Calm Kiki Gets Along Well With Everybody
Kiki is a five-year-old Malamute with a heart as big as her fluffy coat! This lovely girl has a wonderful temperament, making her an easy fit for a variety of homes. She’s shown that she gets along well with other dogs and has a gentle, friendly nature that makes her great with both adults and kids. Though she may exchange a few barks with other high-energy dogs, Kiki is relaxed and doesn’t mind hanging out with smaller pups close by.
On walks, Kiki is a dream, calmly staying by your side on a leash. She takes treats with a gentle mouth and is always excited to meet new friends, whether human or furry. During grooming sessions, she’s the perfect companion, lying relaxed and allowing her handler to brush her thick coat, even giving a little “chat” here and there as if to show her appreciation.
Kiki would be a wonderful addition to a loving home that can provide her with the attention she deserves, plenty of brushing, and lots of love. If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing, and affectionate dog, Kiki could be the perfect match for you!
Kiki and all other pets over five years old have their adoption fees waived throughout November in celebration of Adopt-A-Senior-Pet Month!

Jewish Federation Calls for 'Buycott' of Israeli-Made Products at Trader Joe's
The buycott (a reverse boycott) campaign encourages people to visit their local Trader Joe’s and purchase the Israeli-made products the chain regularly sells on their shelves: Bamba Puffed Peanut & Corn Snacks (Original, Hazelnut Crème Filling, and Dark Chocolate dipped), Dorot Gardens Crushed Garlic and Crushed Ginger, Trader Joe’s Israeli Feta Cheese, and Givon Wine. When checking out, buycott supporters are encouraged to let Trader Joe’s staff know how much they appreciate being able to buy products made in Israel at their local Trader Joe’s stores.
"Protests and petitions like this one planned to target Trader Joe’s does not advance the cause of peace but only furthers the anti-Jewish sentiment and hate Jewish community members have been the target of for the last year," explains Jason Moss, Executive Director of the Jewish Federation of the Greater San Gabriel and Pomona Valleys. "And for Jews and everyone who supports Israel, living here in the US, this is a way they can show their support by going to their local Trader Joes and buying up all of their Israeli products."
Jewish Federation is encouraging other Jewish and non-Jewish organizations that support Israel, from all across the country, to participate in this campaign by shopping at their local Trader Joes. They have already received a commitment from Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington and are reaching out for others.
To learn more about this effort or the other work the Jewish Federation does, including its programs and services, contact the Jewish Federation's Executive Director, Jason Moss, by calling 626.445.0810 or emailing federation@jewishsgpv.org.
