Pets of the Week January 28, 2019

ClaraThere’s something special about an older dog. They’re calmer and quieter with eyes that express the wisdom of their years. Clara is a prime example. This 8-year-old Blue Tick Hound’s deep brown eyes radiate kindness and offer a glimpse into an experienced soul. Despite her senior status, she’s still a hound, which means she loves an adventure and will happily explore wherever she finds herself. Clara gets along with everyone – adults, children, dogs, and cats alike. She’s a loving, gentle girl who’s hoping someone special is going to welcome her into their home for the rest of her life.

MiriumMirium is just as sophisticated and ladylike as you would expect her to be with such a time-honored name. She’s only a year old, so quite young, but she shows a wisdom beyond her years as she expresses little interest in chasing around toys, much preferring to sit quietly and simply be adored. And Mirium’s beauty lives up to her name as well – she’s a gorgeous dilute Tortoiseshell, mostly gray, accented throughout with a creamy orange. And her large, bright green eyes are nothing short of mesmerizing. Come meet lady Mirium today.

Pets of the Week January 21, 2019

JebJeb is living proof that good things come in, well, large packages. He is a big boy. But don’t let that fool you into thinking he doesn’t see himself as a lapdog. This one-year-old gentle giant is perfectly willing to snuggle with just about anyone he meets. He really isn’t picky. He likes other dogs and every person he’s ever met. Jeb is also very handsome, as you would expect with a Retriever-Blue Heeler mix. He black coat is liberally painted with speckled gray and white, from his muzzle to his chest and down his legs. Jeb loves toys and treats, but, most of all, he loves attention. Come meet him today. You won’t be disappointed.

Tort It’s impossible to meet Tort and not have the word “cute” pop into your head. She’s quite beautiful, with her white, black, and butterscotch coat, but it’s the fact that she’s a pint-sized kitty with plump little toes that give her feet an adorably rounded appearance and a tiny meow that’s no more than a squeak which make her simply irresistible. Tort is distinctive in another way as well: she’s a special needs cat with a mouth condition that does require continued care. This sweet two-year-old Calico doesn’t let that affect her attitude though. She loves attention and will readily come to you for scratches and head bumps.

Pets of the Week January 14, 2019

JoyThere’s no need to delve too deeply into why this 6-year-old Terrier mix is named Joy. It’s immediately obvious due to her calm, laid-back personality and desire to spend as much time as possible with her people. She seems to be happiest when taking a long walk or snuggling with a favorite buddy, as opposed to chasing around toys. Joy is a pleasure to look at as well, with her lovely brindle coat accented with a splash of purest white on her chest. Plus, she gets along well with other dogs. So, in short, Joy is a true delight and is sure to bring happiness to any household lucky enough to claim her.

RaymondRaymond is quite possibly the definition of the perfect cat. He’s 4 years old, so he’s moved beyond the mischievous kitten stage and settled into what would be considered a more mature, chilled out, loving phase. That doesn’t mean he isn’t interested in toys, because he certainly enjoys the chance to bat around his favorite playthings, but ultimately, he wants attention from his humans, whether that means lots of scratches and belly rubs or the chance to settle down in a lap for a good long snooze. And yes, Raymond will gladly tell you what he wants, as he’s quite the talker. Swing by and meet him today.

Pets of the Week January 7, 2019

RhondaRhonda is a princess, a worker, and a love bug rolled into one. This dappled-gray and white one-year-old Catahoula Leopard mix has both beauty and brains as well as a deep desire to please that is simply irresistible. Being a working breed, she has loads of energy, so she’s hoping for a home with a large fenced-in yard or at least the chance to take long walks consistently. Rhonda prefers the company of humans rather than that of other furry creatures, she loves treats, and is quite intelligent, so she should take to training easily. And when she’s done playing with her favorite toys, she’ll smooth in for a big hug and a long snuggle.

JillOne look at Jill, and you know right away that here is a cat who knows her own mind. And indeed she does. She is just over a year old, very self-assured, and simply lovely. A gorgeous brown Tabby with black highlights here and there, including on the bottoms of her feet, Jill is as pretty as she is affectionate. She adores attention from her humans, happily accepting scratches and cuddles and offering affection in return by way of head bumps, hugs, and a gentle purr. Jill does like her own space, however, when it comes to other critters and is hoping to find a home where she can receive ALL of the TLC.

Pets of the Week December 31, 2018

DenoThe first thing that pops into your mind when you meet Deno is that he is one silly pup. And he is. From his comical expressions to his innocently sweet personality, he is sure to make you laugh every day. Deno is a 1-year-old Black Labrador Retriever mix with a white chin and a strip of white down his chest. Being a young fellow, he has plenty of energy, seeming to love squeaky toys more than anything else. And, of course, he also wants to spend time with his people. He gets along well with other dogs, and is overall, just a wonderfully even-tempered pooch. Come meet Deno today.

MelissaIs your family missing something? Perhaps a special animal that wants nothing more than to curl up in your lap while you read or watch TV? If so, than look no further than Melissa. This gorgeous 1-year-old Calico is a gentle soul who’s grown out of that playful kitten stage, much preferring to simply relax in a favorite spot and be adored. Her orange, black, and white coat is truly magnificent, and her yellow-golden eyes radiate intelligence. Melissa likes having her humans all to herself, and she’s hoping that perfect someone is going to come along and treat her like the princess she is.
