Drive-thru dog

Jordan Fifer, an online producer for roanoke.com, sent me this photo of a hungry hound at the Burger King on Franklin Road here in Roanoke. Fifer speculated the pooch was told to pull up and wait for his drive-thru order. I hate it when they ask me to do that.

 

 

 

 

Send your pet photos to pets@roanoke.com. And please have a safe and happy New Year!

  1. HaHa - this picture reminds me of Cali! On our way home Sunday, hubby and I stopped by Quizno's to grab something for dinner. While we were in line waiting for our order I looked out the window and saw Cali sitting up front, as if she was waiting to drive us home!!

  2. That picture is so cute! Such a patient hungry hound!!! Whenever I go through the drive-tru window, Holly almost jumps over me and out the window to get the bag of food.

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.
