Fall in Love. Win a Diamond.
Oh Dog! DeDe here…. yes, on a Saturday…. to tell you that Love is in the Air!!!
The ASPCA wants to help YOU find YOUR true love this Valentine’s season! So they are hosting a one-of-a-kind dating show!
On February 12th at 6PM Eastern time, you can watch a live Ustream video of some adorable shelter animals who are looking for their forever home!
There’s also going to be a party on Twitter. And check out this grand prize- a diamond pendant from Zales!
In addition, the ASPCA has given me a prize pack to share with one lucky reader. It includes: a jumbo “I love my shelter dog” tote, a Valentine’s Day heart collar, an ASPCA tote, an ASPCA orange tee, Walker’s Shortbread, and ASPCA wristband and magnet.
Is that cool or what?
To enter to win this prize, please comment below and tell us of YOUR ideal animal companion (offer open to residents of the US). Then be sure to attend the live Meet Your Match Dating Show this Tuesday at 6pm Eastern, and fall in love.
DISCLAIMER: I am not being compensated for this post. The ASPCA is providing the prize pack being given away.

February 9, 2013 at 7:59 AM
Thank you for helping spread the news! I’d love for lots of animals to find their true love this Valentine’s Day!
February 9, 2013 at 8:00 AM
Ohhhh, now that is truly a one-of-a-kind dating show!!!!
February 9, 2013 at 8:01 AM
Guaranteed to find love, no matter which you choose!
February 9, 2013 at 8:15 AM
February 9, 2013 at 8:03 AM
I sure do hope lots of hearts find each other!
February 9, 2013 at 8:05 AM
My ideal companion is one that shares my life and is willing to stick with me no matter what comes…And I’ve been lucky in that all my animal companions have been there with me start to finish…Gizmo is no exception…He never complains, he never says no and he’s always up for adventure…or a quiet snuggle
February 9, 2013 at 8:34 AM
Way to go Gizmo! You both found your perfect mate!
February 9, 2013 at 8:10 AM
Wonderful idea.
February 9, 2013 at 8:14 AM
What a great event this is! To find lovely foever homes for gorgeous animals for Valentine is a wonderful idea! *sniff*
I hope that lots of animals will find their family!
P.S the paw diamond pendant is soooo adorable!!!
February 9, 2013 at 8:50 AM
I know! I love it!
February 9, 2013 at 8:14 AM
Isaiah is my ideal companion. He has really come out of his shyness. He now sleeps with me every night and when I am home he can usually be found downstairs with me. He still has some moments when he gets scared and runs upstairs, but these are becoming more infrequent. He is simply a joy and makes me smile.
February 9, 2013 at 8:51 AM
That is wonderful!
February 9, 2013 at 8:27 AM
What a fabulous idea! It’s wonderful to tie in an adoption event with Valentine’s Day as the love of a dog is so unconditional and special and, to me, is the perfect representation of what the day is all about.
February 9, 2013 at 8:40 AM
i wish that lots of these pets will find their forever home and the event is a great way to celebrate valentines day
February 9, 2013 at 9:48 AM
What about the poor kitties? Are they to be left out?
February 9, 2013 at 9:51 AM
Actually grandma, that heart collar is for cats! woo woo woo!
February 9, 2013 at 9:49 AM
That’s such a cute idea.
February 9, 2013 at 9:57 AM
I know!!!! I hope it’s a huge success!
February 9, 2013 at 9:54 AM
Wish we had TWITTER…. that necklace is GORGEOUS.
February 9, 2013 at 9:57 AM
You got plenty of time to sign up!!!
February 9, 2013 at 9:56 AM
The posters are super sweet for the ad aren’t they?! What a great V Day idea…lovely pendant too. Who doesn’t want their doggy’s paws closer to their heart???? My Trev is my ideal little buddy…eternal foot and heart warmer, anytime snuggle bear and my faithful best friend!!!! I hope many sweet doggie bears get their forever homes through this new campaign!!!!
February 9, 2013 at 10:03 AM
Sounds like a super cool event…I hope we can tune in!
February 9, 2013 at 10:04 AM
Wonderful publicity for this event.
February 9, 2013 at 10:07 AM
Wonderful idea! One of the shelters here in my city is holding a pre-Valentine dinner/fundraising and will showcase the shelter dogs.
I hope both events will be very successful. Yey for shelter dogs!
February 9, 2013 at 11:50 AM
Have you seen the show “Dog With A Blog”?
You should consult your barrister…
February 9, 2013 at 11:53 AM
i saw it….. my blog is better than his!
February 9, 2013 at 11:56 AM
I concur!
February 9, 2013 at 11:50 AM
Great post, by the way!
February 9, 2013 at 12:36 PM
Shelter friends make the best pets. Thanks for highlighting the cause!
February 9, 2013 at 1:21 PM
The ASPCA is one of my favorite rescue organizations, so I will definitely be checking out their “Meet Your Match Dating Show” on Tuesday, though I won’t be adopting at the moment!
I am blessed with many ideal animal companions. I have my Boxer, Bailey, who is a lovable sweetheart, though she is a complete air-head! I have my wonderful kitty, Ocean, who is a naughty, but playful, little boy. A big, bear-of-a-dog Great Pyrenees, Teddy. And, my one true love, Juno, who is the most loyal, loving mutt you will ever meet!
DeDe: will you, Rumpy, and your kitty friends be adding any new companions to your family?
Thanks for sharing this!
February 9, 2013 at 1:36 PM
Hoping they have a great turnout!
February 9, 2013 at 1:43 PM
Love that paw diamond pendant. My favorite furry companion: a kitty. Always!
February 9, 2013 at 2:23 PM
Very nice. We just saw the ASPCA adopt van at the NJ pet expo

