Dave's Dogs

I know Dave still misses the old blue truck. Karen doesn't miss her Smart car because it's still around!

The truck won't start; hope we make it.

This is Smoky, Nessie, and Devistator. Smoky and Nessie were the first two dogs we sponsored and Devistator was the first cat we sponsored back in early April 2015 (paying for their adoption fees thanks to your generous early donations to our "Not Tips" jar to help hard to adopt shelter animals at the Prince William County Animal Services Bureau find new homes).

We think of those three animals often. It felt so good to help them find new homes (and we know they did find new homes). All have crossed the rainbow bridge by now, we assume (we know Devistator did a few years ago), but they were such loved members of the families who adopted them.

If you adopted one of "our" sponsored shelter animals, please post a picture in the comments and tell us a little bit about them. I (Karen) remember each and every one of them and have often grieved along with their families when they have moved beyond the surly bonds of earth.

So many great memories. Dave still has that scarf, Lori Statzer Bauckman-Moore.

Lori Statzer Bauckman-Moore brought me this awesome hand made scarf to help me heal from my sickness. Awesome awesome awesome

Heads up about this coming weekend . . .

Dave will be closed Saturday for a private event (a local PWC school's end of year celebration).

He'll be open 11am-4pm Sunday at Tractor Supply (14700 Silverdale Drive).

Hey, peeps. There's a lot going on right now with our schedule--some special end of school events, some upcoming construction at one of our regular locations, etc., so we're posting this again to make sure we're doing everything we can to make sure you know where we are, particularly Friday-Sunday.

A reminder that we have an online public calendar (through Google calendar). You can check it any time you want to see if we're open (and where). We have several events coming up. Some are open to all; private events are marked as private.

We will, of course, continue to post each day we are open on X, Facebook, and Instagram, as well as through our location alert system. Use your phone's camera to view this QR code to sign up for location texts. No spam--we only send you a text on the days we are open (or if we are closed on a weekend day for a private event).

For those with an iPhone, we have an app available in the Apple app store. Look for Dave's Dogs and our logo to find it. It has our upcoming locations as well as our rewards program. (Android option is still in development.)
