WHO’S WHO AT CAPS?
Our community is Who’s Who this week. Please take time to read the lists of businesses and individuals who support, donate and volunteer to make Bark in the Park an awesome event.
WHO’S NEW AT THE CAPS ZOO?
This week’s pet personality is a sweet boy, Dozer, is a black pit bull with a heart of gold. This guy is a real gentleman and knows not to jump on anyone. He is like a big marshmallow sweetie. Dozer is a favorite at doggie day care. He craves a few kind words and is looking for a buddy he can count on. Dozer was left at CAPS after his owner was transferred to another area. Come out and take Dozer for a walk, and he will stroll his way into your heart. We also have 12 frisky kitties and three female puppies. They are too cute for words!
CAPS’ policy, however, prohibits adopting out puppies or kittens under the age of six months to a home with children under five years of age. This is to protect both the children and the animal.

CAPS will be at Walmart tomorrow with Ki and our Kissin’ Booth. Ki has a regular fan club, and he loves his fans. Don’t disappoint Ki, so come on by and join Ki’s fan club. We have new designs for our shirts, and caps, so please stop by and check them out before or after greeting Ki.
