Pawsitive Alliance will host one of the largest dog adoption events in Washington state. “A Canine Christmas Extravaganza!” anticipates more than 150 dogs and puppies to be adopted.

Five reasons why Santa says to adopt a dog at the Canine Christmas Extravaganza?

Season to give - It is the season to realize what is most important—and that is to love and be loved in return

Season for friends and family – Dog is man’s best friend. The love and bond between a dog and his family is priceless and long lasting.

Season for understanding – Not every dog is right for every family. That’s why Pawsitive Alliance’s Dog Concierge Service will be on site to help assist you to find the right dog for your family and life style; trainers will be available to answer any questions you have about how best to work with your new pooch.

Seahawk season - In honor of the loud and proud Seahawk fans, we are giving away a prize to the 12th lucky dog adopted!

Season for saving - Adoption fees will range between $100-$350. For that fee your new dog is already spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and temperament tested.
 

Early Bird tickets are $50 per person or
$440 for an 8 person table with additional goodies: r eserved priority seating, special take home bag, table signage  and wine at the table

Hula on over and opt to adopt!

Looking for fun, food, and furry friends? Look no further! This Adoption Event will have all that and more!

Join us and several animal rescue groups from all around Washington at Denny's Pet World where you will find dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, colors, and personalities!

All animals are spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccinations and looking to be your permanent “plus-one” in your life!

Adoption fees will vary.

Raffles and give a ways, refreshments, and good times will be had by all!

Get ready for a Holiday Hoedown themed cat and dog adoption event!
Pawsitive Alliance is thrilled to announce our next dog and cat adoption event will be held at the historic Pickering Farm in Issaquah, WA on Saturday, December 12th. The event will run from 10am - 2pm and we will have use of the entire Dairy Barn that is heated and has public restrooms. Pickering Farms will also have plenty of tables and chairs for us to utilize. If you think you can attend please review and sign the attached event requirements and send it back to me as soon as you can.
For more info, contact Pawsitive Alliance www.pawsitivealliance.org

We will be participating in this wonderful event this year. Here is how it works:                                                                                                                  

1. For 24 hours on May 3, you can review the profiles of over 200 local nonprofit organizations on this website

2. Donate to as many of them as you'd like

3. Help our community reach the goal of raising $1.5 Million for charity in one day!

The best part is that every dollar you donate will be proportionally matched by the event sponsors so that the nonprofits you donate to will actually get more money than you donate! You $100 donation could become $120 or more actually going to the nonprofit. Your donations can also help the nonprofits win extra donation prizes throughout the day.

Unleash your inner child…and your dog’s inner puppy!

Stroll, walk, or run around Camp Korey at Carnation Farm. You’ll find acres of grass, a beautiful lake and lots of other dogs and dog-lovers with Mt. Baker and Mt. Rainer, and the foothills of the Cascades as a backdrop. Then add fun dog-themed parks and our optional obstacles such as sand, hay, air foam, tunnels, and of course the Muddy Mutt Mud Pit for all levels of canine and human fitness. Enjoy the tailgate party with music, goodies, charities and adoptable dogs! Spend as much time as you like at any of the obstacles, or skip them entirely. It’s all up to you how you and your dog enjoy the day.

Obstacles are easy and enjoyable for the whole family on this crazy, fun day. This is a non-competitive, non-timed event set up with dog-friendly obstacles and play areas scattered around.

Whenever you and your dog are done playing, stop by our dog-washing station and get your muddy buddy cleaned up. The completely optional mud pit is the most popular obstacle, but we know you’d much rather bring home a sparkling clean dog instead of a four-footed mud monster! And just in case the fun takes over and your inner child really comes out to play, a change of clothes and some towels for yourself might not be a bad idea.

Please come out and join us at Tractor Supply in Port Orchard for Purina Days. Collar of Hope will be at the store Saturday June 11th from 11:00am till 3:00pm.

Tractor Supply stores will host Purina Days, an in-store event from June 8-19 that highlights pets and livestock and showcases the company’s partnership with families who raise animals. Stores will also offer discounts on Purina products for pets, equine, poultry and livestock.

As part of the event on Saturday, June 11, Tractor Supply stores nationwide will host a variety of activities, including live animal displays, advice from animal experts, and community groups with an interest in livestock and pet adoptions.

Both online and in-store, Tractor Supply offers a comprehensive selection of products for equine, livestock, pet and small animals, including items necessary for their health, care, growth and containment.

Join us for Dog Daze & Feline Fantasies on August 6th.

Come out and meet your new family member!
