Welcome, Friends! We at Prairie Paws Rescue
want to thank you for dropping by our site to take a look at
the lovable animals that we have for
adoption.
We are dedicated to rescuing pets in bad situations.
Most of the animals you see here have been saved from cruel
or neglectful situations... and often from death.
Thanks to many kind-hearted
foster
parents, they are being well cared for until you can
give them a special place in your home and heart. If
you see one of the fur-kids on our site that you would like
to meet, please
give us a
call, and we'll set up an appointment for a visit.

A Big THANK YOU
to Kennedy & Friends! |
| |
 |
| |
When Kennedy Koch turned nine, she had a birthday party, and instead of receiving gifts for
herself, she asked party attendees to bring
something for the pets at Prairie Paws Rescue. What
a great idea! The pets at Prairie Paws Rescue
appreciate the items donated in honor of Kennedy's
ninth birthday.

Foster Homes Needed |
|
As many of you know,
Prairie Paws Rescue has no facilities for housing pets.
We depend upon foster homes to take in pets until permanent
homes are found. Fostering an animal can be as short as
overnight (or as long as several months. The animals
are placed in foster homes where nurturing begins, and
during that time their medical process is completed before
being adopted. If you are interested in becoming a
foster caretaker to a pet, please
contact us.

Prairie Paws Rescue Supports Our
Troops |
|
 |
Whitney, Kaye John's daughter,
was doing her part as a rescuer in Iraq as many rescue
groups all over the USA were sending her food to feed the
strays overseas on her off-duty hours. When she gets home ,
it will be great to have another volunteer to help Prairie
Paws Rescue. |
Another Great PAWS IN THE PARK
Event!
September 20, 2009: 1-4pm
PAWS IN THE PARK.... Our 3rd Annual
dog walk took place on September 20th, 2009! All
kinds of interesting, informative and fun activities took
place throughout the afternoon at McElroy Park. There
were Agility and Dog Obedience demonstrations, Red Cross Pet
First Aid & CPR demonstrations, vendors, food booths,
raffles, door prizes and more... It was fascinating to
see such a large variety of dogs of all sizes, colors and
shapes getting along so well together. They walked
proudly with their owners around the park, sat with them
during the demonstrations, and even did some "paw printing"
that will most likely go on the frig at home! All in
all, it was a great day, and we're hoping that our rescued
pups (like Macho in the picture below) will find a forever
home. A HUGE THANKS to everyone who participated!

DOG WALK-A-THON

2009
Prairie Paws Rescue wants to
thank everyone who came to our Dog Walk-A-Thon this
year. Your wonderful participation has made it
an annual event! |
|
2007:
Thanks to so many participants, our first Paws in
the Park Dog Walk-A-Thon was a great success!
Dogs from all over the county arrived with their
best friends in tow... men, women, children,
babies... all happy to have a chance to meet other
dogs and dog-lovers. Vibrant dog-talk flowed
continuously... stories about special dog-friends,
facts about health care, good grooming tips,
effective doggy diets (and human diets, too!),
characteristics of a good vet, traveling tips...
People-education took place on a grand scale while
their furry friends looked on and enjoyed the show
and the wonderful companionship of like-souls.
It was a SPECTACULAR day!
2008:
The second annual "Paws in the Park" took place on
Sunday, September 21, 2008, from 1-4pm at McElroy
Park.
Thanks to so many
participants last year, our first Paws in the Park Dog Walk-A-Thon
was a great success, and this year's event was even bigger and
better! All kinds of dog activities and demonstrations took
place. There was an exhilarating dog walk with two trails.
Dogs held out their paws and got their nails clipped. And,
informative demonstrations from Stacey Collins with agility-dog
Rilee, Great Plains Guide dogs of Jud, and Jamestown Police
Department's new K-9 dog took place. Each registrant received
a dog-oriented goodie bag which was enjoyed by all. Thanks to
public support for fundraisers such as this, Prairie Paws Rescue can
continue to save animals-in-need from threatening circumstances.

Paws Rescue? We have had a
successful year with over 160
adoptions. We are looking for "HAPPY
TAILS" photos of the adopted pets.
We would love
to include your adopted pets' photos

OOOOOOPS!!
Why
would you even ask me that?
I'm insulted!
Every time something goes missing
around here, everybody looks at me!
For your information, I don't even
wear that shade.
It doesn't flatter my complexion and
it tastes terrible.
Oops..!

several new pets over the weekend (8/28/2010). There are
Cockapoo's, Poodle mixes, Golden Doodles, etc. Take a look
at the two cuties to the right. We will be putting

pets looking for foster homes so they can get one-on-one
attention. Please contact us if you have any interest in
becoming a foster pet parent for Prairie Paws Rescue.
