Gadsden County Humane Society

Gadsden County Humane Society (GCHS) is an all volunteer, nonprofit animal welfare organization in Gadsden County (Panhandle area of Florida) that mainly rescues and fosters animals out of their own homes (they do not have a facility yet) and showcases them for adoption at PetSmart every other Sunday. GCHS also sponsors many local community events and fundraisers to raise money and a level of awareness within the community. GCHS is currently working towards acquiring their own facility, eliminating the terrible practice of dog fighting, and educating the public about spay/neuter programs.

Plaques and More

Without wanting to sound like a paid advertisement (it is not), we have purchased a number of memorial stone markers from Plaques and More located in Chino California. We were very pleased with the price and quality of their products as well as the speed with which they filled our orders. If you are looking for a memorial stone for your special pet, check them out.
