B12 Hood River News, Wednesday, May 20, 2015 PET OF THE WEEK Lindy needs daily walks and lots of snuggles Lindy This week volunteers at Adopt A Dog have selected Lindy as the pro g ram’s adoptable pet of the week: Lindy is a sweet, adorable 9 month old Pittie mix girl weighing in at 45 pounds. She was actually adopted from us seven months ago, but the family just doesn’t have the time this pup needs and so she spent a lot of her days in a crate, or outside on her own, searching for trou- ble to get into. She is very playful with other dogs, adores kids, and still very much in that puppy stage, so chew toys are whatever she can find! She just seems to have fun no matter where she goes, or what she’s doing, but rope toys and squishy things are her favorite, so keep them nearby! Lindy hasn’t had much training, but boy, is she learning fast! She’s got some good doggie manners under her belt and is more than happy to learn as many tricks as she can, because TREATS RULE! Lindy has become a won- derful walker with the leash, comes when you call her name and she thinks cuddle time is awesome. Lindy needs a home where she can get daily walks and exercise, plenty of snuggles, and a de- voted family to call her own. She is current on shots, microchipped and spayed. The adoption fee for Lindy is $205. The fee to adopt is charged to recoup standard veterinary expenses. Since many of our dogs are in fos- ter, please call ahead to meet Lindy in Odell at the Hukari Animal Shelter 3910 Heron Drive, or call for more infor- mation at 541-354-1083. Adop- tion hours are Wednesday, 5- 7 p.m. and Saturday, 9-11 a.m. You can fill out an applica- tion online at our website, www.hoodriveradoptadog.or g, or download and scan and email to us at adopta- dog@gorge.net, or fax it in to 1-877-833-7166. We offer 24Pet- Watch microchips, which in- clude free registration into the 24PetWatch pet recovery service. For more infor mation visit www.24petwatch.com or call 1-866-597-2424.

Schedule is as follows: Friday, May 29, 4 p.m. Worldbuilding from the Ground Up with Miriam Forster Whether you‘re writing fantasy, historical, or con- temporary fiction, a vivid and vividly communicated world is always an asset to your story. This workshop will discuss worldbuilding at both the micro and macro levels, including the making (and breaking) of rules, how and when to draw inspira- tion from real life places, and the art of bringing your world to life through solid, specific description. Write Like a Best-Seller with Roland Smith Roland Smith will explain the step by step process he uses to write his books. It has worked for him for over 40 books in the past 25 years. “It will work for you if you are willing to do the work,” he said.

Free and open to the public. Sunday, May 31, 10 a.m. Hit with Gratitude: From Fact to Fiction with Lorie Ann Grover When trials hit, how do we run in triumph? When we have a blind spot for bless- ings, how do we embrace gratitude? Novelist Lorie Ann Grover leads those in- terested in writing stories arising from their own life experiences. With young adult novels springing from her own history, she’ll guide workshop attendees in cap- turing their memories, then assist them in turning their writing into fiction, and fi- nally experiment with the verse format. Don’t Write What You Know with Stasia Ward Kehoe We are often told to “write what you know” and that “to be a good writer, you must be a great reader,” but what do these clichés truly mean? In- spired by excerpts from great YA novels and fueled by im- prov games, writing exercis- es and g roup discus- sion, students will explore ways to use (or choose to ig- nore) catch phrases and con- ventional wisdom on the journey to becoming their own best writer selves. Walk With Ease canceled May 25, 27 The Walk With Ease program, which meets Mondays and Wednes- days from 8:30-9:30 a.m. at Columbia Gorge Community Colle ge’s Hood River campus, has been canceled for the week of May 25.
