The four of us- from left to right - Jessie, Travis, Katherine, and Nancy with all 5 of our dogs: Red (Greyhound), Xena (long-haired Chihuahua), Mona (Pit Bull), Vince (Chow/Border Collie), and Camo (Dachshund /Chihuahua). That's our good friend and Bliss volunteer, Isaac, as Santa!
Albert is a high school senior who found us on Volunteer Match (www.volunteermatch.org) and decided to give 5 hours of his time at adoptions tending to the doggies, making sure they did not knock over their pens, cleaning up pee, walking dogs, and chatting with potential adopters. He was so kind and gentle with the dogs, and we really enjoyed having him with us!
One of our volunteers, Mary, loving on Lady. Mary sat in the pen with Lady like this for a while to help show off Lady's personality and it worked! Lady was adopted by a loving family early in the day. Thanks, Mary!
Nancy cuddled up with Willie Rae and Oscar. These little ones are such lap dogs!
Our friend Joyce Keeton, owner of The Dog Spot, is graciously fostering Oscar for us. She has grown quite attached to this long-legged little guy. Oscar got a red mohawk in honor of the holidays, ha!
Potential adopters wander through the tent (that's Lexi the Dane mix front and center!)
We had a corner of the tent to set up and hung up our brand new banner! Thank you to Mike Dettman, owner of Sign-A-Rama in Snellville (and adopter of Captain, our very first Bliss rescue) for making and giving the banner to Bliss as a gift!
