Pups on Parade
NOW October 11, 2008 -- MOVED from April 19, 2008!
Buckner Park
In our recent newsletter, we reported that Pups on Parade would be held on April 19th at Buckner Park.
In years past, we have held Pups on Parade in October and when we let the dogs know there had been a change,
they let us know they prefer October. Therefore, we have decided to move it back to October. Please mark your
calendar for October 11th and stay tuned for more details on the event!
Foster a Homeless Pet!
Fostering a pet is quite simple — it begins when you volunteer to care for a homeless pet in your home. You take the pet home from the shelter and provide love, nourishment and proper veterinary care until it finds a forever home, either through shelter contacts, personal visits or adopt-a-thons.
The Humane Society offers a variety of opportunities to foster. We need loving foster homes for the following types of pets:
- Pregnant cats and dogs - need foster homes from pregnancy until their offspring are 6 weeks old
- Mom pets with nursing babies
- Kittens
- Cats of all ages
- Puppies
- Dogs of all ages
- Injured or special-needs pets
- Pets waiting to be transported out of state
