Welcome to The Paw and Feather Plan's Blog!

WELCOME TO THE PAW AND FEATHER PLAN'S BLOG!

    I am so grateful the seed was planted in my mind to start a blog for my business.
It only makes sense since: I love to write and am PASSIONATE about 'my other baby,' The Paw and Feather Plan LLC.

Why on earth do I refer to my business as 'my other baby?!' 
Because, like a human baby, a business must be nurtured daily in order to grow. 

And to nurture a business daily you must be passionate about your business... and that I am!

So, this blog is another tool in my toolbox, one I can use to nurture my business by getting the word out about the service we provide! 
I also envision it becoming a helpful resource for pet owners on an array of pet-related issues. 

I believe wholeheartedly the service we provide is vital for many pet owners and pets, around the country, and around the world. Therefore it's my God-given-duty to spread the word as far and wide as possible about what we do as: The Paw and Feather Plan!


Now, me and blogs... sometimes I get offtrack. 
I'll try my best to stay the course here.  
But please bear with me as, in a way, this is like the business's diary. ;) 


And I couldn't be happier to have you along for the ride.

-Why Rescue Makes Temp Move Back to So. Florida (08-2024)

 This blog title was so simple to type, much simpler than the process of bringing this planned move into fruition!      ~And maybe 50 people read the rescue's blogs, it's certainly not a big audience, but still: even if one person reads it, and it helps that person and/or their pet, then it's worth it.     Why The Move (broken down into 3 categories):     1.) For approximately 4 years I worked at Miami Dade Animal Services when I lived in Miami Beach the first time around (circa 2010), mostly via an ASPCA-grant-funded-position which was aimed at increasing our live release rate… which I did quite well, but boy it was a lot of work!      Because of my time working in animal welfare while in Miami, I have some great rescue contacts there.     And I’ve always wanted to get Paw and Feather Plan ‘rooted’ in South Florida… where the idea for this rescue was born.         I know several individuals in a...

Wills and Trusts and Pets, Oh My!

" Yes, I need to put my pet in my will. Or wait... is it supposed to be a trust ?" I'm quoting anyone there, no one in particular.  I could be quoting you!  The fact is: figuring out how to best include pets in our life  and  death plans can be overwhelming and uncomfortable.     But, it's the right thing to do: for your pet, your loved ones, and your own peace of mind.     And, with the right estate planning attorney, the process won't be as bad as you think... we  promise ! Fundamental Differences Between Wills and Trusts: -Standard wills go into effect after your death while trusts can go into effect as soon as they're created ( think, you create a trust with your attorney and on the way home get in a wreck and become comatose- that trust could start working for you immediately... after order from judge granted )     -Wills pass through probate court. Trusts do not    - Wills become publ...

Short Case Study: Jill, One Example of a Great Pack Leader

Jill and Todd are the PAFP adopters of  Gracie, a 1 year old Bichon Frise.  They also own a purebred 4 year old Rottweiler, George.   They adopted George from Metro Animal Services after he had been at the shelter for a month, and before that, he had been at another more rural shelter for some time as well.   When George first went home with Jill and Todd, he had some undesirable tendencies that needed to be addressed.  When I went to process the adoption for little Gracie, at Jill and Todd's home, Jill shared with me a short, great-pack-leader story.   Here it is, in Jill's (paraphrased) words:     It was probably just a few days after we adopted George, when         one day I gave him a pig ear.  He was laying on his dog bed               enjoying the treat, when I had to enter that vicinity for something.     -George growled at me, as if to say, 'don'...
