Are you a mutt (ala Obama) or a minority?
Do you own a four-legged mutt?
Do you live in Southern California?
Join me and other mutts on Sunday, January 18, at the Pasadena Doo Dah Parade, the hip alternative to the city's annual Rose Parade. Our theme is "Mutts for Marrow." We'll raise awareness of the need for minority bone marrow donors as we walk the six-block parade route with our mutts. We'll also be throwing out Milk Bones, Live Savers and information about becoming a donor.
Krissy Kobata, a young hapa in search of her bone marrow match, will be joining us. She's pretty enough to be a Rose Queen and quirky enough to be a Doo Dah Queen.
If you or your dog would like to join the march, please let me know by Monday, January 12. (susancarrier@sbcglobal.net). There's a modest $10/person charge for participating in the parade. Dogs walk free. And, of course, there's no charge to come and watch and cheer us on.
