RDRP participated in the first annual Jingle Paws Jubilee on Sunday, December 4th, at Ace Pet Resort.

The event offered pet owners a one-stop holiday shopping experience with more than 50 vendors on site, and gave local animal groups an opportunity to find forever homes for pets in their care.

Here are some pictures of the event.

Gabe, a four year-old red brindle male, is this week’s “Greyhound of the Week”.

Gabe is very popular at the Adoption Center and it is very easy to see why: he is cool, calm and brimming with personality!  Walking Gabe around the property is always a treat because he exudes happiness and seems to enjoy his surroundings.  He is good with adults, kids, but not cats!  (See attached photo of young volunteer, Megan Creevy, cuddling with Gabe after a walk).  Gabe is eager to please and is the type of dog that will melt your heart with his expressive eyes and overall sweet demeanor!
