(C) 2023, from The Dog's Paw!

Woofs! Meows! Barks! Today we paw our paws full of thanks to the many men, women, and canines, who have diligently served in the United States Armed Forces and paid the ultimate sacrifice for freedoms.

Mom's side of our family has had humans serve in the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines - for that we are thankful too! 

Barks! Meows! Thank you for all you've done and for all that your families have sacrificed for the freedoms we have.

National Police Week, May 15-21, 2023

 

(C) 2023, from The Dog's Paw!

WOOFS! MEOWS! This week is National Police Week. A week designated under President John F. Kennedy to honor the men and women who risk their lives every day in the line of duty. The is about honor, gratitude, remembrance, servitude, and peer support.

Barkingly, it is a time for police officers to honor fallen colleagues, make sure their surviving families are supported, and remember their commitment to keeping communities safe. 

Paws, humans can celebrate the week by showing love and gratitude to the policemen in their communities. 

Since we aren't out in the community as often as our humans are, we are pawing a huge "THANK YOU!" to all the police officers in the universe for everything you do every single day!

Happy Mother's Day!

 

(C) 2023, from The Dog's Paw!


WOOFS! MEOWS! BARKS! We wish all the human, canine, and feline mothers a "HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! May your day be filled with blessings with your family and friends. 

We are very thankful for our moms! They gave us life and taught us how to be good dogs and cats so we would find "Forever Homes!" with our pawsome humans. Thank you Mom!

Barkingly, meowingly too, we pawsitively absolutely love and are very thankful for our human mom. She provides us with a home, feeds and gives us water, comforts us when we are scared of those loud thunders and fireworks, and she cuddles and loves on us all the time just because she loves us so much! What more can a human mom do for her furry children!?

Friday's Friend! Cat Adoption! The Humane Society of Loudoun County

Cat Adoption

Meows! I pawsitively enjoy writing about my fine feline friends who need adoption. I wish they were all adopted so this wasn't necessary. Meows, my friends from The Humane Society of Loudoun County brought two handsome cats, almost as handsome as I am, who are looking for their "Forever Home" with humans to love who will love them too! Meet Marvin and Hercules!

(C) 2023, from The Dog's Paw!
Meows, these two fellas would love to be adopted together. They have become bonded buddies in their foster home, spending most of their time together. They are often found pawlaying together, in each other's company, and giving each other head bonks!

Purrs, Marvin is the most outgoing! He pawsitively loves hanging out in a cat bed on a dresser in his fosters room begging for attention. When he isn't there, he's hanging out in his cat tree being a goofball or on his cardboard scratcher bed. He's a pawsitively loveable fella.

Meow, Hercules is a big ole tabby tomcat with the pawsitively sweetest pawsonality! He loves attention and seems to love being brushed and getting tummy rubs!

Marvin and Hercules are sweet fella but will be shy at first in their new "Forever Home!" Paws, they will need an adopter who will give them time to get comfortable, recognize they are safe and loved and let them learn to trust their new humans on their own terms. They are bonded buddies and want to find a home together! Meows!

Purrs, they will do best in a home without younger mini-humans. The noise and activity level might be too much for them.

Meows, they have not met their foster mom's dogs but with proper introduction, they would pawssibly do fine.

Marvin and Hercules are between 2-4 years old, neutered, microchipped, and up to date on their vaccinations.
