PUPS’ puppies
Clarion PUPS in Strattanville has some puppies available for adoption.
“Remember just telling us a favorite won’t guarantee you get that puppy. The only guarantee is to make a deposit,” the rescue posted on its Facebook page.
PUPS can be reached by calling (814) 764-5580, online at www.clarionpups.com or by messaging its Facebook Page.
Fresh faces

Dino (pictured) is black with white on his chest. Trooper is black with tan feet and Furby is black with brown markings.
“These bright youngsters will need basic obedience training and potty training,” the shelter said in a Petfinder listing.
The humane society is open from noon to 5 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays. It is located at 286 S. Main St., Seneca. More information on the Venango County Humane Society is available by calling (814) 677-4040.

Tiny trauma
Fawn being treated at Skye’s Spirit Wildlife Rehabilitation Center.
Skye’s Spirit Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in Harrisville is caring for yet another fawn.
“And another itty bitty fawn from Pittsburgh. The rescuer watched for two days hoping for a mom but this baby just kept deteriorating,” the center posted on Facebook. “He’s really dehydrated and emaciated. I’m slowly introducing formula, very diluted at first after I worked at getting him hydrated. Again, I must ask for help with funds to help raise these babies.”
At $500 each to raise, the center can only take so many before it is unable to accept more.
People may donation on the center’s website www.skyes-spirit.com or mail to SSWRC, 889 Farren Surrena Road. Harrisville, PA. 16038.

Tamarack Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center in Saegertown will be at the Erie vendor and craft show which is held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, June 10, at Lake Shore Fire Department 5310 W. Lake Road, Erie.

All proceeds from the show benefit Tamarack Wildlife Center.
