Hi everyone, please help donate anything you can to help cover veterinary bills.
This dog was found on 495 near Shary Street in Mission, TX. I was driving home and saw this injured dog in the middle of the street, still alive and wagging her tail after being run over. I pulled over to move her and she was still actively breathing and is able to move around, however, she is in pain.

Unfortunately, I am not able to cover the full expense, so any help is appreciated. If you like to donate you can find the link in my bio or use the one below.

Although she has no collar, it is noticeable that she is not a stray as she has recently trimmed nails. If possible, please also share in hopes to find her owners.

In this workshop you will receive an egg shaped dome that is 8 inches tall and 6 inches wide, which is a lot bigger than our normal terrarium domes that we use for these workshops! You will also be working with the lovely Xylocopa aestuans aka the Yellow Carpenter Bee to include inside your dome!

One of my hopes for Paper Caper Co is that it would be a place for people to slow down, enjoy inspiring art, learn something new, cause people to wonder, and connect with themselves & the Earth. Rest is essential for our existence. It is incredibly important & despite popular belief, it is extremely productive. For this reason, our “workshops” are called “restshops,” a time for you to connect with others & yourself. A time for you to learn something new & relax. Here’s what’s coming up in March!
