AWA Hits Adoption Jackpot at 2010 Ag Expo

            The annual Ag Expo agricultural exhibit at Poplar Bluff’s Black River Coliseum drew thousands of folks on Friday and Saturday, Jan. 22 and 23. And with the permission of the P.B. Police Department and Ag Expo officials, the Animal Welfare Alliance took 13 dogs and puppies to Expo from the city pound.

            Every single one of them got adopted! That was a thrill for the homeless critters and for the AWA volunteers who staffed the adoption table, loaned their dog pens, cleaned up the inevitable messes and hauled the animals back and forth from the shelter. Icing on the cake: AWA volunteers staffing the city shelter that Saturday adopted out one dog and one cat, even though we had left them with slim pickings.

            That brought our adoption total for the Friday/Saturday weekend to 15 animals! The tally included several grown dogs who had been hard to place and whose time was running out at the shelter. It was a gratifying weekend.

Jessica West and Dorothea Lasley groom “Red,” the shelter tenant of longest standing. She had been hoping for a home since Thanksgiving.

Puppies like this little Lab mix were a kid magnet, whether relaxing on Dorothea’s lap or being passed around from teen to teen.
