Some Littles

It's been a busy week. Lots of phone calls, lots of rescues, and few adoptions.

This is sweet 1.5 year old Gina. She was abandoned when her owners moved and left her behind with babies. Thank goodness for a compassionate neighbor that called us. Gina has the most beautiful brown eyes and the most pleasant disposition. She spent an afternoon with me at the adoption center and we had a little photo shoot. Whomever adopts Gina is going to get a gem! PS. Her puppies will debut soon! Too cute!



Mr. Pedro is a striking black and white Terrier mix with charm galore. He was born in 2007 and is under 15 lbs. He honestly likes everyone - never met a stranger - never will. Pedro was rescued from a high-kill shelter.



Quinn, Quinn, Quinn, named after the person that rescued him, Quinn was born around 1/12/09 and is just a social little tyke! He was the only pup found and needed some playmates. Quinn has become brother to two of Gina's pups so he is going to think he is a Terrier/Dachshund mix.



This beautiful redhead is Riley and she also came from a high-kill shelter. She is spayed and ready for a new home. Riley loves people and will be popular when company comes over. She is definitely our social butterfly!



Last but not least is Angus. Now this boy can play. He is happy as a clam when he is playing with his buddies. Angus was found wandering the streets. He didn't seem to know where he was or where to go. He had obviously been dumped out. He was not neutered so we're sure he had never been to the doctor. Now he is neutered and looking for that special home! Angus is one year of age.




All these "littles" can be seen at the Next Step Adoption Center
Saturdays from 11am-3, Sundays from 1-4pm, and Wednesdays from 5-8pm.

Abe & Daffney

These two babies were dumped out in Asheboro. They were found living with their siblings and their mom, using a trash can for shelter. Daffney is the blonde and she is very precocious. Abe is the black and mahogany pup and he is a playful little guy that loves his sister.

GTCC Community Volunteer day

Yesterday ARFP was invited to participate, along with about 40 other nonprofits, in a volunteer fair. The event was to encourage staff and students to get involved in their community. I met a lot of nice people but the best part was networking with other organizations, sharing ideas, etc...






ARFP is available for events such as this in the Greensboro, NC area.
Call 336-323-0850 for more information.
