Coordinator for Friends of the Shelter

Last Sunday morning our community once again showed what a caring and generous group they are.

The Posse Lodge Cowboy Breakfast raised funds for our local Friends of the Shelter, and we are so grateful for their generosity to allow FOS to fundraise with them. The workers from the Posse Lodge were helpful, cheerful and hard-working as always.

Our successful breakfast is due in no small part to many FOS volunteers. Gift Baskets were donated by 13-year old Madison Mas of Best Buddy Baskets and Zena Thomas for our silent auction.

The ever popular Doggy Kissing booth was organized by Peggy Sullivan. Carolyn Adams and Kersti Rock brought over our adoptable dogs–and one lucky dog found her forever home!

Sue Barns, trainer from Assistance Dogs of the West, was available for anyone to ask advice on dog issues. 

By far the biggest and loudest shout out must go to the Posse Lodge and all the hard-working cooks and workers, and especially to Annie who manages the logistics of the breakfast and keeps it running smoothly.

And thanks too, for the FOS volunteers who spend time with each and every animal, and also willingly volunteer for fundraising to help countless animals across northern New Mexico ─ a truly dedicated and caring group of people. But without participants who come out to the all-you-can eat breakfasts, we could not be successful.

Thank you Los Alamos!
