Sunday, July 12th at our Petco Adoption event, one of our babies came back to us. The family had health problems come up and couldn't keep her. Amanda got adopted back out within an hour. The REAL story is here: one night at her new home, the 3 year old little girl was sleep walking outside and Amanda went and woke the mother up. Amazing story... the little girl was saved from harm and brought back in... thanks to Amanda! Who says animals aren't smart!2nd annual "Pup In The Park" is upon us - May 9th. Check out the details.
Santa Paws again at PETSMARTand pics with Santa at PETCO! We took pictures of people & their pets with Santa throughout the month of December and $5 for each picture will be donated to the Shelter. We took 154 pictures for a $770.00 donation last year from Petsmart. Things were a little slower this year due to the economy but we were at three locations this time around... that brought things up a little - we're estimating we took the same amount of pictures as last year..
Thank You Petsmart and Petco!
