NEWS AND EVENTS-- HSPC Events 3/21/05
Rescued Dogs - Thanks to everyone who helped with the rescued dogs this weekend. I heard it went quite well. We can still use help, so any time you have a free hour or two, consider stopping down.
Saturday, March 26- Whiskers at the Mall. If youd like to help at the store, contact Chris at: Ellischris@uams.edu
Our Puppy Love program needs more volunteers. There are more facilities wanting visits than we have volunteers to go. If you would like to learn more about this program, contact Patty, at pjorwall@episcopalcollegiate.org
Day Planner - If you want to have your pets picture in our 2006 Dayplanner, let me know and I will send you a page purchase form We are limiting the number of pages, so it will be first come; last year we had to turn folks away! We also have updated information on the Warm Hearts website. See the info on the web site - Community Dayplanner
Short Term Homes - We are still looking for some short-term fosters for some of our animals that would benefit from time away from the shelter (who wouldnt). Some time spent in a loving home might increase confidence and social skills, and make them more adoptable. If you are interested, or have any questions, please give me a call: 224-7859 or email info@warmhearts.org
All day, every day---help is needed walking, bathing, playing with the dogs and cats of HSPC. The more time you spend with them, the more adoptable they become. You dont need to schedule a timeif you have some time available, just come on down. Were open 11-6 every day, and until 8PM Mondays and Fridays. Some new volunteers have been spending a lot of time with them, and they really appreciate it!
One of our volunteers had put racks with poop bags by each door. Please take some and pick up after the dogs you walk! Now that it is nice weather, people will be spending more time outdoors with the animals. Lets all help keep it clean!
Adoptions: Sylvester; Madonna; Jonathan; Jonas; Speckles; Madeline Sue; Snuggles; Bobby; Cherish; Elmo
