Honoring and Remembering Our Families and First Responders for September 11!

 

(C) 2021, from The Dog's Paw!

WOOF! MEOW! BARK! Today, Samson, Abby, and me want to pawse in our usual writings to honor and remember those affected by the tragic events of September 11, 2001. We were not alive back in those days, but our humans were and have sad yet grateful to God for the events of the day. 

Meows, Dad says the day began normal enough. A typical September day, a bit of chill in the air and abundant sunshine. Paws, the day took a dark and frightening turn when terrorists struck the Twin Towers in New York City and the Pentagon in Arlington, VA. Woofs, fortunately, the passengers on one plane foiled the plans of the terrorists causing their plane to crash in a field in Pennsylvania. A staggering 2,750 humans were killed in New York City, 184 at the Pentagon, 40 in Pennsylvania, and more than 400 police officers and firefighters who had rushed to the scene to help the victims. 

Paws, today is the 20th Anniversary of that tragic day. Woofs and meows, while we cannot pawssibly visit every single human who lost a family member on that day, we can give our wishes of dog and cat love, paws full of lovin's and pawlenty of dog and cat kisses to help soothe you through this day. 

Friday's Friend! Dog Adoption, Cat Adoption Returns Friday, September 17!

 

WOOF!

BARK!

MEOWS!

Barkingly, an impawtant part of dog and cat ownership is having a human besides your own to take care of you when the need arises! We have a buddy who comes to take care of us when Mom and Dad travel and we can't go with them. In return, Dad does the same for our friend and his wife when they travel. 

Barkingly, we aren't allowed to use the internet to post our stories without the adult supervision of Dad or Mom. Paws, we decided to take the day off.

Samson, Abby and me will return to writing about our friends from local rescues needing "Forever Homes!" with humans to love who will love them too, next week.

MEOWS! MEOWS! Purrs! Happy Friday my fine feline friends and humans! These days seem to be passing by faster and faster every day! It seems like only yesterday when hints of Spring where in the air, now today the cooler temperatures of fall are wisping in the air- Dad loves the hot weather, Abby just loves to be outside with Dad and Noah, he likes to go in and out in the hot weather but the cooler weather is definitely more enjoyable for him. Meows.

This week, my friend "Cat Lady" from PetConnect Rescue brought by a beautiful young domestic shorthair around 1-1/2-years-old cat named Marcia who is looking for her "Forever Home!" with humans to love who will love her too!

If you are looking for a cat to cuddle with, Marcia makes a great lap cat.

Marcia is a sweetheart and gets along with everyone in her foster home including cats, dogs, and mini-humans! Purrs.

To learn about adopting a cat from PetConnect Rescue, pawlease visit their Adoption Guide.

Considering Adopting a Dog? Chihuahuas and Chihuahua Mixes!

Barks! If you are considering adopting a dog, while there pawlenty of things to think about and research, one in pawticular is the size of the dog. Some humans prefer large dogs, like mine, while others prefer smaller ones. There are quite a few great things about the smaller breeds which Adopt A Pet shares a bit about with the Chihuahuas.  

Looking for a Chihuahua Dog or Puppy? Why Not Adopt!

WOOFS! Happy Friday! What a pawnderful week we have had! Dad spent several hours outside doing yard work, Samson, Abby, and I got to sit inside with the pawsome air conditioning going while supervising his work. Paws, when he finished and came inside, we got him pawlenty of cold water and allowed him to pet us for a while. Whatever you have planned this weekend, pawlease consider adding a dog to your family and I have just the one to consider!

My friend "Lab Lady" from Lab Rescue was brought by a handsome fella named Jaja, a Black Labrador Retriever around 8-years-old. He is looking for his "Forever Home!" with humans to love who will love him too! He's looking for a single-family house with a fence (required) in a suburban or rural setting.

Jaja enjoys hanging out with his humans, he has no clue what the pawhrase "personal space" means! He is always right there with you making your day or that moment in life much better for you! Paws, he doesn't know what giving just a little lovin's mean, he goes all out to share his with you.

He is crate- and house-trained. Paws, he doesn't wait for you to put him to bed either. When he's ready, he will put himself to bed! Barks, just like I do!

Woofs, Jaja is blind in his left eye from an old injury but doesn't allow it to slow him down. Barks, he is a bit cautious of dogs approaching him on that side. Barkingly, after he knows they are a friend, all is good!

Jaja doesn't bark very much. When he does, he puts his whole body into it and lets it rip from his innards to a single woof!

Jaja is full of energy, but he isn't able to run due to his mild hip dysplasia. BARKS! He enjoys long walks and swimming instead.
Jaja is very affectionate and loveable! He can't wait to find his "Forever Home!" so he can share it with them.

Jaja is good with other dogs but unknown with cats. He is recommended for mini-humans ages 10 and older.
Jaja made and starred in a few videos to help himself get adopted. Pawlease view these- JaJa Loves to Play, and Jaja Playing Fetch!
