My Fire Hydrant

This is a big weekend for us–and by “us” I mean Eukanuba! This weekend many of our Eukanuba team are in Long Beach, California for the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship.

My buddy, Emily, is there covering the show for our new blog Eukanuba Unleashed. I get to stay home and “cover” some of Em’s work! Which is fine with me because I get to immerse myself in some of the Eukanuba-oriented stuff that Emily gets to do.

So first thing this morning, I took the time to catch up on videos that have been posted to the Eukanuba Channel on YouTube. There’s some really wonderful new ones, but I think my favorite is this one:

PetFinder.com has marked this Wednesday to draw attention to special needs pets who are waiting for adoption. The folks at PetFinder conducted a survey with shelters and rescue groups. These groups were asked which pets were hardest to place:

• 30% said senior/older pets
• 15% said pets with medical problems
• 13% said victims of breed prejudice
• 10% said shy pets
• 10% said those who need to be the only pet

So, in honor of Adopt-a-Less-Adoptable-Pet-Day, I’m going to highlight a different special needs Small Paws Rescue   Bichon from PetFinder every day this week. 

This cuddle-bug is house trained!

Today is for Last Chance. Chance is a senior male Bichon who needs a seeing eye human! He can shake hands and he is a champion cuddler, but he’s never been around children. He’s being fostered in Florida, is up-to-date on his shots, neutered, and house trained (a perk of adopting a senior–no need to house train!). Check him out!
