NEWS AND EVENTSHSPC Week 11/21
Fosters - We need some foster homes. #1. A sweet Shepherd type (but only about 30 pounds) and her 8 newborn pups. Needs a quiet place to nurse her puppies. As usual, we will furnish all supplies, vet care, etc that they might need. Call Julie or Kay at the shelter--227-6166, and let me know, too.
Our Kroger cards brought us $479 for October. If you have one, please remember to use it. If you need one--we just got some more! Don't forget our 2006 Day Planners. They are on sale at a store near you, the shelter, and by mail.
Check the link to our website - Community Dayplanner Or go to www.warmhearts.org, and click on the headline about Day Planners, for a list of outlets, and a mail order form.
Interested in taking puppies to visit folks in nursing homes? Contact Christina at ramseyresources@aol.com
Kuranda Beds - Want to do something nice for the shelter dogs? Donate a Kuranda bed. Heres how: go to www.kuranda.com and click on donate a bed. Select our state and then select HSPC. Choose the size bed you want to donate. The choices are: Large, $54 and X-Large, $64. (The large ones are big enough for any of our dogs)
These beds have been tested by our Ozzie. Ozzie loves the bed and, believe me, if Ozzie can't destroy it, nobody can. HSPC will be notified of your donation, and the bed will be shipped directly to HSPC. These are indestructible, raised beds, which will keep our dogs off the cold concrete floors, and also help them to have a clean place to sleep (or lounge).
If you have a particular dog you want to donate a bed for, let me know, and I will see that he/she gets it. Bing, Camille, Lily, LittleFeet, Brent, Sammie, Sandra and a few others already have their beds, and are enjoying them.
Whiskers at the Mall. Friday November 25 and Saturday November 26-- If you would like to help at our mall store, contact Chris at ellischris@uams.edu He always needs help, and this is such a busy weekend at the mall!
Holiday pictures of your animals..we will be offering this at the new Bath Junkie shop at Bowman Curve on December 3 and 4th. From 11-3. Tell you friends to be sure to get a picture of their pets with Santa. Five pictures for $15. I also have posters if you can put some up. Bedford Camera is donating the photographer and the supplies, so all money goes to our animals! ***If you would put up a poster for this at your work place, or neighborhood stores, let me know and I will either fax or email one to you.
