First Christmas at Paw Parent

Welcome to the Paw Parent blog!

This is a new and exciting way to keep everybody posted on what’s happening here in the boonies. As some of you know, Paw Parent is very young; it has been in existence only since June. It has been very exciting but also very challenging. So much to learn and so much to do!

The work never ends. But is has definitely been very rewarding. To see the animals enjoying themselves on Paw Parent’s five acres, knowing that they are out of harm’s way, is so comforting.

Winter has certainly arrived at Paw Parent, and the dogs experienced their first snow. It was the heaviest snowfall in 20 years! I was more than excited, and so were some of the dogs. They LOVED it! The wind and the cold didn’t seem to bother them in the least, while others like poor old Emily really struggled with it. But the snow is all gone now, except on the nearby mountains.

There are currently three dogs and three cats for adoption here at Paw Parent. If you would like to add a new member to your family, please take a look at them on our For Adoption page. They are all fabulous and cannot wait to make someone a terrific friend.

We will be celebrating our first New Year’s here and are looking forward to all the goals we are trying to achieve in 2009, such as the acquisition of a kennel license and the building of a comfortable and spacious dog kennel. We also would like to reach out more to the area community and see how Paw Parent can be of help.

If any of you would like to volunteer your time to help the animals, please get in touch with us. We are short handed and any extra help is greatly appreciated. We also are in constant need of funds and materials to keep Paw Parent going.

Thank you and happy New Year!
