Harper's Hope for Homeless Hounds Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Purple Monkey Dishwasher: Sadly, I'm archiving this one. I was able to check out the area last week and it looks like this one is gone. Given that the cache was in place for more than 5 years and I now live in Canada and there seems to be an Animal Friends expansion in the works, it is time to let this one go. Thanks to all who found it over the years.

And, many, many thanks to Animal Friends for allowing me to place this cache. My dog Harper is still with our family, he has become a Canadian snow dog.

Geocache Description:

This cache is hidden on the grounds of the Animal Friends shelter located on Camp Horne Road. The cache was placed with permission from Animal Friends.



My dog, Harper, is an Animal Friends "alumni" -- he was adopted from the shelter in April 2004. He was a little skittish and a lot wild on the day when we brought him home. Harper has turned out to be a well-behaved and loyal geocaching companion.

Animal Friends recently moved their shelter to this new location. This new state of the art facility will allow them to house even more animals and provide outdoor play areas and walks. Harper's Hope for Homeless Hounds is that this new shelter location will allow more animals to find humane and loving homes.

The new location includes a wooded area which currently has a short walking trail. There are plans to expand this walking trail so that people and animals can enjoy the woods. The cache is hidden in the wooded area.

Cache is a small ammo box. FTF prize is a $10 gift certificate to use at the gift shop inside the shelter. There are also some nice Animal Friends logo items for early finders.

Many thanks to Animal Friends for allowing me to place this cache. Also, many thanks to dlucas, a geocacher and Animal Friends volunteer, who assisted with getting permission for cache placement.
