York Adopt-A-Pet: P.L.A.Y. Pet Beds Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

Chill pads are being used to provide comfort for the adult/senior dogs.

We previously used blankets for the older adult dogs in the shelter and the Chill Pads provide much more comfort.

How many pets did this grant help?

So far, three dogs are sleeping on Chill Pads. Our younger dogs tend to chew and tear up their beds so we will use the wonderful Chill Pads for the dogs that will get the most benefit from them.

Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.

A Chill Pad from P.L.A.Y. was put in Cecil’s kennel the day we received them. He immediately went to check out his new bed. Once he had sniffed it enough he curled up on the bed and went to sleep. The Chill Pad provides much more comfort and warmth for Cecil than his prior bedding.
