STRAY PAWS
9

Mar 26,2009 / CATEGORY: PERSONAL, SLIDESHOWS

I haven’t posted anything on a personal level in a while but I feel that I need to try to reach as many people as possible with this. If you follow me on Facebook/Twitter, you probably know that we are looking to find a home for a small doggie we found. She has no microchip so we don’t know her name.  We’ve named her “Chica” for the time being. Someone must have abandoned this dog as she is older and not in the best condition. How can people do something like that? For some people it is easier to do that than to try to help. Candace and I have a major soft spot for things like that. These little guys have no way of communicating their pain so I feel that people like us need to stand up and do the talking for them.

This poor doggie may not have much time to live, she has some problems with her back legs and she is partially blind.  The vet thinks she is 12-15 years old. She sleeps most of the time. We would love to find someone that can take care of her. We already have 2 doggies and we can’t have another one but we will also not take her to a place that will put her down because of her condition. If you know someone that would consider taking a special needs pup, please contact Candace at candace at maloman.com. I want to thank my vet Dr. Loeser for donating her time by doing all kinds of test, shots, dental and more. Also want to thank Natalie who initially found the dog before we took her.

On a different note, this whole experience made me think about doing something for my community. I want to give back by offering my photography to the local Humane Society or a Doggie Rescue Organization and take pro images of those “stray paws”. I think that it will help finding a home faster if they have amazing images, similar to match.com, except you will not be disappointed when you meet them.

I need your help for a possible new photo blog for dogs. Please suggest a cool, funny, catchy name.  So far we have, Puparazzi, Pet Parazzi, Paw Parazzi, Stray Bullets, Stray Paws, Slobber Place. Your suggestions are greatly appreciated. Happy Birthday mom!

If you like dogs you may want to attend this tomorrow 3/27. Rescues Rock the Runway event at the Cabana One located at the Mayfair Hotel. We will be there. Come join us.

Update (3/27): We found a nice home for Chica. We are so happy that we were able to do that and help a small dogie find a home. The efforts have paid of. Thank you to everyone that has stepped up and helped.

I think Paw-Parazzi! very appropriate if yo are taking pics of the pups! I agree with the whole idea that if better pics were taken of the animals then they might have a better change of finding a home, and saving them from being euthanized. I a time when so many people can not take care of their pets I and are sending really sweet and good family pets to the pound . Not to mention after looking at you photo's and the one of "chico" I have no doubt that if anyone can capture the personality and soul of these pups you can. I can see in the pic of "Chico" you can almost see the pain and years of puppy wisdom, if you like me believe in that sort of thing. :-) (March 27th, 2009 7:59 PM)
Monica C.:
I think this is such an amazing thing for you guys to do. I wish I could take the pup in but I really do hope and pray it finds a home soon. I love the name paw-parazzi. I think it is perfect! (March 26th, 2009 4:02 PM)
Elmis:
I think what you are doing is great. I could not agree with you more, cruelty to animals is horrible and I am also a dog lover and it breaks my heart to hear that someone would do that. I wish that I could take her in. (March 26th, 2009 3:28 PM)
Michelle:
Stephan... what a great - and noble - idea! I love hearing about ordinary people doing such great things! My vote goes to Paw Parazzi.... wish you much success in helping the stray dogs and cats! :-) (March 26th, 2009 1:31 PM)
Christina:
I think its great what you're doing by offering your photo skills to those animals that can really benefit from it. I do like the name Stray Paws but here is a few more you may want to add to your list: Lonely Paws, Drooling For U, Take Me Home, Needful Paws, Needful Pals, Posing Paws or Posing Pups. I look forward to checking out your new blog. (March 26th, 2009 1:21 PM)
Merari:
Great cause. I fully support you guys. I think paw-parazzi is your best bet ;-) (March 26th, 2009 1:21 PM)
Natalie P:
I am so glad that you guys were able to take in this pup... I couldn't have done it w/o you 2. My vote is paw_parazzi. (March 26th, 2009 1:01 PM)
Natalie P:
My vote is... paw-parazzi and stray paws. (March 26th, 2009 12:55 PM)
Rox:
I like Paw Parrazi cause it can be dogs or cats but if it will only be dogs then puparrazi (March 26th, 2009 12:54 PM)
