A RECENT PUPPY MILL RESCUE

 

 
 

 

 
 

 

     You may have heard of the recent puppy mill rescue in Nebraska where 99 animals were rescued.  Several groups came together to rescue and help the dogs, and Prairie Paws Rescue now has six pups from that rescue who have just arrived.  (Please see their pictures below. )  Hearts United took 40 of the dogs and put together a video which we hope you will watch.  Just click here to read more about them on their blog

 

 

        

 

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!

 

 

     

         Kennedy Koch turned nine on Saturday, August 30th.  She had a 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.

We hope to see you at our next

MEET & GREET!

Saturday, Feb. 13th: 10am-2pm

 

 

 

     Prairie Paws Rescue has a "Pet Meet and Greet" the 2nd Saturday of every month at TSC - located at 1100 5th Ave SE.  Come join us during the "Jamestown Cabin Fever Celebration". We will be serving refreshments to raise money to help out our rescued pets. The next one is planned for February 13 from 10am-2pm. Available for adoption are kittens and small to large breed dogs and puppies. At these events we do NOT do on-the-spot adoptions, but take applications during the event for potential adopters and new homes.

      Please consider adopting one of our special buddies. 
     As always, thank you so much for coming to our Meet and Greet and for your continued kindness and support!

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!

PAWS IN THE PARK...

DOG WALK-A-THON

2007 - 2008 - 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.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS...

COLD WEATHER ALERT

 

     We have recently taken in a number of stray animals with severe frostbite.  Our sweet kitten Miranda is one victim who lost part of her ear. We are currently treating several other stray animals who are suffering from frostbite including one adult cat who completely lost both ears and her tail. Her name is Missy-NaPhew (missing a few) body parts due to the COLD weather. 

 

    Please provide shelter, warmth and care for your own animals as they too can suffer from loss of body parts and even their lives if not properly protected and cared for. Prairie Paws is providing vet care for these stay animals until they are back on their way to recovery.  Your donations to help these innocent strays is appreciated.     

Cold Weather Tips

 

Brrrr…it’s cold outside! The following guidelines will help you protect your companion animals when the mercury dips.

1.  Keep your cat inside. Outdoors, felines can freeze, become lost or be stolen, injured or killed. Cats who are allowed to stray are exposed to infectious diseases, including rabies, from other cats, dogs and wildlife.
