A Wonderful Day at the Park

This past Sunday, I volunteered again at my local park, helping find "fur-ever" homes for some of L.A.'s pound puppies and kitties. What a successful day! We placed 14 dogs and 6 cats. We were elated--that's about twice as many pets as a good day at the park.

Look at these terrific family portraits, all taken just moments after these lucky fur babies were adopted. All photography by Karl Loveys. Thank you, Karl, for all you do to promote animal adoptions.

I betcha this little girl will never forget the day her daddy adopted her a kitten.

 Gaa! They're wearing the same colors!

This is Pee Wee, above, one of the dogs I handled. If you even looked at him, he'd roll over for a belly rub and show you his adorable polka-dotted tummy.

This gentleman, above, came in specifically looking for a senior dog. His kindness made our hearts melt.

Look at those smiles! These two already kinda look like each other.

What a perfect day at the park! Please, spread the word; tell your friends and your family to consider adopting a shelter pet. The critters will be so grateful!
