first annual pet parade!

Winter 2014

First Annual Pet Parade!In celebration of 40 life-saving years, P.A.W.S. of Tinley Park was proud tohost their First Annual Pet Parade on September 14, 2014. After a briefmeeting with Mayor Zabrocki and the Village of Tinley Park in 2013, webrainstormed ideas of how the Village could help us celebrate our 40thanniversary. Mayor Zabrocki suggested a Pet Parade. This small ideaturned into a huge event.

We were excited to have Anthony Ponce fromNBC5 as our Grand Marshall. Almost 40 different organizations walked in theparade down Oak Park Avenue ranging from Central Middle School’s MarchingBand, to local animal rescue groups and local businesses.

Immediately following the parade, we had a party in the Metra parking lot indowntown Tinley Park with over 40 vendors. We were able to offer spaces atthe party to all non-profit animal organizations at no cost. Our goal was toraise awareness of our shelter and animal adoption over pet shops. Many ofthe participating rescue groups were able to get animals adopted or potential new foster familiesfrom this event. We are also very thankful for many of the participating vendors and local businessesthat helped to support the after party.

The kids in attendance were engaged by the face painters, balloon animals, DJ and our very own duckpull from the fountain. Wooden Paddle Pizza was gracious enough to set up their traveling oven anddonate a portion of their sales to the shelter.

While it was only our first ever Pet Parade, the Village received such an amazingresponse that we are hopeful to make this an annual event to not only raiseawareness in our community but also to help to raise some much needed fundsfor our animals.

And last, but certainly not least, we would like to extend our sincere gratitudeto the many people that helped make the parade a huge success. The Village ofTinley Park provided support from almost every single department ranging fromevents, marketing, public works, police, fire, etc. We also could not have made ithappen without the hundred or so volunteers that showed up the day of theevent to set-up, clean-up, walk dogs, drive vans, pick up tables, sell t-shirts, trimnails, etc. Together we accomplished something truly amazing!

In celebrating 40 years of volunteerism, shelter President Vicki Deanhonored founders Pat Siemsen and Carol Goldsberry for their courage anddetermination to make a difference. Sue Arends, Jan Riley and Barb Dampierwere honored for their commitment to our mission for over 30 years!

We premiered our new shelter video, produced and donated by IntersportSports & Entertainment Marketing Company, Chicago. They succeeded in

Shoppingwas on everyone’s agenda with over 180 silent auction packages offering everything from luxurious hotel stays inGalena to one-of-a-kind sports memorabilia. Die-hard White Sox fans bid for fabulous tickets in the first row behindthe Sox dugout, while the White Sauvignon fans cleared out our first-ever ‘Wine Grab’ in under an hour! .

To everyone who attended or supported our 40th anniversary gala, andeveryone who helps bring our vision to life, thank you. Thank you forknowing that each and every animal matters.

7 Reasons Not toGive Kids Pets

forChristmas

By Michele Hollow of Parade Magazine

Your child has been asking for a pet for awhile now and would like one forChristmas. Be a good parent and give yourchild a video or book on cat or dog care,and plan to adopt a cat or dog after theholidays.

1. Pets require a lot of attention - especially when they are introducedto a new environment.

2.Puppies, kittens, dogs and cats need time to adjust, and those firstfew days in a new home are critical.

3. It’s hard to train a puppy when your home is filled with guests.

4. The gifts, gift wrap, foods, and other items can be hazardous to yournew pet’s health – especially if you are too busy to be watching him.

5.Christmas time can be too noisy for pets.

6. You will need to supervise new pets and children when they aretogether. This will prevent any harm coming to the child or the pet.

7. If your child didn’t ask for a pet or has not done any research, hemay not be ready for the responsibility. You need to sit down withyour child and talk to him about what’s involved in caring for a pet.

Zoonotic Diseases Nancy Mulvihill, Ph.D

With all the media attention focusing on Ebola, people are starting to become more con-cerned about their pets and catching diseases from them or whether or not they cangive their cold or flu to their pet. There are some diseases (zoonotic diseases) that hu-mans can get passed to them from animals by several means: inhalation, contact withbroken skin, ingestion, or contact with mucous membranes and eyes.

Nearly everything you can catch from your dog or cat is preventable and treatable. Prop-erly washing your hands after handling animals is the best prevention along with keepingyour pets healthy and vaccinated. Here are some of the diseases your pet may be sharingwith you:

The most contagious disease is Ringworm, (which is not a worm or parasite); it is a fungal infection of the skin, which cansurvive for months on items like clothes and bedding before transferring to your pet. Cats and horses are more susceptibleto ringworm infestation. It is preventable by washing hands, wearing gloves if your pet is infected, and making sure petbedding and blankets are washed regularly. Symptoms on your pets would include skin lesions, patches of hair loss witha red mark in the center. Symptoms on people also include red, circular patches on the skin. It is easily treated with pre-scription medication including pills and ointments.

