  1. PAWThisWeekJuly 16,2024Page1of5DOG PROGRAM NEWS, ACCOMPLISHMENTS & THANKSLIAM’S DAYOUTwith new volunteer Karolyn Calixto Liam is a total sweetheart!!!I’ve attached some photos for you from our day so far.He loves our backyard, when he first came in all he did was sniff (and mark his territory lol) everywhere. Once he became comfortable he started running from one end to the other, ears flapping in the wind and having the time of his life.We came back inside since it started raining and he’s settling down for a quick nap.He’s a huge cuddle bug, when I call him he comes and seems to love staying by my side. When I get up he follows and just walks next to my leg the entire time.I think he’s enjoying his time with us and seems to just really love people, cuddles and attention.A completely sweet puppy!
