Our last feature for adopt a shelter pet month is Tucker! Tucker was adopted from the SPCA of the Triad in NC. When he was adopted it was clear he had a special affinity towards children so when he and his owners moved to GA a few years later they joined CAREing Paws. Now his favorite place to visit is The Schenck School!

Time to feature another one of our amazing rescue pets this month! This time its Beau who was rescued from Hero Rescue when he was just a puppy. His owner Kelly likes to call him a “muttilicious” since he is delicious mixed breed. He has spread lots of love and cheer being a therapy dog!

Our next spotlight for adopt a shelter pet month is Lexi! Lexi was adopted from the Cherokee County Animal Shelter in March of 2019. In the summers of 2021 and 2022 Lexi had to have TPLO surgery on each hind leg, each summer. During both surgeries, the Dr found bb’s/pellets in her legs and removed them. Luckily, it didn’t affect her personality at all, and she’s the sweetest and most loving therapy dog!

October is Adopt a shelter pet month! Throughout the month we will be highlighting our CAREing Paws dogs that were rescued! Up first is Boo! His pregnant mama was rescued from a shelter and at 8 weeks old, the rescue group brought Boo to Pet Smart to look for a home. Christine said she was only there for dog food, but how could she resist those ice blue eyes?

Check out the second picture to see Boo and his Mama!

When we think of pet therapy we tend to think of fun happy events. But, pet therapy also has a way of lifting the spirits of those who have experienced a tragedy. All this week we have therapy teams visiting with people affected by the tragic events at Apalachee High School. We hope that in doing so we are able to assist in the healing process. If you would like to donate to help the staff and families please do so through the Barrow Community Crisis Fund (https://barrowcommunityfoundation.org/barrow-community-crisis-fund/)

We are excited to share that Richard King and Luna will be starting a new READing program at Sara Harp Minter Elementary School this school year! We are so thankful for the outpouring of support we have received from the administration. The school principal created this cozy reading nook, purchased this comfy bean bag chair, and an extra soft bed for Luna. The kids are going to love it!

🚨 New therapy team alert🚨 Kate Frost and Pippa the Siberian cat! Kate said - I’ve done pet therapy in the past with my dog and since having Pippa I recognized her demeanor is right for therapy. It’s also a wonderful way for me to bond with Pippa while helping others.

It’s national dog day! Is there anything cuter than Luna getting loved on at her very first therapy visit? We don’t think so!
