Please help Green Paw find these adorable Chihuahua mixes a new home. They were found wandering on someone's lawn. They are extremely sweet and get along with other animals and children, too. It is obvious they came from a loving home. The white one is the mama and the brown, the baby. They are being fostered in North Hollywood, Ca. If you are interested, please email 
When we think of the summer months, we often think of fun times, vacation, picnics, barbecues, trips to the beach and parks. But, whether at home or taking your best friend along, please be aware of the potential hazards that the warmer temperatures can bring. 
During the July 4th holiday as well as all summer long, keep your animal companions safe by taking some simple precautions. Leave pets at home while you attend holiday festivities.They feel most safe in their own environment.

Be Kind to Animals Week runs from May 2-8 this year. I know what all you animal lovers like me are thinking out there -- why just one week? Well, you have to give the American Humane Association credit for creating this event because since 1915 they've been trying to make people aware of the importance of being kind to animals. And, maybe - just maybe, if we help them spread the word about how to do this, more people will do it, not just one week of the year, but everyday.
