Pups Get Special Attention In Calvert

by Laura Chesner | Central Texas Star

The Animal Control Holding Center (ACHC) of Calvert is a cornerstone of the community, dedicated to managing the stray animal population and finding loving homes for recovered pets. The center's staff and volunteers work tirelessly to ensure that every animal receives necessary care and attention before being adopted. A significant portion of the funding for this vital work comes from the generosity of community members through fundraising events and donations.
One such event is the monthly "Pamper Your Pooch Day" held at the Calvert Community Center. This event offers a unique opportunity for pet owners to pamper their furry companions while supporting a worthy cause. For a nominal fee of $15.00, experienced groomers provide professional nail trims and loving care to participating pups. All proceeds from the event directly benefit the ACHC, enabling them to provide essential food, blankets, shelter, and healthcare to the animals in their care. This monthly fundraiser is a win-win for everyone involved - affordable pet care for community members and vital support for animals in need.

The next Pamper Your Pooch Day will be held on June 16, from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm at the Calvert Community Center, located at 604 Railroad. Bring your beloved canine companion for a professional nail trim and some extra attention. In addition to the grooming services, Robin Commander will be hosting a Pawtree booth at the event. Pawtree is an online retailer offering a wide range of pet products, including food, supplements, toys, and other essentials. Pet owners can get premium pet food, toys and accessories for the cat or dog at Pawtree, an online pet emporium that puts people to work selling their products at shows and events. It's very similar to the Avon Lady, but for pets. Robin Commander, of Calvert, has set up a Pawtree online store that benefits the Calvert Animal Control Holding Center.

Robin has generously committed to donating all commissions from Pawtree sales during the event to the Animal Control Holding Center.
