Top 10 Reasons to Become a Golden Paw Insider Member

1. Free Expert Advice. Get marketing, fundraising, and operational advice from NAPRP staff and experts in the humane community. (If we don't know, we'll do our best to find out!)

2. Free Books. When you join, you get copies of two pet books: Happy Hound: Develop a Great Relationship with Your Adopted Dog or Puppy and Happy Tabby: Develop a Great Relationship with Your Adopted Cat or Kitten.

3. Free Teleconferences to keep you informed on the latest trends, techniques and issues in the humane world. (Check out this page for descriptions of past teleseminars, the recordings are archived in the member area, so you can listen at your convenience.)

10. A Community of Like-Minded Individuals Focused on the Same Things You Are! We've worked with animals and it's not always easy. Share your experiences with all those goofy cats and dogs we have chosen share our lives with; we'll understand! If you're struggling with marketing, fundraising, or simply getting organized, share your experiences with a supportive group that's focused on your success.

As NAPRP grows, we'll be adding more resources. Tell us what you need. Our focus is on our membership. We aren't lobbying Congress or tied up in politics or judgments on limited admission (no-kill) versus open admission organizations.

We are committed to remaining neutral with no ties or obligation to any one large humane organization. Our goal is to serve our members to the best of our ability without any conflict of interest or show of favoritism.
