Helping families
through sponsored
veterinary care!

Traci's Paws is dedicated to helping military & veteran individuals and families during the holidays when family budgets may be extra tight.
This year, we have decided to sponsor veterinary care for these families who may need help keeping their pets in their homes due to financial difficulty. With your donations and support, we can continue providing the resources and care necessary to help these families and their beloved pets. Join us in our efforts to impact the world, one animal at a time.

All Military Personnel, Veterans, and Dependents will need an ID/Paperwork to receive the FREE Christmas gifts and/or voucher for free veterinary care.
We will NOT distribute donations without the following ID's,
NO EXCEPTION:

• Military ID
• Dependent ID
• Veterans ID
• DD-214 and Driver's License
• NGB Form 22


 Start time: 11:00 am
Military Appreciation GIFTS - We will have a "Military Appreciation Gift Shop" so you can pick out your own gift. Each member of the active-duty or veteran family in attendance WITH ONE OF THE ID's LISTED ABOVE, may pick his/her/their own gift out. 1 gift per person.
Must have Military/Government ID, no exceptions!
