Pets of the Week November 30, 2015

Azula
Always full of fun surprises, Azula is a ginger and white, Hound/Weimeraner mix just under one-year-old. She loves playing, running, frolicking, romping, or basically any activity that keeps her amused. This pooch’s perfect match is someone who will let her be part of the home and give her the extra attention she needs to be all that she can be. Azula is very intelligent and teachable. She desires to please and protect, so she comes with a pre-installed natural warning feature. She will vocally alert you whenever a stranger is approaching and/or something has changed. All that for no extra charge! Because she wants to give her love and attention to only one family, she would flourish better as the only pet in the household. If you want fun, a new adoring friend, and have the skills to work with a doggie genius, then you want Azula.

Black Betty
Black Betty can best be described as a free spirit who loves room to roam where she can express her inner wild child. She was only five-weeks-old when she was found alone and meowing from underneath a building. She was rescued by a passerby and brought to the animal shelter where she received much love and attention. After living in a foster home for two months, she’s back at the shelter and as carefree as ever. She loves to climb and dash about, occasionally doing a sideways crab dance, and preferring to be at your feet, rather in your lap. She’s a high spunk gal full of entertaining antics and hijinks. Oooh, Black Betty, bam-a-lam.

Pets of the Week November 25, 2015

Maisy
Attention active people and go-getters! For those who would love a companion to run, walk, play, or just be goofy with, Maisy was made just for you. She is a lovesome 2-year-old shepherd mix who loves to get out and enjoy life; she is no “couch potato.” She displays the typical personality traits of a Shepherd — intelligence, strength, and loyalty. Even though she has a lot of playful energy, she uses it for romping or toy playing, not for jumping on people. When approaching her she instantly rolls over for a belly rub, a true sign of politeness. A companion for both people and dogs alike, she would make an ideal new addition to any family.

Tango
“Striking” is the best word to describe Tango. With a beautiful torbie coat and a very outgoing personality, Tango is an eye and heart-catcher for sure. If the stripes and splotches of her soft coat don’t mesmerize you, her cheerful meowing and friendly attitude will definitely steal all of your attention. Full grown at just over nine pounds, Tango is a smallish cat with a larger-than-life personality. She loves attention and returning it with lavish affection. She gets along with most cats, but really shines when she’s the center of attention. Tango is waiting for you, so don’t waste any time meeting her and making her a new member of your happy family.

Pets of the Week November 16, 2015

Danimal
At less than one-year-old, Danimal is a darling Chihuahua and Terrier mix. Brought to the Animal Shelter for circumstances beyond his control, he was at first scared and nervous by the sudden change in his lifestyle. After some TLC, he quickly revealed his true personality. Like most young boys, he loves to play outside, loves having both people and doggie friends. Danimal has few demands. A toy or two, a cozy bed, and a scratch under the chin, and he is happy as a lark. He is patiently awaiting to once again have a home and share his life and love with others.

Kendra
With a faraway gaze, little Miss Kendra is the ultimate day dreamer. All the time that she’s spent with her head in the clouds has paid off, leaving her as gentle, plush, and soft as can be. Kendra’s short coat is patched grey and gold with watercolor artistry. At only one year old, her personality is purr-fectly peaceful and serene even with plenty of feline roommates. One can only imagine what this lovely young lady is pondering, as she sits in her favorite window; a cozy, quiet home full of comfy perches and sunny views outside, with a family always happy to cuddle. For now she sits patiently waiting at her lookout point for her new family to walk into her life and make this fanciful feline a true day dream believer.

Pets of the week November 9, 2015

Rico
This beautiful black and white American Pitbull mix has had setbacks in his life. Rico was adopted, but returned because his owner moved and couldn’t take him along. Now this sweet boy is awaiting his true forever home. He is one year young and filled with playful energy, but behaves with restraint around people, especially children, as if he knows he’s a big boy and needs to practice safety first. Like many dogs, he is not a good choice for a home with cats. Rico is smart and has learned sit and is working on his other commands. Rico needs a home and a large yard where he can play and run would be best, and he would be a great indoor and outdoor family dog. If you’re looking for a large, goofy dog who loves to cuddle, then Rico is the perfect pooch for you!

Zeelee
Zeelee is a four-month-old kitten with an unique name to match her unique personality. She is both a little shy and yet can be cheerfully playful. Will she scamper up and play with your shoelaces or will she stay where she is and play “hard to get?” Will she chase the toy you tossed her way or will she “duck and cover” under a blanket? It’s as if she feels cautious, but then remembers she’s a kitten! These very different behaviors make her a great blend of being not too rough and not too mellow, perfect for a family who wants a kitten who’s just right.

Pets of the Week November 2, 2015

Butch
Butch fits all the words that define his name — muscular, strong, and strapping. Yet amazingly he wasn’t the picture of health when he was found lost in Ware Shoals. He was emaciated, injured, and a bit timid, unsure of what would befall him next. And today he’s playful, happy, and affectionate, not looking back at his past, but hoping for a better tomorrow. Making up for lost time, Butch loves to play endlessly with his stuffed toys. And with his thick white coat, he looks a bit like a stuffed toy himself. The only thing Butch loves more than his toys is food. Given his physical condition when he came to the animal shelter, it’s no wonder that he joyfully partakes in regular meals. He has a lot of energy, is eager to please, and learning quite admirably how to leash walk. Meet Butch and see why this big strong “teddy bear” of a dog is the perfect addition to your home.

Simon
At only four-weeks-old, Simon and his brother were found stray in Ninety Six. Living in foster care, where they both could stay healthy and stress-free, they returned to the animal shelter to be adopted. Simon’s brother quickly left for a new home and now Simon patiently awaits the same. Don’t feel sorry for this two-toned black and silver fluff bug, he has a good time anywhere and everywhere he is. He enjoys playing with toys, but mostly he wants to give and receive affection. A gentle stroke of his plush coat or a cuddle and a hug, and he’ll reward the kindness with a soothing purr, a head butt and returned hug. He has rather big paws for a five-month-old youngster, so he is probably going to grow up to be a big boy, which means there will be more of him to love and be loved by!
