WEST GOSHEN PET OF THE MONTH:
|
|
Blair is a feral dog that was brought to Pa by TLC rescue in August 2020. After a month she escaped her foster family and was on the run for a year and a half. She was trapped in February 2022. She survived blizzards and hurricanes and local wildlife. She was able to avoid multiple traps. She was ready to get rescued! I was blessed to be able to train with Chesco Pet Search and help to get Blair safe.

Today she has a happy loving home and 3 other dogs to play with and love. I am beyond ecstatic to call her my girl! She is living a great life! I am thankful for our community and WGPD for watching out for her and sightings that were reported to us. Without you all we wouldn’t have been able to secure her. Thank you!

Roonie Says....Keep Your Pets Safe this Thanksgiving!
Thanksgiving is a time for friends, family and holiday feasts—but also a time for possible distress for our animal companions. Pets won’t be so thankful if they munch on undercooked turkey or a pet-unfriendly floral arrangement, or if they stumble upon an unattended alcoholic drink.
Check out the following tips from the ASPCA for a fulfilling Thanksgiving that your pets can enjoy, too:
- Talkin’ Turkey: If you decide to feed your pet a small bite of turkey, make sure it’s boneless and well-cooked. Don't offer her raw or undercooked turkey, which may contain salmonella bacteria. Do not give your pet the left over carcass–the bones can be problematic for the digestive tract.
- No Bread Dough: Don't spoil your pet’s holiday by giving him access to raw yeast bread dough. When a dog or cat ingests raw bread dough, the yeast continues to convert the sugars in the dough to carbon dioxide gas and alcohol. This can result in bloated drunken pets, which could become a life-threatening emergency, requiring hospitalization.
