One question to ask yourself...........

How can YOU help?

Setting up for a community tag day in Commerce

Sponsored by the Commerce Human Association. I helped set up the information bored so people can get information about the local humane association.

Doc Thompson and helpers were there giving shots and tagging pets for community memebers.

At a tag day, there are lots of helpers from area vet clinics and shelters.  Dr. Thompson of Commerce was at this tag day. He is our pet's vet and is very nice.

Here's two little guys who were looking for a home.

There are always lots of puupies who need a home.  You should always look at a shelter before going to a pet store.
