What comes to mind when you hear “Pluto?” Chances are it’s either the once-planet or Disney’s well-known best friend of Mickey Mouse. Oddly enough, Pluto the Shepherd mix seems to have a little something in common with both namesakes. Much like the once-planet, at only 50 lbs, Pluto is not quite large enough to qualify for his breed type. This guy is just a little shy of the weight of some of his larger purebred cousins, which makes him an excellent dog for those who want the shepherd breed qualities, without the shepherd breed size! And much like Pluto the cartoon dog, our beautiful black and tan Pluto just wants to be someones best friend. Pluto loves people and is happiest when he’s with someone. He has exceptional leash manners and is very well-behaved when it’s time for a walk. At one-year-old, he’s passed the larger part of his puppyhood, but still has some overflowing exuberance. So Pluto’s perfect family would be one willing to give him that extra bit of attention and to help him finish learning puppy manners. Pluto also loves other dogs and would fit right in to a new family’s “pack.” Hurry and come meet Pluto today and see why this guy is your new best friend in waiting.

Never pushy, she quietly asks for cuddles and love and is never cross when scooped up and placed back inside her shelter cage.

Her quiet presence would be the perfect addition to any house. So don’t wait! Meet and pet on Piper today and let her work her charms on you!

Toffee is a gentle, 4-year-old, Shepherd mix with dark carmel-colored doe eyes. She loves a good long walk and will keep pace with you, not pulling or tugging. She came to the shelter as a stray wearing a spiked collar and sporting several injuries. She looked rough, tough, and scary, but it was quickly realized that she was, instead, sugary sweet and loving. During her road to recovery, she endured much medical poking and prodding with Job-like patience and now she’s in ship shape and ready for a new home. Visit her at the Animal Shelter and you’ll find her she’s sitting pretty and patiently awaiting your attention and kindness. She’ll return the gesture with unconditional love and enduring loyalty.

Perhaps it takes a lifetime to deeply understand all of life’s lessons. This must explain how Muriel became so patient and kind. Muriel is a 10-year-old brown and white Tabby who has all the finest virtues you could ask of a house cat. She is already a master at living inside and she keeps her short coat and her living spaces spotless. Her personality soothes those around her and Muriel has this effect on people, as well as other pets. Her spirit isn’t dampened, but why should such a kind and gentle feline spend one more moment without a family of her own? Compassion and companionship embraces all ages of pets and the lucky family that brings Muriel into their home will learn just how priceless unconditional love can be.
