Closed Memorial Day
Monday, May 18, 2009
We will be closed to the public on Memorial Day (May 25th, 2009). We will, of course, still come in throughout the day and night to take care of those who are boarding with us (so, don't worry, your little friends will still receive the loving care and attention that they have come to expect from TPRS).
Memorial Day is a day of remembrance; a day of honor for those who have bravely fought for the freedoms that we enjoy today. Let us also not forget these soldiers' friends and companions, the ones who are there to lend a helping paw and a nice wet kiss on the face. Here are a few articles, some pictures, plus a video about the therapy dogs that spend their lives bringing comfort and hope to the heroic men and women of our military.
