Meri Kirihimete to our incredible Paws Restart community. It’s been one of the hardest years in rescue. A year of happiness, sadness, being pushed to our absolute limits physically, emotionally and financially. Strong friendships being tested, dogs and puppies been turned away. We were so disheartened we even talked about closing our doors. But through it all OUR team and YOU our supporters have rallied and backed us. Puppies and dogs have found families to call their own, community dogs have been desexed and cared for. . We will always need help, we will always need new sponsors and foster families. We know we can never save them all and that haunts us. We make promises to the ones that we can save to make their lives the best they can be and that counts. We are all volunteers with jobs and families and I want to send the biggest thanks I know how to our team, without you all we could not save the lives of so many. Sarah Maxwell White, Patricia Da Silva, Anna Chan Savage, Lynn Allen, Sue Sue, Anthony Koenen, Janet Koenen, Catherine Donaldson, Sarah Clarke Katja Jacobs, and our lovely Leanne Whittaker, vet extraordinaire! I appreciate you all so very very much and without you all we couldn’t do what we do.
To all our fosters, families that have adopted, people that have donated and sponsors that have supported us, from us to you, we thank you for all that you do, the support and belief you have in what we do is incredibly heartwarming and uplifting, we are forever grateful to all of you.
I hope you have some peace and joy with your loved ones over this time, much love and gratitude, Tania, Sarah and Patricia.
Artie is still looking for his own family who hopefully won’t dress him up!!
If you’re looking for Humphrey and Tobey they are down at the Kumeū markets waiting to meet you!!
I want to thank all our amazing families, volunteers and our team for making a truly fantastic event and Kumeu Rotary Christmas Parade for such a fun well organised parade. (We must have missed judging as we didn’t receive our award 😂)Everyone looked fantastic and I was so proud of our doggies. As a small rescue we have achieved so much and last night made me so proud and so humbled with all the support and love our families and the community show us. So from myself, Sarah Maxwell White, Patricia Da Silva and our team we thank you and wish you peace and joy over the crazy season. As much as Anthony and Janet from Mulch King don’t like to be publicly acknowledged, this whole float was built by them, decorated by Janet and they are our main sponsors so saying thank you never seems enough but thank you both for all you do. Thank you to Bailey, Aiden, Scarlett, Kelly, Kehan, Aysha and Fleur who still help their mums out with the rescue.
Don’t forget to get your mulch down to keep the weeds suppressed and the moisture locked in from Mulch King.
Much love and Christmas joy from The Grinch (Tania), Sarah, and Patricia ###
Quick toilet stop on our way to the parade!
