Sassy Lou is a 6-year-old beagle who weighs about 30 pounds. She was adopted in January and then returned to Lollypop Farm because someone in the household was allergic to dogs.

Sassy is a social butterfly who likes to sit in people’s laps and go for rides in the car. She loves to be outside and go on camping trips, too! (She used to be a hunting dog.) Sassy would do best in a home without young children and as the only dog in the house.

She is eligible for the Seniors-for-Seniors program, so adopters age 60 and older can take her home free of charge!

To find out more about Sassy Lou, call 223-1330 or visit her at Lollypop Farm at 99 Victor Rd., Fairport 14450.

Sassy, our "Friday's Friend" from last week with a similar name, has been adopted!

Educational budget cuts are common, forcing schools in every state to either eliminate valued programs or search for other means of funding.

“We know how important extracurricular activities are to our high school students, and as part of this community, we want to help,” said Aki Henderson, business development manager at Henderson Ford. “This is why we’re excited to raise money for Bishop Kearney High School meanwhile introducing parents, teenagers and other drivers to our high-quality lineup and innovative safety technologies.”

To address these needs at a local level and empower communities to support and protect valued programs, Ford Motor Company and its dealers partner with high schools across the United States to offer the Drive One 4 UR School program. This initiative has raised more than $10 million through nearly 3,000 events since its inception in 2007, and provides up to $6,000 per school through test drives of Ford products.
