Brrr -- it's cold outside! Here are some helpful hints for keeping your pups and other animals safe and sound during the winter months:
1. Never let your dog off the leash on snow or ice, especially during a snowstorm, dogs can lose their scent and easily become lost. More dogs are lost during the winter
than during any other season, so make sure yours always wears ID tags.
2. Thoroughly wipe off your dog's legs and stomach when he comes in out of the sleet, snow or ice. He can ingest salt, antifreeze or other potentially dangerous chemicals
while licking his paws, and his paw pads may also bleed from snow or encrusted ice.
3. Never leave your dog or cat alone in a car during cold weather. A car can act as a refrigerator in the winter, holding in the cold and causing the animal to freeze to death.
4. Puppies do not tolerate the cold as well as adult dogs, and may be difficult to housebreak during the winter. If your puppy appears to be sensitive to the weather, you may
opt to paper-train him inside. If your dog is sensitive to the cold due to age, illness or breed type, take him outdoors only to relieve himself.
5. Make sure your companion animal has a warm place to sleep, off the floor and away from all drafts. A cozy dog or cat bed with a warm blanket or pillow is perfect.
Remember to keep yourself and your pets warm and safe this winter!!!
Who We Are
Friends of the Animals in Kansas is a privately run no kill rescue/shelter for canines abandoned, needing re-homed by their owners or pulled from high kill shelters. Some are cruelty cases. It is a sanctuary for those whose chances of adoption are minimal and a springboard to safe and loving homes for those that are.
Our dogs are vetted, socialized and house trained. They are kept in a kennel free home environment and receive one on one attention and affection. We take great pride in matching the right dog with the right person or family to ensure their mutual happiness and well being.
FOTA is dedicated to animal rescue, welfare and education. We are strong proponents of spay/neuter and a voice for those who have no voice in animal cruelty and neglect situations.
An Indian legend says: "When a human dies there is a bridge they must cross to enter into Heaven. At the head of the bridge waits every animal that human encountered during their lifetime. The animals, based on what they know of this person, decide which humans may cross the bridge...and which are turned away." (Unknown)
Adopting a friend
To adopt one of our pets, please contact us directly and set up an appointment to visit or to inquire about our animals. We will allow for one home visit to make sure the animal and humans get along and to see if there are any potential problems.
We pride ourselves in finding safe, loving homes for our animals. We conduct background checks on all potential adopters and require all potential adopters to fill out paperwork to formalize an adoption.
