Mark your calendars ladies and gentlemen, the second issue of PAWSH will be unveiled next week! That’s right — on July 13th we will be revealing our summer pages to you, jam-packed with all sorts of colourful summer fun and games to keep this season fresh and frisky for you and your pets!  For now all we can show you is our lovely new cover, photographed by Kim Rodgers of Bark Pet Photography. But in only a few short days there will be a beautiful new issue ready at your fingertips! We cannot wait for July 13th! Happy Friday everyone!

Congratulations to Yeh-Bbi (her name means ‘pretty’ in Korean) for being this week’s Thursday Furball! An adorable four-year-old Shih-Tzu, this little girl was adopted through Happy Angels Dog Rescue in LA, California — an organization that partners with another rescue in South Korea to save dogs from canine farms. In her new loving home, Yeh-Bbi’s loving and playful personality started to shine! She loves children and her little butterfly stuffed toy. She also enjoys spending time at the beach — what California girl doesn’t?

Also, congratulations to Sadie the Shih-Tzu for being voted June 2011’s Pet of the Month. Be sure to email us your contact information Sadie so that we can get you your prize!

And one more congratulations this morning! Laura Souza was voted the winner of PAWSH’s Biggest Giveaway Ever! Same thing for you Laura, be sure to send us your contact information. So much to celebrate this morning!

Hopeful Hearts has a new little girl in need of a doting family and loving forever home. Meet Blinky, a nine-week-old lab mix who was born completely blind. A true darling through and through this adorable baby girl is fun, silly, smart and extremely playful. She has no idea that she is different from other pups. Although she will have to learn where things are in her new home (so she doesn’t bump into them), she is a fast learner with an excellent memory. Some other things to know about Blinky: she adores children, loves to snuggle and thrives in an environment where she is not pitied, but rather embraced for all of the wonderful things she can do. Also, Hopeful Hearts will continue to care for Blinky’s eyes and will cover spaying costs when the time is right. If you would like to welcome this pup into your home, or know somebody who would, please share this post and visit Hopeful Hearts’ website.

In case you didn’t know, you guys rock! Without you PAWSH would not be what it is today and we cannot say enough how much we appreciate your kind words and support as we continue to grow. So as a way to say thank you we will be bringing you and your ‘pawsh’ pet a stylish text inspired poster completely FREE each month! We hope you have as much fun displaying these posters as we have had creating them. Rory already has hers printed out and displayed in a simple 8 x 11 frame above her bed. Why not ‘pawsh’ up your pets’ corner too?  For your free poster simply follow the link and download. We hope you enjoy!