Another disease that your pet can share with you is Giardia. Usually found in dogs, this is a waterborne organism thatlives in ponds, streams even puddles in your backyard. This can cause bloody diarrhea in the animals and if spread to hu-mans we can have similar symptoms including diarrhea and gastrointestinal cramping. People can get it by coming in con-tact with infected animals especially puppies and kittens, that is why it is important to wash your hands after handlingyour pets, especially before eating or using the restroom. Both humans and pets can be treated with prescription med-ication. The best prevention for this is to make sure you have clean drinking water available to your pet and to clean upafter your dog, coming in contact with your pets’ feces, or another animal coming in contact with it can help to spreadthe disease.

Rabies is the most well-known zoonotic disease, but in the past century it has become more rare, especially with mostcities requiring annual rabies vaccinations. It was once considered a fatal disease and was easily transmitted by the animal’ssaliva either through a bite to the skin or saliva getting inside an open wound on a person. The disease is still very presentin wild animals including bats, raccoons and skunks. Some symptoms you may see in your pet include behavioral changes,loss of appetite, foaming at the mouth and staggering when walking. Human symptoms include general weakness,headache, confusion, flu-like symptoms and possible hallucinations. Treatment is needed immediately, left untreated itis almost always fatal. If you think your pet was exposed contact your veterinarian immediately.

I Have Done Something

I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter...the cast-offs of human society.

I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness,and betrayal. And I was angry.

"God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you dosomething?"

God was silent for a moment, and then He spoke softly,"I have done something," he replied. "I created you."

You Go Gina………

Fifth grader, Gina Zientara, donated the proceedsfrom all the odd jobs she has done. One of themany jobs she worked was with her mom at theTinley Park Farmer’s Market. This isn’t the firsttime that Gina helped the shelter. Last summershe made and sold rainbow loom bracelets.

Fulton’s Student Council collected food, papertowels, collars and toys to help PAWS’ homelessanimals have a more pleasant stay.

Ashton Brooke, Maddie Brooke and HanneForster had a Kool Aid stand this summer andraised $115.00 in just two days. AND, THEYDIDN’T EVEN SELL ANY Kool Aid. What’s funnyabout this fundraiser is that their neighbors didn’tbuy anything to drink but did give generousmonetary donations.

Students at Fulton School located in Tinley Parkhave “Big Hearts” for the homeless pets at PAWS.

Fulton Brownie Troop 60282 made blankets andrope pull toys, to help the dogs pass their timewhile waiting for their forever home. The girlsalso collected items from the shelter’s Wish List.

KidsKorner“These boys and girls earn an A+ in compassion”

Fifth grader, Faith Reilly, also from Fulton School wrote a letter to theSouthtown newsletter when she was in third grade. The letter wascalled “Think Adoption” below is her letter:

Dear Editor,

My name is Faith Reilly and I am 9 years old and live in Tinley Park.I am trying to stop puppy mills.

Puppy mills are places where people breed mother dogs and theyhave as many litters as fast as they can, then they sell the puppiesto pet stores. But the puppies are actually very sick when theycome from the puppy mills and some puppies die. Mother dogshave to spend their entire lives in a cage. So you see puppy millsare very bad. So I’m trying to get the word out to everyonebecause every year people have to pay a lot of vet bills, then theyhave to get rid of their dog so lots of dogs don’t have homes.

I think everyone should buy their dogs at shelters.

Faith Reilly (Future Furry Flyer editor!)

Birthdays, lemonade stands,bake and garage salesMany boys and girls asked their family and friends to buy items forthe shelter instead of receiving birthday gifts. Other children hadlemonade stands, NJHS project, garage sales, bake sales, dropped offflyers to neighbors requesting and collecting donations for PAWS andthere were two children who even put on a play.

Four WaysRetractable

Leashes Can BeDangerous

Retractable leads are long leashes that extend to allowyour dog to roam freely. According to the ASPCA and manyveterinarians it might be time to ditch it. Here’s why:

1. The leash can get caught on you, your dog, a cyclist orjogger and cause tripping, rope burn, cuts and evenstrangulation.

2. When you use a retractable leash, you’re opening yourdog up to all sorts of danger, including those posed byless-friendly dogs, bikes and cars. You may not be ableto hit the brakes in time.

3. Retractable leashes allow your dog to approach otherdogs uninvited. Other pet parents may not want theirdog to greet your dog for a variety of reasons, includingyour own dog’s health and safety.

4. Perhaps worst of all, should you drop the leash in a busyarea, its sudden retraction and the noise the handlemakes when dragging on pavement can terrify even themost even- heeled dogs. That means your dog is muchmore likely to bolt.

These are just four reasons why not to use retractableleashes and we’re sure there are many more. The ASPCAis recommending the good old six-foot leash when you’reon busy streets.

We would like to thank...

for selecting P.A.W.S. as the recipientof the profits from their annual birthday bash.They generously donated $4,000 to helpwith the care of our homeless animals.
