ATTENTION:
All prospective
adopters will have to meet certain criteria and be approved for
adoption of a pet. When you apply for adoption we will check
out your facilities for keeping a pet. If you live out in the
county, we will have the Sheriff's Dept. check your facility.
We are doing this in all cases in an effort to make sure all pets
are going to a good home. I am sure the public appreciates
this. Thanks, Lucille

SMITTY,
the Movie - Go to
SMTTYtheMovie.com and enter the Bigbee Humane Society for a
chance to WIN their contest! Also, help spread the
word about a movie whose message is that lives of both
humans and pets can be enriched with pet adoptions.
The dog SMITTY in the movie is a
homeless dog from a house foreclosure. SMITTY travels
across country and eventually ends up in a shelter in Iowa
where he is rescued by a young boy, Ben, and his Grandpa.
SMITTY makes a positive change in the life of the entire
family that adopts him, like so many rescued dogs could do
if they were only given the chance.
Please visit the SMITTY
website at
http://www.SmittyTheMovie.com to vote for Bigbee Humane
Society; the organization with the most votes could win
fabulous prizes!.
Then encourage all of your friends to vote too!
Help spread the
message: "Adopt, don't shop!" |
