Helpful Honda Pet Adoption Events Coming Soon

April 4, 2014

My pal Bailey is a rescue pup.

It’s hard to believe that this beautiful, intelligent Border Collie/Pointer mix was taken to the pound. But her previous owner’s loss is our gain. I wouldn’t want any other dog.

All of my pets have been rescues and I love any event that helps these wonderful animals find homes. So I thought I’d share with you a couple of local adoption events coming up. Both are sponsered by SoCal Honda Dealers Helpful Honda Pet Adoption.

This Saturday, April 5, they will be partnering with Greendog Foundation to offer adoptions at Spring Pet Days from 9-3pm. It’s at the OC Fairgrounds and sure to be a great time. And every pet that’s adopted will go home with a new leash and collar!

On Saturday April 27 SoCal Honda will be partnering with What’s up Dog! L.A. and Much Love Animal Rescue to hold an adoption event at Griffith Park from 10-2. Go to the park, have a picnic, ride the carousel, and adopt a dog or cat!

Both events will be wonderful opportunities to bring a new pet into your life. Hopefully yours will be as wonderful as Bailey.

It’s no secret that I love a good restaurant. I sure write about them enough. But there is one kind of restaurant that I prize above all others – the landmark restaurant. You know the kind…in business forever, revered throughout the area, serving up dishes […]
