PET PALS & BIRDNOTES

PALACIOS PET PALS.........by Helen Callais (361) 972-0100 • Debbie Murray (361) 972-3005

Feb. 13th was a beautiful day and a great day for the Valentine Parade.

A little less than a year ago I had a very enthustastic young lady call me and ask if she and some of her friends could do the truck or trailer decorating for Palacios Pet Pals for the 2010 Valentine Day Parade. Hey, any time we can get someone that wants to volunteer to help us we jump at it.

In the back of my mind I really thought she would not call back and over the year she would change her mind. Boy, was I wrong about this young lady. Harleigh Gibson and her friends, Cassidy Wilson, Madeline Ferritez and Madison Hunter made the posters and put them on Harleighs’ dad’s truck who was kind enough to drive them in the parade.

Sometimes the volunteers and members of Pet Pals feel like we are fighting an endless fight for the welfare of the animals, but when we have the up and coming young adults to come forward and want to help, the future looks brighter and we know we will have a new group of caring volunteers to carry on the fight. Thanks girls for all your help and love.

The young, sweet dog pictured this week is Buddy. Our walk in the Parade was what we were trying to call arrention to. Buddy was a pound resuce with only a few hours before he would have been put to sleep. He has been neutered, has his shots and is ready to have a home and children of his own to play with.

Buddy walked in the Parade with volunteer and co-founder of Pet Pal , Helen Callais.

He is a fantastic dog and plays well with others. Please call 972-0100 if you are interested in adopting him or any others we have.

It’s getting that time of the year for babies to be born. Please, be part of the solution not the problem. Have your pets spayed or neutered to help get the pet population under control.
