Nathan Adelson Hospice’s Pet Therapy Program is once again helping four-legged furry friends in the local animal shelters.

The hospice’s Pet Therapy Program, which comprises 14 trained therapy dogs, will hold its 7th Annual Dog Bed & Blanket Drive to help keep animals warm this season as the colder weather permeates the Las Vegas valley.
 
From Jan. 1 through Feb. 28, 2018, all Nathan Adelson Hospice locations will serve as drop-off points for new or gently used items including: Dog and cat beds; blankets; towels; wash cloths; linens; and unopened pet food.

The donation drop-off locations are: 4141 Swenson St., Las Vegas; 3150 N. Tenaya Way (near Cheyenne), Suite 350, in the Mountain View Medical Office Building, Las Vegas; 2270 E. Commercial Rd., Suite A/B in Pahrump; and 1201 Nevada State Drive in Henderson.
 
Also, SilverSummit Healthplan, a managed care plan that provides health insurance to the people of Nevada, and NetEffect, a full-service provider of computer and information technology support and consulting services for businesses, will serve as additional drop-off points. The address for SilverSummit Healthplan is 2500 N. Buffalo Dr., Floor 2 (near Smoke Ranch), Las Vegas, NV  89128. NetEffect is located at 5575 S. Durango Dr., Suite 110, in Las Vegas.
