Celebration of a Life

Bobaji, one of the world's most traveled motorcycle dogs!

All of the pets cared for at Paws, Whiskers and Wags have made a significant impact in someone's life, but Bobaji touched many lives as he tirelessly campaigned for community awareness in the humane treatment of animals and responsible pet ownership.  His most recent adventure before his life' end, Bobaji participated in the Georgia Puppy Caravan where over 200 animals were transported from Georgia to shelters and rescues in the Northeast where the likelihood of adoption is much higher. Throughout his life, he and his human companion, Frederick Edelblut aka Van Frederick, worked to educate pet owners about spay/neuter and other pro-animal issues.

Bobaji's life is celebrated with stories, pictures and video at www.bobaji.com

 

Pet Pro Highlight

James Galloway, Intown Healthy Hound Delivers

"Jimmy and Bridget are a wealth of information about pet food and health.  A groomer in the mountains told us that our puppy's hair was discolored because she had too much copper in her diet.  Jimmy looked at the ingredients and determined that there was not enough copper in the food to have any impact, but that the chicken could be responsible.  He suggested we switch to a fish-based food to solve the problem." - Ginny Peters

Jimmy and Bridget started a healthy pet food delivery service over 7 years ago.  Since then, they have added a store in Grant Park with pet products focused on health, safety and low environmental impact.  They now deliver those items along with pet food orders throughout Metro Atlanta.  For more info., visit www.IntownHealthyHound.com.
