At Patsy's we think it's important for you to get to know the pets that have enriched our lives. It may also help to know what we feed our pets, insite to their personalities, and what we've learned from our pets. At Patsy's we encourage our staff to bring their pets to work, so don't be surprised if you see one of the hanging out behind the counter or back by the office!

| NAME: ANGEL
MASTER: Debbie, Owner
BREED: Bichon-Poo
SEX: Male/neutered
FOOD: Solid Gold Adult dry, Natural home cooked, Michael's Soul Stew as back-up
SUPPLEMENTS: Nupro Powder, Angel Eyes (for tear duct tearing)
PERSONALITY: Happy, playful, ready for a good time. He's the 'puppy-man'!! Don't bother him until after 9am-likes to sleep in!
LIKES: HIS WARDROBE, car rides (he calls the front seat every time!) bull sticks, anything Samantha has, his sleepy-bunny-baby.
DISLIKES: Getting out of bed before 9am!, teeth brushing, ear cleaning, mom leaving without him.
THE STORY: Angel came to Debbie when he was just 11 weeks old. He had been bought as an Easter gift, and 10 days later, surrendered because 'he was just too much trouble and work'. On the very first night, poor Angel was coughing badly. He had been tied outside at 10 weeks old in March to a close line when he soiled his crate. He had pneumonia, bronchitis, kennel cough and a urinary infection. In oxygen for 5 days, his prognosis was not good. There was just no way of knowing if his little lungs could recover from so many problems. But he did, as you can see. Angel is an adorable, happy, welcoming dog and loves to seize any opportunity to make a new friend--human or animal! He has blessed the lives of Debbie, Samantha and the cats and fit right in with the whole crew.

NAME: SAMANTHA
MASTER: Debbie
BREED: Sheltie/Chow Mix
SEX: Female/Spayed
FOOD: Solid Gold Adult dry, Natural home cooked, Michael's Soul Stew as back-up
SUPPLEMENTS: Nupro Powder, Transfer Factor.
PERSONALITY: Tail wags constantly, very happy and loving.
LIKES: Car rides (even better if Angel stays home!), the lake, stuffed toys, anything peanut butter!
DISLIKES: THUNDER AND LIGHTENING STORMS!
THE STORY: Samantha was brought into Animal Emergency when a man found her very badly injured on South Mountain Reservation. Someone had dumped her there and it was unclear if her broken front leg and right back hip were injured before or after she was dumped there, but both injuries needed orthopedic surgery. The man that found her paid for both surgeries but could not keep. Debbie decided to rehab her after surgery until a suitable home could be found for her. Not knowing her history it's hard to say why Sam suffers some anxiety when it comes to other dogs and men, but with much training and love she has come to a place of tolerance and a gentler spirit. We can't say it was easy in the beginning, but in the end, Samanatha was all so-worth-it! She is a beautiful, committed companion to both Angel and Debbie.

Wilma came to our owner, Debbie, when she was about 6 months old along with her brother Wally. Wally was adopted and Wilma adopted Debbie!!! Wilma is a little shy with humans, but with the other housecats she is the boss! Wilma is a long hair calico with the funniest smudge of orange around the end of her nose which makes her appear to be somewhat 'cross-eyed'. While she's not the most human-friendly cat in the world, she does maintain 'law and order' in the household!

I guess what it takes to get more dogs into really good homes is for a CPA firm to pick up the Patsy's Pet Stop account! Below are the pets that rule at our accountants office and with their families at Lota & Bernard located in Midland Park NJ.

'A NEW ARRIVAL'
John and Laurie (the owners brother and sister-in-law) just welcomed 'Esther-Bunny' to their family. Esther was adopted from Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge. As with many rescue animals, it's tough to know exactly what kind of 'baggage' Esther was carrying, so some basic obedience classes with Vinnie Rambala sured up the relationship and made for an easier transition. Esther joins 'the cats' and has settled in nicely. Her favorite things include swimming in the lake, hanging out with 'mom and dad' at the power boat races, and snuggling up for naps!
CONGRATULATIONS! And thank you for choosing Adoption as the only Option!
