Adoptable Dogs at Baypath Humane Society Treated to Spa Day

Five adoptable dogs awaiting forever homes at Baypath Humane Society of Hopkinton were treated to “makeovers” on Tuesday, August 8, to get them ready to meet and greet prospective adopters.

At-home pet services provider Canine Company sent one of its mobile pet spas and professional groomers to spend the day at the shelter giving the dogs the “spa treatment” including shampoo and conditioner, nail trim, ear cleaning and more to get them ready for their new homes.

“ This is a fantastic gift that Canine Company gave all of these rescue dogs!” said Cornelia Godfrey, Shelter Manager. “Their beautiful new clean and shiny coats will certainly help them win over the hearts of adopters.”

Among adoption candidates treated to makeovers at the spa day were:

• Buttercup, an 8-year-old Lhasa apso;
• Gus, a 1-year-old mixed breed;
• Sammy, a 2-yearold mix;
• Rocky, a 5- or 6-year old mix; and
• Lord Carrington, a 1-1/2-year-old mix, who will be going home with his new family this weekend.

This is the third spa day Canine Company is offered to area shelters to help with adoptions this summer. “As pet lovers ourselves, we are a passionate about helping shelters in their mission,” said Jennifer Hill, President and CEO of Canine Company. “We know that by grooming these dogs before they meet prospective adopters, we can help create more ‘love at first sight’ moments that lead to forever homes.”
