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.

Pets of the Week July 21, 2014

Nova
At 3 years old and 55 lbs., Retriever mix Nova’s destined to be the brightest family dog in your galaxy; he’s so perceptive he’ll run and romp with the big kids, then walk ever so carefully around a little child; so cooperative he refuses to potty in his run, and returns to his kennel on request. Nova’s white-tipped tail never stops wagging and he gives kisses the moment you ask; hug his neck and he’ll rest in your arms. Nova gets along great with other dogs, is good on a leash and would love the lake, but will settle into a baby pool with a gracious white-toothed smile. Come embrace a match made in heaven, your new son Nova is here.

Thomas
He’s a debonair 2-year-old in a fine a blue-gray suit, with a white star at his collar no less; but his demeanor outshines even his elegant good looks. Thomas is alert, responsive, affectionate and attentive; an avid listener who offers his own judicious comments only after hearing all you have to say. Despite his social charms, Thomas would enjoy a little independence, maybe as a stunning porch feline rather than a lap cat. (He comes when you call, never fear.) Thomas likes a little distance from other cats, but thinks dogs are just fine; he’s already neutered and ready
to grace your home today. Come meet our delightful boy in blue-gray, and let your colorful friendship begin.

Pets of the Week July 14, 2014

Twinkle
Her name’s “Twinkle” because she’s a little star — a 19 lb., 5-months-young Boxer/Retriever mix who’s a shining example of combined breeds creating a stellar family dog. Twinkle’s femininity shines nonstop, so does her warm friendship for kids and others dogs — even cats. Twinkle listens well, is good on a leash and can sit for a treat; she’s perceptive, playful, gentle (her mouth is like velvet) and cooperative. Adopt her now and teach her your family’s ways, she’s treat-motivated and would be a dream to train. See how many kisses and wags this little star has to give, and let Twinkle light up your world.

Brat Pack
Meet the Brat Pack — four-month-old litter mates Emilio, Andrew, Rob and Demi are named for the stars of Saint Elmo s fire, they’re outgoing, active, popular, and admirably good-looking. (There is, however, no bratty behavior in sight, just lots and lots of purrs.) Demi and Andrew have a bit of white bling on their chests, otherwise they’re pure svelte black, with wise and witty brown eyes constantly searching for fun and snuggles, at which they excel. Our Brats adore each other but are so people-loving that they’d happily go home with you separately. Our little
celebs are already fixed and microchipped; take 1 or 2 home today, and enjoy a forever-fan club of your very own.

Pets of the Week July 7, 2014

Diesel
Where he learned his enviable manners is the utmost mystery; one-year-old Shepherd mix Diesel was found stray, but he epitomizes the intelligence, loyalty and trustworthiness for which shepherds are revered. At 70 lbs. he’s glowingly handsome, a tall, gentle, boy who delighted the kids at Camp Good Dog with kisses and full-body-wags. Diesel’s a fun friend to other dogs; he loves romping the yard and dunking his head in his water bowl, but enjoys listening and learning just as much (he can “sit” for a treat and is great on a leash, too.) Come write your own ending to the Diesel mystery; he’s already neutered and ready to be a proud part of your family story.

Kitty
She came to us with the most understated of names, simply “Kitty,” a 5 year-old declawed darling whose owner was forced to turn her in, leaving her shy and wide-eyed, but willing. Kitty’s determined to love her new family as thoroughly as she loved her last; you’ll fall for her quiet courage and perceptive face in a minute. Kitty must be your inside cat, she gets along fine with other felines, keeps a neat box, and would enjoy older kids who’ll be as gentle with her as she will with them. Come meet the bashful feline who has eons to offer, and be the lucky
second family to our one and only Kitty.

Pets of the Week June 30, 2014

Rambler
Fuse Great Pyrenees patience and composure with Border Collie intelligence, then throw in some Lab for all-American appeal and you have a 50 lb. friend (he’s only 3 and more polite than most of us, no offense) so charming you must meet him to believe him. Rambler won popularity contests paws-down at Camp Good Dog; he’s a dream with kids — fun, gentle and trustworthy, and a go-to playmate for other dogs too. Handsome Rambler’s a delightful medium-size; he thrives on learning and can already sit for a treat, he’s great on a leash and will kennel himself on request. (You can even pick him up like a baby.) Rambler could easily be your inside son, with a yard for playtime please; he’s fine with cats and ready to become the most beloved member of your family. Come meet the mixed-breed, pure-pleasure phenom named Rambler.

Rose
Torti cats bring good luck according to Irish lore; whoever adopts our richly-colored 3-year-old “Rose” will be fortunate indeed. At 9 lbs. and full grown Rose will be forever small — a sweet, quiet and independent little lady — neat as a pin with her box, and the very opposite of needy in terms of personality. Rose is perfect for gracing a quiet home (one with older kids or none at all); she’ll live happily inside/outside, or sharing your apartment would be fun too. Rose enjoys her own space and demands little else, she simply wants to keep you company; with some nice
snuggles, of course. (She ignore other cats, her focus is you.) See how easy it is to feel lucky every day, with a steadfast little girl named Rose by your side.
