Veda's Dog Day Afternoon: About Me

After a lifetime of loving all animals, in
2003, I started Veda’s Dog Day Afternoon.
With the help of my trusty canine co-worker
Bandito and my customized pet van, I’ve
provided excellent personalized care for
animals and their
owners since then.

Since 1998, I’ve volunteered at PAWS Wildlife
   helping them to rehabilitate injured and orphaned
animals brought in with the goal of releasing
  them back into the wild. I also have worked as a healthcare professional with developmentally disabled
adults for 16 years, learning sign language and other
nonverbal communication which I now use with
   my pack on a daily basis.

The special treatment begins with home
pickup, and a “taxi ride” together to the off-leash
   park of the day. After a stimulating pack
adventure, I drive the exhausted and contented “kids” home. For added safety all of my dogs wear specialized harnesses with a tag that read: “I’m at play! Veda’s Dog Day Afternoon” along with my cell phone #. Later it’s kitty or small critter visits and then I return home to Bandito and my boarding dogs. What makes me happy is making every life I can just a little bit better....

Who will be the next to join my day?
