HSBR Pet of the Week
Hello everyone. My name is a Daytona and I am a very pretty Dalmatian and Terrier combination. I have a white fur coat with black ears. I am spayed and house broken and can walk on a leash. I love to play and run. I am a little shy at first, but once I get to know you, I will snuggle right up! Please call 706 632 4357 to set up a time to meet me at the Humane Society of Blue Ridge Haven on Mineral Springs Road. Caregiver Wellness Support Group
If you are responsible for the care of a family member or loved one, we invite you to join us in a Caregiver Wellness Support Group from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. on September 11, 2017 at the 1st United Methodist Church, 146 Scenic Drive, Copperhill, TN. Our goal is to provide support, education, and encouragement for non-professionals who are involved in Caregiving. If the Copperhill school system is closed due to weather conditions that day, the meeting will be postponed until the following month. For more information, call: Dura Montgomery @ (706) 492-2164 or Dale Wagner @ (706) 492-4781.
