We've moved!

 We've had a few people mention to us that we haven't posted or updated here lately.  We turned our attentions to Facebook and our website quite a while back and only use this blog as an archive of pictures and stories that we don't want to lose.  If you'd like to follow what we're doing now, please join us on our Facebook page facebook.com/4pawpals or at our website pawpalsofclintoncounty.org.  Hope to see you there!  Thank you!

So Many Homeless Pets in Need!

Foxy is recovering from heartworm treatment thanks to the generosity of donors like you! There are many more just like her that can be saved. No donation is too small (or too large). Please help us help them! Thank you for caring!

Harry's First Christmas in His Forever Home!

It's pictures like this one that just warm your heart! We've done updates on Harry (Rusty when he was at our shelter) before, but we just had to share this one. Harry is an older guy that wasn't in very good shape when we first saw him. He had skin and hair loss issues and problems with his eyes. He honestly didn't have much of a chance to be adopted. Tracey, one of our volunteers, didn't want his last days to be spent in a shelter without a family. She contacted rescues hoping to save him. Miracles do sometimes happen and Harry was taken in by Eileen and Young at Heart Pet Rescue. From there he was adopted into the wonderful home where this picture was taken. Thank you so much to everyone that has a part in making stories like this happen!

Don't forget homeless pets this holiday!

Baby, it's cold outside!

Now that the weather is turning colder, it's time to stop and consider our furry friends and how to prepare them for winter. Here is a link to an article from The Humane Society of the United States that has some good information.

Sorry!

I would like to apologize for our lack of posts lately. I kind of got away from using this blog for a while. We weren't getting a whole lot of traffic on it and it was a little frustrating. We were putting most of our energy into our page on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/4pawpals and recently started a website http://www.pawpalsofclintoncounty.org. It looks like they have added a couple of features to allow this blog to be a little more like a website, so I might mess with this a little over the next week or so and see what I can do with it. It takes more spare time than I have to manage several different sites, so another apology in advance if the results are disappointing.
Thanks so much to all of you that have followed this blog! It was our first attempt to promote Paw Pals beyond our page on Petfinder and it has been fun. Several volunteers came to us after reading about us here and have made a huge difference in the lives of the pets at our shelter. That's what it's all about so it's definitely been worth it!

Sisters Become a Part of the Family

Sisters, Shilo and Butterball, now have a family of their own. As you can tell from all the smiling faces, both two-legged and four-legged family members seem pleased. We wish them the best and thank them for giving two wonderful pups a new home! Have fun with your new playmates!
