Sunday

Spay-Neuter is the Answer

Please consider donating to the ARFP Spay/Neuter Fund via the charity badge to your right. Thousands of little ones in our community are in need of these services. People from OUR community call on ARFP every day for help with these services. They have found a homeless puppy or kitten and want to keep it but do not have the funds to provide spay/neuter services. This fund helps not only ARFP foster animals but hundreds of other strays in our community.

Adoption Night, Harris Teeter, and more....

Tonite is adoption night at the Next Step Adoption Center! We'll be there from 5-8pm hoping for someone to fall in love! You might get to meet Bree, Dexter, Elliott, Woody, and all their friends if you stop by.







BOGO to ARFP means BUY-ONE-GET-ONE-FREE, and guess what is on sale at HT? Purina Puppy Chow. Yep, Harris Teeter has Purina Puppy Chow on sale through Tuesday, November 11th. That's what all ARFP puppies get their start on so donations are always appreciated!

Busy Week

So, this is a very busy time for ARFP. Saturday we have our Rabies Clinic from 9am until 1. Tomorrow I will be posting more flyers and signs in the neighborhoods surrounding the clinic location. It's extremely important that we vaccinate as many animals as possible. It is estimated that between 80,000 and 100,000 pets in Guilford County are not vaccinated against rabies. We've had 15 or so reported rabies cases in Guilford County this year. Do you know what will happen if your unvaccinated dog or cat comes in contact with a rabid animal? Quarantine time on your dime is the best scenario. Death is the worst scenario. All because you didn't get your pet vaccinated for rabies. If you want a flyer to forward to everyone you know telling them about this FREE Rabies Clinic e-mail me at savapup2@aol.com. The Rabies Clinic is at Peeler Community Center located at 1300 Sykes Avenue in Greensboro Saturday from 9am-1pm.

Hardbacks, paperbacks, cookbooks, fiction, nonfiction, children's books, we'll take them all!
