Holiday on wheels

Just in time for the holidays Callie got her wheels. This 18 YO has been unable to walk with her mom Tamara; that changed today when For Paws brought this loaner cart just in time for the holidays. For Paws friends donated almost the entire cost and Dr. Parkes and the lovely folks at K-9 Carts East http://www.k-9cart.com/
in MD. made a generous discount and worked all weekend to build and ship Callie's Cart to FL. Now Callie can walk with her mom again. K-9 Carts also donated a second refurbished cart at no charge so that another pet might have a chance to walk and run again. Dr. Kimberly Cox at Tampa Bay Veterinary Specialists http://www.tbvsecc.com/ who has been caring for Callie fitted the cart. For Paws makes carts available at no charge to pet families under a loaner program called "Bosco"s List"http://www.forpawshospice.org/hospice-wishlist.php making the gift of mobility to disabled pets. We wish you and your family all the best of the season and thank you for the gift you give your pet all year long, a home.
