Headin' Home Pet Rescue, Inc. and A New Start On Life had a Puppy Shower party for 52 puppy mill doggies rescued from Missouri/Oklahoma on Saturday in Holland, MI.  Headin' Home had this to say on Facebook: THANK YOU to all the volunteers and people who came out to support the Puppy Shower! It was a huge success. We received lots of applications on both puppies and older dogs. We will have a lot of work in the next few days processing all the applications. There are lots of wonderful gifts for the pups which they will be very excited to play with. The people of the greater Holland area are awesome and we love you! Thanks again.

The Missouri dogs have arrived at Headin' Home Pet Rescue.  Photos of the dogs are below:

With raffles, obstacle courses, vendors and more the Holland Petapalooza celebration with Mapleview Animal Hospital was a major success!  The event raised over $900 for the Holland K9 unit and over 25 pet adoptions!

Thank you so VERY MUCH to all the rescue groups, vendors, demonstration participants and attendees for once again supporting this wonderful event! We couldn't do it without all of you. It was another hugely successful day. We'll have the tally from the raffle up within a day or two. THANKS AGAIN!!!
