From Old Dog Haven: This little cutie was picked up as a stray in the Tacoma area, and her people never came to find her. After her spay and repair of a cosmetic eye issue, she's ready to find her new family.
The Seattle Humane Society’s 23rd annual Tuxes & Tails gala broke records last night, with 900 guests raising $1,232,614 for the animals in Seattle Humane Society’s care. Local media celebrities showed their support by walking the runway with Seattle Humane shelter pets available for adoption.
Kimberly Gauthier, author of the blog Keep the Tail Wagging (and advertiser on Seattle DogSpot), recently brought a foster puppy into her home. After spending several hours trying to tire out her puppy yesterday, she posted a video telling people how much work adopting a new puppy entails.
I like this video from the Companion Animal Protection Society, not because it's using a model as a spokesperson, but because it offers a straightforward, easy to understand explanation of why people shouldn't buy pet store puppies without using gory, disturbing pictures.

Last Sunday I dropped by the Pawsitive Alliance April Drools Adoption Event at Paws-Abilities in Fife. Over 50 dogs from 14 shelters found forever homes in about 3 hours. I enjoyed seeing a constant stream of happy dogs with their new families streaming out the door.
He enjoys the company of other dogs but prefers polite players. Wesley is best suited in a home with children 12yrs and older.