February 9, 2013 at 3:00 PM
Want to be my Valentine Rumpy?! lol
February 9, 2013 at 3:12 PM
I hear there’s romance in the air in Europa too!
February 9, 2013 at 3:30 PM
Do you indeed? lol
That would be telling wouldn’t it?!! lol
February 9, 2013 at 4:27 PM
Princess Gracie found her one true love, Prince Henri, at the Humane Society! I hope lots of doggies find their true love this Valentine’s Day!
February 9, 2013 at 8:33 PM
If I didn’t already have four, I’d be so happy to give a home to another. We are already one over our limit, maybe two … but they are such a joy.
February 9, 2013 at 9:00 PM
I think this is a wonderful idea. TW would prefer a lap cat but Pop loves me just fine. You don’t have to enter me since we don’t have a dog but maybe I can donate it to A Call 4 Paws.
February 9, 2013 at 10:33 PM
My ideal animal companion is dogs! I have three rescue dogs. Hope this event finds some dogs a home! I’m new to the twitter thing, but hope I can join!
February 10, 2013 at 1:59 AM
Love the idea, thank you for sharing. We already have two cats and two dogs plus a visiting neighborhood cat. Does the visiting possum count too? He eats dog food.
February 10, 2013 at 4:49 AM
What a great way to spend Valentine’s!! Yay! Take care

February 10, 2013 at 8:27 AM
Meet Your Match sounds like a great party! We’ll be there! My ideal animal companion is a dog. I generally lean towards medium to large dogs of any breed, although lately I really love the smarter breeds (Maya – Lab, Pierson – Aussie mix).
February 10, 2013 at 9:00 AM
I’m partial to the large breed dogs too…. woo woo!
February 10, 2013 at 11:34 AM
What a great campaign. Warm thoughts for such cold days – maybe more will turn on the show!
February 10, 2013 at 2:22 PM
I can’t enter but I’ll tell you anyway – my ideal companion is cuddled up next to me on the bed. She’s like a furry hot water bottle.
February 10, 2013 at 2:59 PM
Ideal companion, why a cat because Dad is allergic…but in a world that is unreal, we would have two cats and two Sibes; but we know SIbes and cats don’t often mix well and we are getting too old to have a challenge like that and we travel too much. sigh and that pendant is very cute! paw pats, Savannah
February 11, 2013 at 2:41 AM
Haha, can’t I just fail at diamonds and win love? ♥
February 11, 2013 at 5:54 AM
Hey, it’s all good!
