Featured Adoption Programs<br />

Anna and Pouncy<br />

Graduated: May 23, <strong>2019</strong><br />

The Good Dog<br />

Training Program<br />

was designed to help<br />

harder to adopt dogs<br />

find their forever<br />

homes. These dogs<br />

are wonderful dogs!<br />

They’re playful, sweet,<br />

and affectionate…<br />

so why does it take<br />

longer for them to<br />

get adopted? Dogs<br />

in the Good Dog<br />

Training Program are<br />

usually 50 pounds<br />

or over and have the<br />

appearance of a bully type breed – which some people<br />

may find intimidating.<br />

We’re here to change<br />

that perception!<br />

With our Good<br />

Dog Training<br />

Program, these<br />

dogs complete<br />

some of the<br />

most hands-on<br />

training out of all<br />

the dogs at Peggy<br />

Adams. Six to eight<br />

dogs are put through a<br />

rigorous but fun 6 week training course ending with a<br />

certification exam to show off their new-found skills.<br />

Adopt a Senior! Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League<br />

encourages the adoption of our senior pets through<br />

our Grey Whisker Club adoption program. Research<br />

shows that having a pet helps people lead healthier<br />

lives, and the benefits are many: companionship,<br />

lowered blood pressure, stress relief, sense of purpose<br />

and responsibility, and the list goes on. We think pets<br />

are so important to keeping our community healthy<br />

and happy, we’ll even pick up the tab on the adoption<br />

fee and ID tag, as well as yearly wellness exams,<br />

monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, and annual<br />

vaccinations. Senior pets make the best pets!<br />

Kids Corner<br />

Happy birthday to our young philanthropist, Bettina, who<br />

just turned 10 years old! In lieu of gifts, party goers were<br />

asked to give donations to our Pantry, which helps hundreds<br />

of Palm Beach County families feed their pets. Over the last<br />

three years, Bettina has collected donations for her birthday.<br />

Because of her generosity and kindness, many families will<br />

be able to care for their pets during times of need.<br />
