(April 21, 2015) Tyler, Texas – After being named the 2014 Friskies® Writer of the Year at the Cat Writers Association Awards Banquet last November, AdoptAShelter.com’s Dusty Rainbolt was awarded two Maxwell Medallions at the annual Dog Writers Association of America Awards Banquet in New York City.

Dusty was also awarded CWA’s .Hartz® Every Day Chewable Vitamin Award, the Hartz® Milk Replacement for Kittens Award, as well as the CWA Muse Medallion for Excellence for best Online Article on Health and General Care.

Dusty received the DWAA Maxwell Awards in the categories of  “Online Behavior & Training Article” for her article ‘When Is It Time To Say Goodbye To Your Dog?’ and the best “Online Article- Rescue” for, ‘Ten Reasons To Foster A Shelter Dog’.  Both were published on Dogster.com.

Dusty rescued her first cat in 1986. Since then she has rescued and re-homed over 1,500 cats and kittens, 500 of them bottle babies.  Oh, and she’s pretty good at writing, too,” says AdoptAShelter.com founder and CEO Chris Ruben.  “It is a privilege and pleasure to have her as a long-time partner in helping animals.”

Also at the Awards banquet, Ambassador Susan M. Ewing presented Bernadette Kazmarski with the AdoptAShelter.com ‘Adopt-A-Homeless-Dog’ award.  It is presented to the body of work that best describes the plight of homeless dogs, the joy of dog adoption, and/or improving the quality of life of dogs in a shelter environment.
