With the days cooling off, it’s a GRREAT time to take your pup(s) for walks. Walking has been shown to improve a person’s mental state and helps dogs with keeping extra pounds off. They also enjoy “sniffing” the latest neighborhood gossip. With Halloween just around the corner, I thought I’d share a picture of Lucy from daycare last year!

Many of you have probably been wondering about the CDC ban and I wish I had better news to report. The coalition is still working to get an exemption for rescues; however, progress is quite slow. Hopefully, each of you received and completed the email from us that contained a link to send an email to your legislator.

In the meantime, we still have dogs being fostered along with several ready for adoption. Remember, the Goldens we rescue are often not in the best shape when we receive them; however, that does not mean they can’t become part of your family with a little work. Sometimes, all they need is a little love.

Enjoy the fall weather and some extra snuggles with your pup(s)! Best,Susan
