Pets of the Week October 12, 2015

Anne
Looking for a calm, easy to care for pet? Look no further! At six years old, Anne is a dream dog for those looking for a canine companion. Passed all the destructive energy of a puppy, but not quite into her twilight years, she is laid back and friendly. She loves nothing more than attention from you, understands the value of quiet indoor time, but is still up for an occasional outdoor romp. Being a Beagle/Lab mix she is the delightful size of neither “too big” nor “too small.” She has no problem with other dogs and treats them like she does people, everyone is a new potential friend. Just meet Anne, we know that once you start petting her you won’t want to stop, and she won’t want you to either!

Zakory
Everyone knows a person who is always “on” — always joking or making others laugh, good for any game or adventure. Well, that’s Zakory, the handsome, 5-month-old, black-and-white cat in a nutshell! Zackory loves to play — with people, toys, his environment, or even that piece of lint on the floor. Everything is a toy and fun game to Zakory. If you are looking for a cute little clown for your home, a friend who always makes you laugh, or someone who always want to play with you, then you are looking for Zakory. Play a game with him and see for yourself the little piece of joy missing from your home.

Pets of the Week October 5, 2015

Toffee
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.

Muriel
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.

Pets of the Week September 28, 2015

Sasha
Two-year-old Sasha is a long, lean, loving machine. This 45 lb. Shepherd mix is a bundle of fun energy who loves running and romping and would make a wonderful jogging and hiking buddy. Her best doggie friend, Monty, was just adopted and together they used to play chase until both were exhausted from … playing chase. Living with an active family would be the perfect fit for her and having a dog friend would just be the icing on the cake. Sasha’s zest for life is contagious and if you need a canine coach to help get you moving and active, she would love to be the one.

Velvet
Velvet could not be more appropriately named. Her soft plush gray and white coat is a delight to the touch and her easygoing personality equally as capitivating. At two-years-old, this cool cat is a champion in the game of hide-and-seek. She camouflages herself in any setting and then takes great pleasure in watching we humans look for her. As if showing her seekers mercy, she will eventually reveal herself and parade along the floor meowing, “I was here all along!” Velvet gets along with other cats, dogs, and even kiddos. Adopt this lovely lady and add an casual elegance to your home.

Pets of the Week September 21, 2015

Wilma
6-year-old, Hound and Border Collie mix Wilma Flintstone needs a home. When her previous owner passed away, her life took a sudden and drastic turn — no home, no family, and living in an animal shelter with 90 other dogs. The good news is that she has a heart and love that surpasses her circumstances. She’s an amazingly well-balanced pooch, the Hound in her likes to relax and chill out. If she has visitors who want to play, she’s quick to oblige and will show off her Border Collie skills running circles around everyone. Medium-sized Wilma loves kids, older folks, and everyone else in-between. She is a resilient dog who wants to once again have a loving companion and warm home to call her own.

Stoney
Silly and swift, Stoney is a cat lover’s action dream. At ten months old, he still has all the playful exuberance of a kitten and will be a footloose and fun-loving cat for years to come. Stoney has a creamy, orange tabby coat with little white mittens that are perfect for getting into laughable mischief. Although he is deaf, he really needs an outdoor area to live and perform his acrobatic antics and the “song of his people.” He likes to sing, but can’t hear himself to know that … well, his style is “unique.” Stoney is fine around other pets, but because he is packed with high-throttle energy he is best suited for homes without small children. Add some entertaining kitty hijinks to your life by adopting Stoney!

Pets of the Week September 14, 2015

Wallace
Wallace is a two-year-old, golden brown and white American Staffordshire Terrier and no ordinary pup. He has door manners — he waits to be invited in ?and? out, not forcing his way into your space. And he’s brilliant! All you have to do is ask and he’ll sit, lie down, roll over, and shake your paw, but not all at one time because that would be weird. Give him a gentle back rub and he will reward you with an ear-to-ear smile e?l?iciting your mirrored response. What follows is Wallace’s gradual progression into doggie nirvana with his eyes slowly closing, his body becoming limp, and all leading to a grand finale of him stretched out on the ground in pure meditative bliss. You can almost see a cartoon bubble above his head that reads: “I’m dreaming of sharing my life and love in a new home with you. Ahhhhhhh. Life’s great!”

Ichabod
Calm, cool and independent Those words best describe satin black Ichabod, a two-year-old shorthaired eye-catching feline stunner. Try to avoid the hypnotic allure and power of his jade green eyes. You can’t do it. He displays the stealth skills of a cat who would make a successful hunter. With his deep black camouflaged coat, he could be quite effective at keeping your home free of unwanted pests. But don’t assume that he’s all work and no play. Lounging and just “being” is a-okay with Ichabod. Yes. He is one cool cat.
