Meet Fernando, with his heart full of love and a spirit that refuses to be broken. Currently, Fernando is looking for his forever home at The Pittie Project PNW. Fernando's flower session was even more special thanks to Teri's generous donation of stunning floral decorations (www.windmilllnflowers.com). Her kindness has helped us capture Fernando's gentle and loving nature in a truly magical way.
Thank you The Pittie Project PNW for your incredible support and for helping us show the world just how beautiful dogs like Fernando truly are. If you want a loyal companion to add joy and love to your life, do not miss checking out some rescues.

Wildfire season has arrived with a fury. As an increasing number of fires break out across Washington, it’s important to familiarize yourself with how to keep your whole family, including your pets, safe from fire and smoke.

This article (https://bit.ly/WildfiresAndPets) from the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) breaks down ways to limit your pets' exposure to smoke and irritants and lists concerning respiratory signs to watch out for. Remember to always check current weather and air quality conditions - know before you go! Stay safe out there!

Thank you SO much Hilary Swank and The Dodo for choosing Miss Winnie to go on your Blind Date with. We can’t think of a more deserving girl and she truly had the best time.

Miss Winnie joined us from CA. As some of you know there was/is an incident where a rescue abandoned a few dozen dogs in boarding (this rescue is still registered and operational). We were grateful to be able to help the 2 senior pitties, Winnie and Pops, Pops has since been adopted.

Miss Winnie has been incredible since entering the program. She loves everyone she meets and has done well with slow introductions to calmer pups. Don’t let her age fool you she is still up for a good hike and would do best in an active home.

Winnie loves the water, car rides, a good walk around the lake, and all the kisses and cuddles you can offer.

Check out Winnie’s full bio and how you can make the rest of her life the very best of her life via our website.

El Refugio Costa Ballena

- 12 DAYS OF TRANSFORMATIONS - "WILSON" DAY 6

We all have a Hero within us. Thank you for being our Hero.

We want to share what our Heroes have done this year for the animals of Costa Ballena Costa Rica in our “12 Days of Transformations”

DAY 6 of Transformations. Meet WILSON

FROM HAIRLESS TO HANDSOME. Please meet Wilson. He was rescued from the streets of Cortes, Costa Rica in May, 2019, where he was a stray, alone, malnourished, underweight, and had severe mange and a tick-borne disease ehrlichia. His heart and soul seemed broken. After his much needed medical care at Centro Veterinario Costa Ballena in Uvita, he came to the El Refugio Costa Ballena shelter. He continued on his medications, received baths, socialization, and lots of love from the shelter volunteers. After just 3 months, he was at a healthy weight, all his hair had grown back, he had a lot of confidence, and he was ready to be adopted. With the help of a travel es**rt, he flew to Seattle Washington and the Pittie Project PNW helped him quickly find his forever home in Washington, USA. Now he is safe, healthy, happy, handsome, and most of all - LOVED!
