The dog (and cat!) days of summer are only at the shelter
There is a “BC” cartoon circulating right now in which one character claims to have found the ultimate sun block. When the second character asks what it is, he is informed: “It is directions to Washington”. Yeah, no sultry dog days for us yet- we are having our typical often-dreary June weather.
Technically, summer doesn’t happen until next Sunday, but at the shelter, we are already having dog (and cat and kitten) days. Summer is a great time to bring a new pet into the family. With school over, soccer moms and baseball dads often have a little more free time, and the kids always want something to do.
With some extra time, the family can welcome a new pet into the home, and the kids can get more used to having additional responsibilities caring for a pet before school starts. We have some wonderful family dogs, large and small and in between, just waiting to share in the summer fun.
Also, we are getting in some darling kittens of all colors and descriptions. These little cuties are just two of our playful kittens. Bring the family in and see if we have your next best friend!
Photo op for people and their pets on Doggie Olympics Day
Have your photo taken with Fido or Fluffy by professional photographer Ed Streit. This is a fund raiser for the Humane Society, and Ed is donating his time and the $25 sitting fee goes directly to the shelter.
Photos will be put in a secure location online after the shoot, and 5×7 prints can be purchased for $2 each, including delivery.
Space is limited, so reservations are highly recommended. Call Rod or Verna at 642-4748 to reserve your spot. This is a wonderful opportunity for owners to get a professional quality picture of their beloved pets. Pictures will be taken this Saturday, June 21, from 1:00-4pm at the Long Beach Depot building (just North of Dennis Company).
Thanks, Ed!
