Timeline: 

Evaluating Boika as a slumber-buddy.  He licked my face, I'm in...

Documented his pre-grooming treatment.

Decorated kennel (we were isolated from other dogs in our own 5-kennel room).

Lots of walks.

Caffeine rush to push through the afternoon.

Bathing.

More walks.

Pawtying and laundry until 2:30 am. 

Restless sleep for a couple hours.

Shocking awakening at 5:30 am by howling stray dog and if that didn't get me up, then the bright fluorescent lights at 6 am really gives you no choice but to get going.

Another walk, finished laundry, repaired a few dog beds before going home for a shower and a nap.

Next day, combing and walks continue.  In a few days playgroup resumes after a respite from neutering a week ago.

Truly awesome that over $58k raised, blew away the $25k goal.  

Thank you for your support!

On April 18-19 I along with other volunteers and staff will be spending a full 24 hours ā€œpawtyingā€ at the Whatcom Humane Society to raise funds for animals in need.

Throughout the day and night, I’ll be tending to dogs, tackling essential shelter chores, and maybe catching a little sleep in a kennel when providing TLC — all to show what it truly takes to care for the animals.

Rehabilitating dogs with physical, behavioral, and/or emotional needs is my passion, and a few of the dogs I’ve recently worked with are featured in the photo collage above with a couple sets of before and after photos.

Please consider making a donation today to support my efforts and help the Whatcom Humane Society continue caring for more than 5,000 animals each year. 

Thank you!
