Chopper Invited To Deliver Christmas Cheer
At His First "Official Event"

SAN DIEGO, CA - (2009) Life is filled with “firsts” whether it’s your first kiss, your first day in school, your first motorcycle ride… no matter what the event, we always remember the “firsts” in our lives.

For Chopper (and his owner Mark), Chopper’s first event where he was invited to appear as a guest was one that will always be remembered for a number of reasons:

First, it was a very special event: The 2009 edition of the annual Holiday Christmas Party, put together by a group of San Diego Businessmen known as “The Nice Guys” who, for more than 30 years, have helped hundreds of deserving individuals and families throughout the San Diego community who have fallen on hard times.

Chopper Takes Top Dog Honors
At "Fiesta del Paws"

San Diego, CA – (2010) Anyone who has ever had a pet knows the important role they play in our lives every day. But the love and devotion of a pet is particularly important to one who is sick, elderly or disabled. Unfortunately, it's often at the time a person needs their pet the most that they are least able to care for them due to reasons beyond their control either physically or financially due to their age or health-related crisis. This is where PAWS (Pets Are Wonderful Support)  San Diego County, Inc. steps up to help.
