If you missed our previous newsletter, here it is.
We hope you enjoy reading the Small Paws
South Texas Newsletter, about Bichons rescued
under the direction of Team Leader, Sindy
Parson!
You all helped to
pay for their vet bills,
so we want you to
see the rest of the story!
Thank you so much
to all of the team

the country who make
this work possible.
Thank you!
Next, we have a bittersweet
farewell!
For many years, Patti

To all the SPR Ebay
customers and to
all
who have donated
items, I want to
say a big
“Thank-you!” After
many years of running
SPR Ebay, I am retiring
from that position.
I am not retiring
from SPR however
and will
continue to support
the great efforts
of
all involved in this
wonderful organization.
I sincerely hope
someone will step in and
take over SPR Ebay.
I spent about 12 hours
a week with Ebay.
That time involved taking
pictures and listing
the items on Ebay and
of course, there
is the time involved in
shipping to the buyers.
I am no Ebay expert
and whoever takes
over
may find a quicker
way to get things
done.
My suggestion is
to take good quality digital
pictures showing
different angles/views of
the item.
In the listing, make
your description
as
clear as possible
giving complete information
in regard to size,
color, etc. Also,
keep
in mind that you
need an area to store
the
items until they
sell.
I would be willing
to communicate via email
and try to answer
any questions that the
new person might
have in the beginning. Running
SPR Ebay was for
me a fulfilling experience
and I encourage someone
to give it try.>
So, do you think you might be interested
in being the next face for Small Paws Rescue,
on Ebay?
If so, please send
an email to me at
pup3@aol.com.
Patti, we thank you
so very much for
your
years of service!
Enjoy your much deserved
time off!
All My Love, Robin

Hi Robin,
A few days ago my
son, who is Daddy
to a
15 month old lovely
little
girl, told me that
he has a benign brain
tumor. His outlook
is good,
but we need help.
Please, please let
the
Mighty Prayer Worriers
pray
for him. His name
is Joe.
Thank you,
Bobbie Gentilquore,

>When these folks applied to adopt, and
we asked how their Bichon was killed by a
car, this was their response. We hear this
on an average of once a week.
(These are NOT Bichons
adopted from Small
Paws.)
PLEASE don't take
a chance with the
life
of your Bichon!
We do not adopt to
people who allow
their
dogs to run loose.

Paws Rescue
We had him for the last five years, He is
very obedient normally when we say "stay"
he will stop wherever he is, so some times
we are used to play with him in the yard
for he loves to run around the yard in circles,
during that time we did not put him on the
leash, this particular day he was not on
leash and did not yield to the command when
he saw some dog across the road. It took
off so suddenly the on coming driver did
not have time to stop the car. That is how
it happened.>

Dec 26, 1993~ Aug 30, 2006
When I first saw this beautiful picture of
Cheri Sisco's "Humphrey", I thought
it was truly the epitome of what we do, and
why we do it. I wanted to use this black
and white picture of Humphrey, taken only
days before his death due to congestive heart
failure, to let those who may be new to Small
Paws, know what we do and why we do it. Without
Small Paws, Humphrey would have never known
love. He would have died in a kill shelter,
sick and alone. Because of Small Paws, and
Cheri Sisco, he lived, he loved, and he smiled.
