This was a fun-filled event where volunteers and their pets mingled with each other and also met with, world famous 'Pet Psychic' to the stars, Joan Ranquet (www.joanranquet.com) who took time out from her busy schedule to meet with Share-A-Pet.

Please stay tuned for our next fundraising 'Valentine's Day' Event to be held at one of our local facilities.

HOLIDAY PARTY, SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

On December 14, 2006, Share-A-Pet threw a Holiday Party for the residents of the Sunrise Senior Living Center at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco.

Dog visits are always a popular event at Sunrise, and residents turned out to visit their canine friends and attend a graduation ceremony for some of our newly-certified pet assisted therapy teams.

The Sunrise kitchen provided wonderful hors-d’oveurs (cheese and crackers, baked goods, beverages, and veggies with dip) and a local restaurant, Rose Pistola, baked decadent mini fudge cakes and homemade dog biscuits for our heroic canine volunteers.
