DISASTER PLANNING

By David Gersh

  Everyone can benefit from having a household evacuation plan in place. It’s the best way to protect your family and pets in case of disaster. What is best for you is typically what's best for your animals.

UPDATE: Brahman Cattle

By Amanda Volden

UPDATE: The four Brahman cattle (Antonia, Ferdinand, Bessi and Rollo) that were brought in to the HSVC by our Humane Officers last month are doing great! They have gained weight and seem to be enjoying the beautiful sunny Ojai weather. Their case is still pending so they are not yet available for adoption. We will let you know more details as they come in!

Thank You To Our Sponsors & Donors!

By Amanda Volden

Thank you to our sponsors and donors who are making this years first annual Dog Jog possible. We couldn't do it without you! Coming soon to Lake Casitas! The first annual Dog Jog will be a fun event for people who love animals and want to support our LOCAL Humane Society. The Dog Jog is a 5k fun run/walk for people (we would LOVE to have dogs participate but it presents too many logistical issues for our very first 5k, hopefully the next one!). The event will take place at Lake Casitas on March 14, 2015. There will be live music by Main Street Band, food trucks, and HSVC will have both information and education booths on site. (Sign up at www.Active.com by February 15th to get a FREE t-shirt).

PET OF THE WEEK : CHILI!

By David Gersh

Chili is a year and a half old Lhasa Apso mix who was surrendered to our Humane Officers in the field on January 8th. The previous owners were unable to provide her with the care she needed and signed her over. Humane Investigator Tracy took Chili directly to A canine Styling Salon in Oxnard who donated their services to get Chili looking and feeling great again!

HIGH –TECH PROTECTION CAN PREVENT HEARTBREAK

By David Gersh

Enter the pet microchip — a simple, elegant product of our high-tech age. No bigger than a grain of rice or more costly than a month’s supply of pet food, a pet microchip and enrollment in a pet recovery database brings lost pets home and provides peace of mind that your beloved companion will never wander unknown.
