ClayPaws Prints in the News!

I picked up our local Coloradoan newspaper the other day and flipped over to the Life section.

Yes, I admit it. I'm not a news junkie. While I care deeply about contributing to society and my community in a positive way, I don't like reading about murders and cranky polititians. I prefer lighter fare. So, I usually postpone the hard news and turn first to the feature stories.

Imagine my surprise when the first thing I saw on page B3 was a beautiful ClayPaws® print and the greying face of a sweet, old dog named Ruby.

The accompanying story was from The Nashville Tennessean newspaper.  It had been picked up by our local paper and given a Fort Collins polish. In the article, Ruby's parents, along with their veterinarian, were interviewed about the care they had received through their local pet hospice service.  It was a very positive article about the difference end-of-life care and compassion can make in our lives when we need a little extra TLC.

I'm encouraged to see how pet hospice programs are growing in our country. I think they're the wave of the future, in terms of how, where, and when we will say good-bye to our beloved companion animals. And I'm proud that ClayPaws® prints are a small part of this very helpful trend.

Have you had experience with a pet hospice?  Leave a comment and let all of us know how it went for you.

While I have not had the pet hospice situation for the end-of-life events surrounding the passing of my Kitty-Boy, getting that clay paw print just was the most therapeutic thing to receive in the midst of my loss1 I can imagine your joy, Laurel, upon seeing this great article!
