SYRACUSE -- Bring your dog to the Syracuse Crunch hockey game this Sunday!

You heard right! It’s Paws for Pucks, a unique event taking place at this Sunday’s (April 3rd) Syracuse CRUNCH hockey game, 3:00pm at the War Memorial in Syracuse. The Crunch will be taking on the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins and looking for a big crowd, of humans and dogs, and a big win!

A portion of the monies raised off ticket sales for the game will go to my foundation, the Priscilla Mahar Animal Welfare Foundation.

The PMAWF makes donations to other CNY animal welfare and rescue organizations and has donated many thousands of dollars over its three years of existence.

The Syracuse CRUNCH Hockey Club also loves animals and loves the community and has been a huge supporter of the Priscilla Mahar Animal Welfare Foundation over the years. It will be very interesting to see how Paws for Pucks will turn out this Sunday.

Just a reminder, we’re less than five months away from our second annual Canine Carnival which takes place at the Wegman’s Good Dog Park in Liverpool on Saturday August 6th. My committee just had a meeting last night and this years Canine Carnival promises to be bigger and better with several new events planned, so be sure to mark your calendar! We’re hoping for sunshine and warmth again, like last year when 3000 people attended with their pets.

Where is the spring weather?   

Snow in central New York in April - we may not like it, but the fact is, it's normal. Climate averages tell us that Syracuse averages 3.8 inches of snow in the month of April.

Old Man Winter isn’t giving up yet. A complex storm heading into the upper Great Lakes, redeveloping along the mid Atlantic Coast, means many of us will have a little shoveling to do.
