When we heard about Sher Polvinale and the fabulous
retirement home that she had created
for senior dogs (a fantastic pet sanctuary) with her late husband, we just had to share this story as it is her LOVE of life and
animals that make us feel so warm and fuzzy inside when we think about what she has done to provide some seniors who might else be put to rest before their time!
Well - behaved friendly dogs, cats and other household pets are sought
for Project PUP, Pets Uplifting People, a program that provides companion
animal visits to nursing
homes and
retirement centers.Seminole Dog Fanciers Association coordinates the Seminole County branch of the project and will hold its screening of pet temperament and behavior
for potential participants at 7 p.m. May 14.
And
for more than 100 years, American Humane has been first to serve those who serve our country: Building on our century - old legacy of supporting the U.S. military and our nation's military
animals, American Humane opened the Lois Pope LIFE Center
for Military Affairs, a major new resource to support our two - legged and four - legged warriors, helping bring
home and reunite retired military hero dogs with their hero handlers, providing lifesaving service dogs to veterans with Post - Traumatic Stress, and arranging free healthcare
for America's four - legged warriors once they finish their service so they can enjoy the happy, healthy
retirements they so richly deserve.
