How does your shelter advertise/market their animals successfully?

[sickbxy]

The rescues I've been with do the typical pet finder, have their own web site and I had my personal foster site with newsletter which I had several people checking for new dogs on a weekly basis [ http://www.adoptapet.com/ ] which cross-posts to about 5 other sites. My fosters would be out on a daily basis with their adopt me bandanas which never worked but suceded in building a donation relationship with a major pet product distributer. Really, it was rare for me to have a foster for longer than 2 months. I never used craigslist because I honestly did not want locals adopting my dogs, I only found one local that passed the phone interview and homecheck.
