"Paws in the Park"
Walk-A-Thon |
|
For
the past two years we have had fabulous Walk-A-Thons at
McElroy Park in Jamestown. It's truly wonderful to see
so many people/pups from our community get together and
enjoy a nice walk in the park! Take a look at some
pictures from the last two years:
2007 or
2008
We're definitely looking forward to another great "Paws in
the Park" Walkathon next year! |

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. All rescued pets are
checked by a veterinarian and vaccinated before they are released into
foster homes. If you are interested in becoming a
foster caretaker to a pet, please contact us.
Some Basic
Requirements: Foster homes must have a city
permit and cannot take in more than two foster pets at one
time. All personal pets in the home that are more than
three months old must be licensed and vaccinated, and the
homeowner must have a good reputation for caring for
animals. |
