Why is this so exciting? Because now there is no need for Greenville puppy owners to wait! A progressive class for very young puppies is available in a safe, veterinarian-supervised environment.

Time is of the essence during a puppy’s sensitive and critical period of brain growth. Like every other part of a puppy’s body, the puppy’s brain is growing at a remarkably rapid rate. By 16 weeks, a dog’s brain has grown to most of its total volume and has already formed much of its “behavioral shape”. ** By starting good habits at a young age, new puppy owners have an opportunity to give their dogs the gift of a lifetime.

** Do you have an older puppy? A teenager? An adult dog? No worries – all dogs are open to learning new skills and eager to be rewarded for good behavior! Please contact TailLights using About Your Dog.

2009 Paws For A Cause Dog-walk/Fundraiser

Deborah Perzak DVM — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 20:00:04 +0000

The Paws For A Cause, which is an annual dog-walk/fundraiser for the local chapter of the American Cancer Society, took place this year on Saturday, September 26, at 9:00 am, in downtown Greenville.

Even though it was a rainy morning, there was still a huge turnout of people and dogs, all who were visibly excited and eager to get "on with the show". This crowd of two and four legged participants, included our very own Dr.Deborah Perzak, Dr.Lynn Bowden, the entire staff of Woodruff Road Animal Hospital, and all of their beloved pets.

The park was filled with lots of chatter and laughter from the adults, excited screams from the kids, and the dogs were barking, howling and "greeting" each other, in a way that only dogs do best.

All in all, the fundraiser was a huge success and a great time was had by all!

Here are the photos from the event....We hope you enjoy!
