summer, faster than others.

quick update: summer has flown by, and we've been lucky enough to see Forbes, Lula, and some other repeat visits from our fave animal friends in the past few months. we've included the "donate" button on this page for the kind souls who know we work on a sliding scale basis. feel free to chip in, help us with our own animal ventures. in the meantime, we will spread some love to our friends and family by directing you to their newer web-based ventures:


peacechakrayoga.com -providing universities with yoga-based curriculum.

iuseyoga.com -addiction with intention. a full line of tees, hoodies, goodies!

fingerrosaries.com -complimentary prayer rings, creating inner peace.

walshcompanies.info -appliances, advice, assistance, integrity.


we hope you visit our family and friends and report back with your canine (all animals welcome!) needs...can't wait to meet your furry, feathery, fantastic friends! yours truly-m, b & Jo-see you real soon! (book us: presspaws@gmail.com)

may showers.

the first big rains have come, and our adventures with canines and felines alike have increased! since we are a not-for-profit animal liberation collective, we have decided to add the "donate" button over there to the upper right of your screen. this will allow you to assist us even if we can't make it to your home!

we are currently booking for June and July. if you are headed up north or out west or overseas (!), beth and mark are here to give your furry friend, bird or fish the love it deserves. you can call us at home directly: 248.439.1136 or try dropping us an email (presspaws@gmail) to set aside those days...spaces fill fast...

a big "mahalo" to those of our clients who have chosen us and repeatedly come back! we at PRESS PAWS thrive on word of mouth and referrals. if you can't donate, or book us, tell a friend. we're here to help. may all beings be peaceful...

BELLA and LACY

phew! april has been a busy month. but spring is here and the sun feels good. we've concluded our spring "run" with BELLA, a young gal with a freckled tongue, and LACY, the older of the two, lighter in color, who recently lost her left eye to melanoma. not to worry, though, for this pair was ready the moment we stepped in the door! they have 7 acres to romp around, dip in the swamp, rest in the shade, soak up the sun...sky's the limit. they are both BIG fans of treats and adventures in the woods. this last week they explored Cass Benton and Hudson Mills, and the smiles are proof that they agree: to be outside is the BEST. not to be forgotten is SAMUEL, the patriarchal feline, who deftly showed how a computer bag doubles as a bed! big thanks to Gary & Hollis for letting us stay in your home.

LUNA and KAIA

in september of 2008 we took a caretaking position on the beautiful southeast shore of Moloka'i, for a month, and in the process met the goddess guards, Luna & Kaia. Kaia would follow me miles into the woods while Luna would stay on alert. we still are loving them, very much so...their hearts are big and their love is overwhelming! we are humbled to meet them, and see them again we shall....aloha nui loa

MOLLY and RILEY

again blessed to meet another family! molly was reunited with her brother, riley, years ago, as the universe would have it! these two live close enough to the lake to take a morning dip after breakfast. they are BIG fans of the KONGs and sleeping close to you. Mahalo...Steve, Nancy and babies! we had a great time and will see you soon...

OBERON and AVERY

we were lucky enough to hang with these two sweeties for an Easter weekend! oberon is a partially deaf 2yr old male boxer. avery is a rhodesian mama, a strong but sensitive 8yr old girl. we stayed active by taking the 7mile entrance to Rotary Park, a secret that only Liivonian Natives could find useful. Mahalo, crew, Andrea & Ranjit! see you soon...

profile: FORBES

this beautiful guy is a playful pup we've just met, and lives with two feline friends! CASEY and SCOTCHY (below)help make him extra sweet. he's always ready to play, and has a big back yard to run laps with the deck. see you in the summer, crew!
