Pets of the Week July 28, 2014

Sporty-BC
He’s the breed of legendary loyalty made famous by the movie “Hachiko” — 3 year old, 55 lb. Akita mix “Sporty B” embodies the attributes which made his Akita ancestors a national monument in their native Japan. Sporty’s dignified, mannerly, and independent, a courageous guard dog who’s patient with kids and excellent on a leash, and his purpose in life is to form a single-minded bond with his beloved forever family. Sporty listens well and would be a dream to train, he’ll already “sit” for a treat. Akitas are known to be dominant, so Sporty should be your only dog — cats however, are fine. Come meet the most exciting friend you’ll ever find, and enjoy devotion that’s truly a breed apart.

Pierce
He was trapped when tiny at a lakeside feral colony, but 3-month-young Pierce is quite the opposite of wild; he’s so innately refined he was born in a Tuxedo, and his cheerful, humming purr and snugly face rubs will chase any doubts about his love for humans. (He’ll be shy for a moment, then his lap cat instincts kick in, and he’s as calm and comforting a friend as you’ll find). Pierce is good with other cats, gentle with kids, and gets along happily with well- mannered dogs, too. He could be a fine house feline who’ll never need to dress for dinner, or live inside/outside as long as you’re available for a serious affection-fest, with purrs aplenty and some soft kneading, too. Pierce’s already neutered and ready to go home today, come and be caught by a warm companion in formal wear.

The Greenwood Humane Society is a not-for-profit organization committed to the compassionate care and protection of animals.

Their purpose is to give sanctuary to abandoned, abused, and neglected animals, provide education to the public on responsible and humane pet ownership, encourage the public to spay and neuter their pets by providing low cost surgery, and encourage adoptions of those animals placed in their care.

Their adoption center is open Monday through Saturday 10:00am to 5:00pm est.
