could choose a puppy or an older dog for their Puppy-Gram. Eagle Radio and Golden Belt Humane Society staff made several stops within 15 miles of Great Bend Wednesday between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. to deliver the special gifts.
"We talked about doing this last year and ran out of time," Towns said. "This year, we were able to go into it full force and we're hoping to grow it again next year."
Puppy-Grams may be extended beyond the 15-mile radius next year so more people can enjoy the unique surprise. All proceeds from the Puppy-Grams benefit the animals at Golden Belt Humane Society.
