this weekend at the shelter…urgent needs.

October 26, 2009 – 8:06 PM

This weekend I didn’t have a lot of dogs on my list to photograph – most of them had either been there long enough that they have already been photographed or someone else had already photographed them – but the shelter is so full. So full, in fact, that some of these dogs, if not adopted, could be euthanized. Please take a look and if you are at all considering a dog, PLEASE visit the Newnan Coweta Animal Shelter on Selt Road in Newnan BEFORE 4pm tomorrow, Tuesday, October 27. So many sweet, innocent dogs…and they all need a home and a family to love them.

New name, same blog. I will be sort of revamping everything in the next few months but I still plan on taking lots of pictures of dogs! I will be at the shelter tomorrow and at Alabama Pug Rescue and Adoption’s Pugs and Pumpkins in Birmingham on the 31st, so I am sure there will be some posts from those. If you are in the Birmingham area please come out and see us! There will be pugs and fun for everyone! It’ll be at Oak Mountain State Park in the Fishing Center from 12-4. It’s always a lot of fun!

pugs and pumpkins planning meeting

October 12, 2009 – 8:48 PM

I had to go to Birmingham this weekend (so no shelter pictures this weekend) for some other business that I will share later, but got to stay long enough to make it to the Alabama Pug Rescue and Adoption’s Pugs and Pumpkins planning meeting. This is an annual event held at Oak Mountain State Park near the Fishing Center. While this was just a planning meeting (the actual event will be on Saturday, October 31 from 1-4), there were enough pugs and a boxer…so I had plenty to occupy me and my camera. I loved all of these guys. They were just so sweet. It was a gorgeous day and I was lucky enough to spend it in a beautiful location with wonderful friends and sweet pugs (and a boxer). And speaking of Penny the boxer, she was such a sweetheart. She is a rescue as well, and even though she is in a very loving home, she’s still recovering. Kind of like post traumatic stress disorder, I guess. But she let me take her on a short walk, which was a big step for her, and she socialized more and more as the afternoon went on. All in all, a very good day.

saturday’s shelter dogs

October 4, 2009 – 7:54 PM

Wow…it’s once again been a long time. I almost forgot how to log in to post! I’ve had a lot of things going on personally, but have at least been able to go to the Shelter most Saturdays. This Saturday, there were so many sweet dogs there…so many that didn’t seem like they should be there. Like the 8-year-old Golden Retriever who should be relaxing on a couple of acres, or the dachshund “couple” who were in cages next to each other but couldn’t be put together because they had not been spayed and neutered, and who were so frightened when we went to get them out of the cages for their pictures. And then there was “Buddy”, the big 112-lb. guy that was brought in as we arrived. Sweet as he could be, he just didn’t seem to understand why he was there. And honestly, I don’t either. There are some amazing dogs at the Newnan-Coweta Animal Shelter this week. And all need great forever homes. If you are thinking about getting a dog, I hope you’ll check out your local shelter or rescue organizations before contacting a breeder. There are puppies, young dogs and older dogs just waiting for someone to love them. For more information on these guys, please visit the Newnan-Coweta Humane Society’s website.
