PAWS OF HERTFORD COUNTY ANNOUNCES LIFESAVING PARTNERSHIP WITH BEST FRIENDS ANIMAL SOCIETY - August 22nd

PAWS Adoption Events:

In Memory of Carol Lang
On April 18th, we had to say goodbye to one of our long-time volunteers and dear friend, Carol Lang. As a charter member of PAWS, helping found the rescue in 2006, she had a heart of gold, always thinking of others first and a dedication for helping animals. In 2009, she created our Community Spay/Neuter Program and would continue to serve on our Board as the Director of the program until her passing. Through the program, and her attendance at all of our community events, she helped thousands of families and their animals. She was particularly fond of cats, but loved all animals. She also pet sat for others in the community for several years.

Carol will be remembered by all as gentle, kind, and loving, and someone who was always positive. She will be greatly missed by all of us at PAWS. We send our deepest condolences to all those that knew Carol, her family and friends.

If you would like to make a donation in memory of Carol, you can donate online here, or mail a check that is made out to PAWS of Hertford County to PO Box 153, Murfreesboro, NC 27855.

PAWS Barn Buddies have their own flyer.

She is very gentle and she has been a real trouper when we needed to provide medicine or vaccines. We think she heard she would get a treat if she was good and she certainly deserves one! Leslie is an outgoing girl and stands out in a crowd . (Hi! I'm Leslie and when my adopted...read more about Leslie

Our sweet Dixie came to us over 2 years ago. We often don't know much about our animals' past life but we wonder what type of life Dixie had. She's been quite shy since we've had her and always seems like she's waiting for something bad to happen. When people visit her room, she often makes herself hidden or simply shuts her eyes and tenses up. She has reluctantly accepted continued visits and head scratches from one of our volunteers. We're not sure but she may actually be somewhat enjoying it ...read more about Dixie
