BRING YOUR POOCH to 4th and Donnelly, Mt. Dora.
Piglet’s Pantry and The Wine Den are supporting The Humane Society of Lake County during “MT. DORA AT NITE” the third Friday of each month. For the Doggies, there are “pupcakes” and cookies. For Doggie Moms and Dads, there are hors d’oeuvres and by-the-glass wine specials. During the hours from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m., 10% of all proceeds will be donated to The Humane Society. For the dates to take your pooch, please click the Events Calendar.
Carla and Christina, thank you for your tremendous support and generosity to the Humane Society. Thank you, also, to the patrons and animal lovers who helped them surpass their 2009 goal for the Humane Society.
Maggie is a special-needs dog. She is a one-year-old medium-sized, mixed breed. Maggie is a very sweet and loving dog. She is, however, extremely afraid of new people and new surroundings. We do not know what happened to Maggie in her past to cause her to be so fearful. What we do know, though, is that Maggie needs someone with the time and patience she will require to adjust to a new home and environment. Maggies does adjust, but just in baby steps. She will, no doubt, do best in a quiet, adult environment. If you give her the time and love she needs, she will return it tenfold. We invite you to come to the Shelter and spend time with Maggie. Maybe you will fall in love with her as much as the staff has!
On December 4, 2010, from 11:00 until 2:00, the Humane Society of Lake County will host a its annual Christmas Party for the Animals at the Shelter on McKinley Road (two miles north of Eustis on SR 19). Please bring your furry family member/s (leashed or in a pet carrier) and have his or her picture taken with Santa! The pictures will be digital and we will give them to you on a disk. Refreshments will be available, and door prizes will be given. The dogs and cats at the Shelter have a wish list which identifies their needs: medium and large nyla bones, large kongs, ropes with knots, non-scoopable kitty litter, canned or dry cat or dog food, treats, and toys. Thank you.
On March 9, 2009, the National Wildlife Federation recognized the Humane Society’s Memorial Garden as a Certified Wildlife Habitat. This sign was posted in the Garden because the Garden provides the four basic habitat elements needed for wildlife to thrive: food, water, cover, and places to raise young.
