PAWS to Consider What's Important

Spring Village at Pocono and Woodbridge Place pride themselves on providing a home-like setting in their communities. One major factor in ensuring that residents feel at home is promoting a pet-friendly environment.

Both communities have pets, and they always welcome them. In addition to community pets, residents are encouraged to bring their personal pets when they move.

At Woodbridge Place, everyone’s favorite resident is Snowflake, aka “Snowy.” Snowy is a rescue dog that lives at the community and provides emotional support for the residents. While she lives with one resident, she is everyone’s favorite dog.

Throughout the day, Snowy roams the hallways looking for a friend—and maybe a treat. Even throughout the pandemic, Snowy has kept up daily rounds, visiting with residents in their rooms.

“Snowy is an integral part of our team. There is no question about that,” said Senior Executive Director of Woodbridge Place Deb Bodnar. “There is just something so grounding about a fur baby, who simply wants to visit with you and be petted. Our residents gain so much from Snowy.”
