Hump Day

Wednesday is always busy around the adoption center. We're open from 5-8pm for adoptions, donations, etc... Lately we have had steady traffic every Wednesday and I have a feeling tonite will be extra busy b/c of all those cute pups we have!

Monday was a particularly busy afternoon this week. Thanks to many of you we had lots of Purina Puppy Chow donated! YEAH!!!! Last week we also had books and purses donated so the adoption center was beginning to look like puppy chow - book city. Monday was clean up day so everything went to storage and the puppy chow went into our homemade POD:-) For those of you that don't know this...we have a 1974 Dodge Ram that no longer runs. This is our homemade POD. You make do with what you have!


Saturday Event:



Spread the word about our yearly Yogathon! Stop by and see us and the pups!

Meet Emma's Family

This is Emma. She is a 1.5-2 year old Chocolate Lab mix with truly the sweetest personality! Her puppies were born approximately 3-17-09 in a shelter where she was scheduled to be euthanized. Fortunately for Emma, and her pups, ARFP was able to come to the rescue.

Foster Homes NEEDED

This is the sister to the two Beagle mix pups in the last post. Both of these puppies are in a temporary foster home. They both already sleep through the night, as do their siblings.




And this is the brother. We took in four puppies from this litter.



This morning I have already received an e-mail about a mama Beagle and two of the cutest puppies you have ever seen. They are in a local high-kill shelter. We would love to run up to Rockingham County and get these animals today but there is no room at the inn. We desperately need more foster homes. Please put the word out! Anyone interested in fostering can call Sharon Gray at 336-323-0850. You must live in the Greensboro, NC area.

Our Consensus is Rising

We haven't had too many animals coming to the adoption center because they are all too young....
Jill Z. has two 6 week kittens
Beth T. & Stacilyn B. have two infant kittens each, still nursing.
Jenny G. & Alicia A. have a total of 4 Beagle mix puppies, 6 weeks old. See two of them below.
Alicia V, Rene' H, & Kirstie D. are all getting 5-6 week old Lab mixpuppies on Monday, 2 each.
Randy P. is getting the mama dog to the Lab x puppies this weekend.

Watch for their pictures to show up soon at www.arfpnc.com and at www.arfp.petfinder.com.





I hope that some of you will join Suzanne and Yvonne at the Summerfield Department tomorrow from 11am-2pm.
