Title: Meet & Greet, Pets at Home, Ty Glas Cardiff - 21 & 22 December
Post by: DextersMum on December 08, 2013, 19:41:02 pm
We've been invited to fundraise at PAH over the weekend before Christmas which could raise lots of lovely funds for our dogs.   

Can any foster carers come along for a few hours either Saturday or Sunday?  Cute foster dogs especially welcome  :)

If we get enough people we'll try to split into shifts so that there aren't too many people there at any one time.

Saturday:
Penny - from 10am
Fran - From 12 ish
Lydia - PM - 1.15-3.15pm
Kirsty - PM

Sunday:
Julie DizzyDogs - AM
Alison - AM
Marina - PM
Kirsty - PM
Christine - PM

Hi everyone *waves* Newbie here!
I'm just waiting for a call now to have a home check as part of my application to be a foster carer, fingers crossed all is a-okay! I've got a woofer booked in for doggy daycare, but I can definitely spare a few hours to come and help out!

Sparky's off to the vets tomorrow (he's had a cough for what seems like forever) so hopefully will be all better for Sat
Title: Re: Meet & Greet, Pets at Home, Ty Glas Cardiff - 21 & 22 December
Post by: Lydia on December 17, 2013, 20:22:10 pm
update: Sparky does have a cough, but it's not KC (He may be suffering from an allergy as he seems to have had a cough since he was teeny, we find out more in two weeks).  So he can come, as long as noone thinks he'll put anyone off if he has the odd cough!

Poor Sparky! He is such a big lad now!

Have fun everyone!

We find it's best to bypass the car park and park on the road opposite Selco. It's not far to walk back to the shops. Just watch out for the yellow lines.

If anyone going tomorrow parks in car park check how long you can stay per visit - Amy just told me she got a parking ticket last week. Think you can stay all day but not sure if PAH have to do something as well to stop you getting fined

She got her notice sent in the post (they take pix of your reg as you're leaving) - the Oldies club have written to the company though and I think have got PAH to back them up so it can be fought if you get it

If anyone was at PAH for more than 3 hours at the weekend and didn't leave their registration numbers with the manager could you let me know and I'll pass on to the store to make sure we don't get tickets.

Thanks  :)
