Rainbow Over Paw Parent And More Snow after Bingo Night

I was working on my computer today and I noticed it started to rain. Next thing I know I look out the window and everything is white.
This is so unusual, this kind of heavy snowfall twice in the season.

And last week there was the most beautiful rainbow stretching over Paw Parent.

It is wonderful to experience these amazing acts of nature in all their beauty undisturbed by tall buildings or bill boards.

On February 11th Paw Parent had it's second annual Bingo night fundraiser hosted by "Legendary Bingo"

It was such a hoot! For all of you who were able to make it "thank you" and I hope you had a good time and won one of our fabulous prizes.

Paula Malcomson, a huge animal lover, was there to help as a bingo hostess.

"Thank you Paula!"

For all of you who weren't able to come I hope you will be able to make it to the next event.

And now with very mixed feelings the news about the lost dogs. First the bad news: precious, little Sammy went over the rainbow bridge :(

We found evidence that the coyotes had gotten him. The discovery was extremely devastating and traumatic! But at least he didn't have to suffer through the cold, windy and rainy weather. We had a lovely ceremony for him and buried his remains in a grave with a breathtaking view of the valley and the mountains.

Good bye little Sammy! We miss you very much!

The good news are that Fernando was found and caught within hours of his escape. He is safely back at Paw Parent and is waiting for the perfect person and home to adopt him.

2nd Bingo Bash For Paw Parent, A Grant And Other Great News

2009 holds great promise for Paw Parent and we are moving steadily in the right direction.

After a long struggle Paw Parent's kennel plans have finally been approved by the Department of Regional Planning. Now it is the Department of Animal Control's turn to give its approval. I'm curious to find out what unexpected hoops they have in waiting.

Then there is the the Bingo Night Fundraiser for Paw Parent on February 11th at 7pm in West Hollywood at Hamburger Mary's. It was so much fun last year and I hope we will attract a big crowd.

Paw Parent just received our first grant from the Cesar Milan Foundation, yeahh!! Thank you, Cesar! You are awesome :)
I'm a huge fan and always try to be the calm assertive leader. I have ways to go but at least I'm on my way.

And last but not least, the great news about Molly the unbelievable, sweet, playful and affectionate cat. She got adopted by a couple and their 9-year-old son. They love her so much and it is a perfect match.
These moments keep me going as a rescuer.
