Pet
of the Week
"Henrietta"
Henrietta needs a forever home!
Henrietta: 6 year old spayed Chihuahua mix dog
Good day all, my name's Henrietta. I'm a delicate lady of
around 6 years of age and weigh just 10 pounds. I'm a
Chihuahua mixed breed dog just bursting with love. I will
let you know I'm ready for all that attention by nudging
your hand with my head. And then if you really don't get
the hint, I am going to tap you! I am quiet and calm, but
if you want to play a bit I can get silly. When you and I
go out together I am going to stop along the way and make
friends, I am a bit of a socialite. So get ready, we are
going to be so popular! I'd be a great companion for a
moderately active senior and apartment living suits me
just fine. I am over 5 years old and qualify for the
Senior to Senior Program. If you are over 55 years old and
you adopt an animal over five years of age, the adoption
fee is waived and all you would pay for is a rabies tag. I
will benefit from structured training lessons which are
offered right here at Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League,
which offers ongoing classes for the both of us.
For information on adopting, please contact Peggy
Adams Rescue League at 561-686-3663.
If you want to help but can't adopt permanently, please
consider fostering, or make a donation. Contact Peggy
Adams Rescue League for more information |
Foreclosure Pets
People aren't the only ones affected by the current
foreclosure crisis. The number of pets at local shelters has
doubled. In some cases, pets are simply being abandoned,
sometimes even left indoors without food or water.
"The current U.S. financial crisis
has the potential to grow into a serious animal welfare
issue," warns Executive Vice President of ASPCA Programs,
Dr. Stephen Zawistowski. "As households across the country
are caught in the economic downturn, an estimated 500,000
to one million cats and dogs are at risk of becoming
homeless."

adopt a foreclosure pet, please contact one of the
