http://www.tehachapinews.com/home/Blog/caninecreek/25663 Thanks to all who came into Canine Creek and the Tehachapi Pet Lodge last week to purchase an ID tag for their pets during the discounted Tag-a-Thon event.&nbsp; A total of 81 tags were sold, so that's&nbsp;81 pets that will get home quickly if they are ever lost.&nbsp; And, from these tag sales, a $81 donation was also made to STOP, Save Tehachapi's Orphaned Pets. You might also like to know that the STOP adoption event this past Saturday was very successful, with EIGHT adorable dogs and puppies finding new forever homes.&nbsp; Congratulations to all the new pet parents!
