Pixels on Paper, Waggles Pet Supply & Dog Wash donate pet food, needed items to Wilkes Animal Shelter Partnership results in more than 560 pounds of pet food donated

Pixels on Paper Photography, with the help of its many loyal customers and Waggles Pet Supply & Dog Wash, donated more than 560 pounds of pet food and other pet supply items to the Wilkes Animal Shelter.

The items were collected December 8 and 9 when Pixels on Paper offered free, pet portrait sessions to clients who donated a minimum 15 pound bag of dry pet food to the shelter. During the two-day event, Pixels on Paper scheduled 20 pets (cats and dogs) in its studio, located at 1198 Curtis Bridge Rd., Wilkesboro. Clients from as far away as Charlotte, N.C., participated. In addition to pet food, participants also donated blankets, towels and bleach.

In partnership, Waggles Pet Supply & Dog Wash matched the food donations that were contributed and gave all contributing pet owners a voucher for a free pet toy.

The collected items were delivered by Misty & Ryan Case of Pixels On Paper and Kim Hatfield of Waggles Pet Supply & Dog Wash.

Below are photos of all that participated in Pixels On Paper’s Christmas pet portrait sessions. Without their donations this fundraiser would not have been a success. We’re grateful to have photographed so many adorable pets. Thank you with all our hearts!

It is with great sadness that poor Foster (shown above left with his owners) lost his battle to a long term illness on 1/14/13. We are grateful to have photographed him prior to his passing so that his owner’s will have lasting memories of the enjoyment he brought to their lives.

If you are interested in having photos made of or with your pet, our Wilkesboro NC portrait studio is pet-friendly or we photograph on location in their natural environment. You can contact us through the blog or see more of our photos at www.pixelsonpaper.biz.
