Did Somebody Order a White Christmas?


Merry Christmas everyone, and yes, it's officially a white one! Blizzard conditions here in OKC have the National Guard hopping, but it's warm and cozy here at Best Friends. The dogs, cats, and even Thomas the guinea pig are enjoying toasty temps and full bellies this morning! Some pets are opening Christmas presents, and many doggies are romping in the snow with their playgroups. Breanna, Katie, and several staff members bedded down with the kitties last night after getting snowed in, and can now personally attest to the snuggliness of both the Snoozy Softies and the orthopedic beds offered here at Best Friends! Hopefully, the snowplows will be able to reach us today, so we can spend some of Christmas Day with our families.. keep your fingers crossed for us, please!

Our bi-annual 50% off sale starts tomorrow, and runs until January 6th, so come on out as soon as the roads clear and pick up one of those wonderful Snoozy Softies, or some after Christmas toys for your pets. Everything will be on sale, except for dogfood, and Frontline.

The Angel Tree is still up in the lobby, and we will continue accepting donations for the dogs from Pathfinders and the Edmond Animal Shelter until January 6th. Please call 405-751-1944 to contribute by credit card, or come on in to 13517 Railway drive to pick out some great gifts (at half price!) to leave under the tree!

Once again, Merry Christmas to all!

Santa Pictures were a success on November 28th! Sixteen beautiful pictures were sent home this year, with all proceeds going to Pathfinders Search and Rescue and Edmond Animal Welfare. A really, REALLY big thank you goes out to Rick Rowan from Advanced Images Photography who took our beautiful pictures this year, and Fred Crawford, who volunteered his time (on a Saturday during football season! The Bedlam game, even!) to play Santa once again. We couldn't do it without you!!

Well, it's official - the turkey has been eaten, Santa has arrived, and the B.C. Clark Anniversary jingle is on the air - the Holiday Season is upon us! During the upcoming weeks, besides baking those fruitcakes and shopping for the perfect presents, many of us will decorate our homes with festive plants, full of colour and cheer. As pet owners, however, we need to be aware that the effects of some of those plants on our furry friends is not so jolly, should Fluffy decide to ingest them! Please take a moment to look over this article on toxic holiday plants, and make sure that everyone in your home has a very happy holiday season!
