Come out to visit us at our last event of the year as we participate in the Waxahachie Junior Service League Christmas Market and Gift Show at the Waxahachie Civic Center on Saturday, December 5th from 10a-5p.  We will have our adoption trailer on hand and want to see you there if it is the right time for you to add a furry bundle of love to your family.  We will also have our merchandise booth set up with lots of wonderful gifts for you or that pet lover on your gift list.  100% of merchandise sales and donations go directly to our animal shelter to help the homeless animals in our community.


We hope to see you at  this yearly event featuring unique gifts; clothes, jewelry, antique lamps, baby gifts, gourmet food and mixes, home decor and Christmas decorations.

Howl-O-Ween goes to the Dogs

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

We had some of the cutest contestants at the 7th Annual Bow Wow Howl-O-Ween Hustle that was held in beautiful Bluebonnet Park in Ennis this year. The winner of the 1 mile fun run/walk was Jennifer Williams and her German Shepherd “Sasha” – they were dressed as the tortoise and the hare. For the first time, we had someone win two contests — Norma Tosch and her lab “Chloe” came dressed as Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf dressed in grandma’s clothes (complete with big reading glasses – hilarious), they won the best dog costume and owner pet combo costume. The fastest tail in Texas went to Kennette Davis and her Lab Mattie Mae. Our most expressive eyes contest winner was Susanne Voss and her Heinz 57 fluff ball “Ginger” and the best trick for a treat went to Valerie Morphis and her toy poodle “Maxwell”.

We raised over $5,000 for the event and kept costs low during preparations by utilizing donated items and purchasing “extras” with gift cards that we get for recycling ink cartridges.  Little items can make a big difference – so be sure to help us out by turning in empty ink cartridges and toner (all sizes and brands) and your empty aluminum cans.
