The Happy Wag

Send me those photos

I am shamelessly stealing an idea from fellow blogger Lindsey Nair and asking you to send me your favorite snapshot of your happy critters.

The Happy Wag is all about creating a sharing community for pet parents and the four-leggers who rule their lives. What better way to create that community than sharing pics or even video files?

So hit me with your best shot, along with a few details like name, age, breed etc. of the pet, name of the proud pet parents, your hometown and a little description of the action if needed. [Example: This is my 5-year-old kitty Thai, reminding me once again that the kitchen chair belongs to him.]

E-mail .jpg files or links to your YouTube videos to nona.nelson@roanoke.com.

And if you have any snapshots of delicious food, send them to Lindsey at the Fridge Magnet.

  1. Thank you for the wonderful article about Betsy Richards and the Berger Picard dogs. As a group we are working very hard to be responsible breeders, and appreciate the candid comments on the importance of maintaining a true breed vs. designer dogs. Enjoy the enclosed picture of my pup, Chaudron du Mauvais! [img]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3198/2293522904_ac455c8c93_s.jpg[/img]

Foster homes for the holidays

The Roanoke Valley SPCA is participating in the national “Foster A Lonely Pet For the Holidays” pet fostering program.

Over 13,000 pet rescue organizations nationwide are trying to empty the kennels for Christmas, encouraging families to open their home for the holidays to an adoptable pet waiting for a forever home.

Fostered pets can be picked up between December 18-23, and can be returned to the RVSPCA between December 30-January 2.

The RVSPCA will provide all needed supplies and support to the temporary families. You can view all of the pets online at www.rvspca.org, or visit the shelter to meet them.  The goal is to have each of these pets into a home by noon on December 23.

Ann Marie Sweeney, foster coordinator for the RVSPCA, will answer questions about the program for people interested in making this Christmas a happy holiday for a pet in need.  Contact Sweeney at 344-4840, ext. 208 or e-mail asweeney@rvspca.org.
