Dog Star Rescue – Rescue on the Runway

Rescue on the Runway had a successful return after a 3-year Covid hiatus. Chicos, Daswani and Eastern Mountain Sports supplied the fabulous clothes. Volunteers and supporters of the rescue modeled the beautiful clothes. We will be announcing our 2024 date soon. Text provided by Dog Star Rescue and photos provided by Connecticut Dog

Companion Pet Rescue & Transport (CPR) will hold their annual reunion on Saturday, June 17, 2023 at their Adoption Center at Willow Creek Farm (522 N. Georges Hill Rd., Southbury). In addition to an adoption event from 10am - 2 pm, they will hold reunion activities from 12:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. for all CPR adopters and their dogs. There will be a bake sale, face painting, fun games (for people & dogs alike), a selfie booth, and more. At 2:30 p.m. we will have a Bomb Shelter Cafe with Maggie Paxson. Bomb Shelter Cafes are sing-a-long events inspired by the collective music of embattled communities in the lead-up to and during the Second World War. Maggie will distribute music and guests will sing along as she shares stories and scenes from earlier decades, designed to gently inspire. Writer, anthropologist, and performer, Maggie Paxson is the author of The Plateau, which has won several awards. This event is open to the public and all proceeds will benefit CPR. Please bring a lawn chair for the musical event. Text provided by CPR
