CAPS

Weekly Spotlight 

Big Guy is a 2-year-old Labrador Retriever and Border Collie mix with a heart full of potential. Rescued from a hoarding situation, he’s shy around strangers but becomes a total sweetheart once he feels safe. He loves ball-on-a-rope toys, enjoys exercise, and is equally happy snuggling on the couch. Big Guy attends doggy day care, is curious about other animals, and is learning basic commands. He’ll do best with a patient, understanding owner who can give him time to build trust and confidence. If you're ready to earn the love of a loyal companion, come meet Big Guy today.

FAWG

Meet Bunny, a 6-month-old Manx with a bobtail and a big heart. This soft, affectionate kitten loves people and wants nothing more than to be by your side—following you from room to room, chirping and curling up close. Bunny has a playful streak too, enjoying toy chases and the occasional zoomie session, but she’s just as happy snuggling in your lap. She’s spayed, vaccinated, and ready to be your one and only—Bunny does best as the only pet in the home. Visit our adoption center to meet this sweet girl and see if she’s the perfect fit for your heart and home.

 

City of Fallon Animal Shelter

 

Meet Q (D-303), a 4-year-old Belgian Malinois with brains, loyalty, and a gentle nature. A little shy at first, Q warms up quickly and knows basic commands like “sit,” “stay,” and “down.” He’s great with dogs, cats, and people—though kittens still spook him a bit. Q would thrive with an owner who understands working breeds and has space for him to run—no apartments, please. Once he trusts you, he’ll be your loyal, fetch-loving companion for life. Think Q could be the one? Give us a call or stop by to meet him.

HagenComment text: What are MFNs and PBMs ?? ............................ From the editor: This is a very good question and we apologize for not catching that wasn't in there. We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
