ome people spend their lives wondering when “someone” is going to do some- thing to help the homeless pets of Kern County. Then there are people like Tere- sa Walker, who established No Paws Left Behind Rescue and Transport, a nonprofit organization that pulls pets out of local shelters and transports them to northern California to waiting rescues. Asked why she has chosen this action to help save pets, Walker said, “I volunteered at the SPCA and worked with two local rescues work- ing to save Kern County shelter dogs. I wasn’t happy with the number of animals I was able to foster, spay/neuter, provide medical care and find loving homes for. The need is so great, and I felt I was not making a difference. I decided transporting Kern animals to established res- cues would allow me to save a larger number of them.” Thus, No Paws Left Behind was formed. The organization transports pets from Kern County Animal Control as well as shelters in Shafter, Wasco and Delano to established rescues in northern California such as Big Dog Rescue, Wing and a Prayer Rescue, Second Chance Cocker Rescue, Noah’s B’Ark Rescue and the Milo Foundation, just to name a few. No Paws also provides regular transportation for Woods humane Society in San Luis Obispo. To date, over 200 cats and dogs have been pulled from local shelters and driven up north where they may live in a safe and loving environment while awaiting their forever home. All res- cued pets are spayed or neutered before being adopted and receive medical care if necessary. Every rescue trans- port is coordinated between the shelters holding the pets, the rescues accepting the pets and the people with No Paws who are doing the driving. Before each transport, the van used by No Paws has to be cleaned and san- itized, as well as all of the kennels used to hold the animals during the drive. This in itself is an all day process. On transport day, the entire trip from Kern County to the Bay Area and back, typically with several stops along the way, takes approximately 15 hours. Each trip carries around 35-40 animals, though No Paws has transported as many as 54 in one outing. No Paws utilizes a 12-passenger cargo van that has had the seats removed to make room for the kennels needed to secure the animals for their journey. When asked about the hardest aspect of coor- dinating the rescue transports, Walker answered, “Making sure everyone is where they need to be, when they need to be there, so things run smoothly.” All of the work No Paws does to secure new homes for shelter pets is done at no charge to the shelters or rescue groups. The organization relies on donations to its 501(c)3 organization to cover the cost of gas, which typically runs $190 for each round trip. Interested in lending No Paws Left Behind Rescue and Transport a hand? Head to their website at: www.nopawsleftbehindrescue.org and make a donation towards their next jour- ney.

Kaeshammer began his career as a solo pianist in his native Germany, but has since expanded his artistry to showcase his warm, commanding vocals and, more recently, original compositions.

C YOUR SCHOOL BY LORNA AND MICHAEL MCWILLIAMS Community contributor he Eighth annual "Walk to Defeat ALS" will be held Saturday, October 1, at the Park at River Walk in Bakersfield. The Walk will help raise money for local patient services and increase awareness of ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease, in Kern County. If you or someone you know has been diagnosed with ALS, then this walk will allow you to get more information and meet others with this progressive disease. Over the past seven years, the Bakersfield commu- nity has contributed over $630,000 making the Bak- ersfield Walk one of the most successful events for the Golden West Chapter of the ALS Association. This success is the result of countless people in our community working hard to improve the lives of those afflicted with ALS. The biggest thrill is seeing all those people, friends and strangers alike, parad- ing around the park in support of our cause. Once again, we call upon the can-do spirit of our communi- ty to help those in need. The ALS Association has been there to help Kern County ALS patients and their families through their most difficult times — from finding doctors to obtain- ing medical equipment, or providing a sympathetic ear. The Walk has helped the ALS Association provide the following services for Kern County: Locate and provide services for nearly 50 percent of ALS patients in Kern County; Hire a Kern County case manager; Monthly support group meetings; Open a center for ALS Care at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center; Sponsor an annual "Ask the Experts" seminars; and, Created local equipment loan pool. Walk registration begins at 8 a.m. and is followed by a 3-mile walk around the park. Sponsorship opportunities are available, and we are forming teams of walkers now. If this disease has affected your family or you know of someone who has ALS, please consider walking in their honor or memory.
