Pets of the Week January 5, 2014

Wiggles
Wiggles is an 11 month old pup that has perfected one awesome move. She has the ability to shimmy her way right into your heart, lap, arms, and living room — all places she would love to tumble into as soon as she can! Wiggles weighs 45lb so she will fit snuggly into any sized home, as long as she gets plenty of exercise and time to dance around with her family. This happy-go-lucky puppy has a pretty tan and grey short coat, with a pair of brown eyes that will melt your heart. Wiggles has a lot of playful energy and would do best in a home with older children and a family that is looking to add some cheer to their days. Wiggles is easy to please and needs room to romp around the park. Visit this wiggly giggly pup today and start you New Year with a fun forever friend.

Winnie
Rare and wonderful, Winnie’s calico pattern is one of a kind. Her affectionate nature and kitten curiosity make her even more extraordinary! She purrs and cuddles when held close, and can’t help but rub and love on people. Winnie is also very friendly with other pets and would do great in a home with children. At 7 months old, Winnie still has some growing to do but she is already a good mix of playful and laid-back. Her short brightly-colored coat is a mishmash of orange tabby stripes and jet black patches, with a perfect little black mask over her eyes. Winnie has been fostered as an inside kitty cat so she has impeccable house and litterbox manners. Winnie is just the sweetest thing and only hopes for family of her own to cuddle up with while they wait for spring to arrive. Come meet Winnie at the Greenwood County Animal Shelter and meet this little star shine.

Pets of the Week December 29, 2014

Leroy
Leroy has all the appeal of an old timer’s storytelling, but he’s ready to start his own brand new adventure. The Plott Hound has a fine reputation as a beloved hunting companion and family member, and Leroy is an excellent example of his breed. So loved in North Carolina, Plott Hounds are the state’s official dog. Leroy has the stamina to make a wonderful workout buddy and will need ample time exercising outdoors; his athletic nature and loud bay make him better suited for a home with access to a yard. Leroy’s treeing instinct doesn’t please many felines so a home without a kitty cat will be where he’s hoping to head soon. He’s only three years old but Leroy is gentle and well-mannered with people of all ages, and his handsome red brindle coat is easy to keep clean. He’s always happy wagging his tail while on the lookout for that special family waiting to start a new adventure of their own. He’s got boundless love and fun to give, and he’s ready to make your family complete!

Steve
Ever charming, Steve is a cat who’s as handsome as he is clever. Steve prefers to stay ahead of the game, so he keeps his huge amber eyes wide open for good things to come his way. He’s a substantial Classic Tabby with a thick, velvety coat. His fur gleams in rich warm tones, and his big soft paws love to reach out and “ask” you for a pat on the shoulder. Steve is the kind of feline that finds himself at home in most situations, so he’d be very happy living inside and out. Friendly as can be, Steve does well with other kitties. He prefers companionship so much that he has many times been found curled up in his neighbor’s kennel. 4 years old, calm and courteous, this furry friend is ready to head home today! He’s been talking up a storm about the life he hopes to lead with his forever family, and he’s keeping an eye out for that special loving person to walk through the door. A warm lap to curl up in is all this laid back kitty is dreaming of for the holidays.

Pets of the Week December 22, 2014

Roxie
A friendlier fashionista cannot be found. The buck stops with Roxie, a beautiful Dachshund mix, who’s looking to steal your heart. Roxie sports a smooth brindle coat and a set of matching white socks. She has as much charm as she has style, and Roxie is ready to lavish it all on her new family. She’s a smaller gal, weighing only 25lb, and at a year old she’s fully grown so she is going to fit right in to living spaces large and small. Roxie would prefer to keep her company with older children and up, and she gets along well with cats and like-minded dogs. Give this little lady a warm lap to cuddle in and you’ll learn she won’t even mind the silly holiday sweater. She knows that love is the only accessory that counts and can’t wait to show how good unconditional love looks this season.

Bowtie
Bowtie has an air of mystery about him that sets him apart. Even in a sea of tuxedos, his luxurious, long, black and white coat is a stand out. Bowtie has perfected his manners over the past 5 years and he’s a cat who knows how to think on his feet. Clever and curious, he would love to live an indoor/outdoor life with room to breathe and explore his domain. Bowtie has little time for other pets and would much rather spend his days lavishing his human companions with affection. His purr is warm and rumbling and Bowtie is a “talker” too, always ready to mew and coo at visitors. Suave as can be, this feline may be Mr. Independent but he is the ultimate example of a loving friend. Bowtie is all set to head home for his next adventure with his new family and delight them with his majestic manners and enchanting ways.

Tucker knows that there is a loving family out in the great big world that needs him to fill their hearts with the love only his kind eyes and happy wags can provide.

Julia
Julia is a classic starlet ready to showcase her talents. This petite feline lady is well versed in entertainment and ready to leap and pounce around in the hopes of making you smile.

Pets of the Week December 8, 2014

Nima
With a name that means blessings, Nima is faithfully waiting to shower love and loyalty on her new family. Nima is a 4 year old American Staffordshire Terrier mix with a heart as golden as her eyes. She is a real show stopper, with a gleaming hazelnut coat and a wiggly wag that gets everyone around her dancing. Nima was found greeting people at a local gas station, and has taken the job of being the friendliest face around very seriously. She even bestows that same playful gift upon pets and people alike. Always prepared to put her best paw forward, she even sports silly sweaters and coats without even nibbling on them once. House trained to a tee, Nima keeps her kennel clean and cozy, only playing with her toys and not her blankets. Nima is meant for a life indoors preferring to stay with her people as much as she can, but romps around the yard or brisk winter walks are all fun too. Visit Nima today, and be the blessing she’s been waiting for.

Daisy
This four-month-old flowering sweetie is full of furry feline fun. Daisy is an orange and white Tabby kitten whose unique “meow” is crafted to make you take notice of her irresistible cuteness. She’s hoping it will draw you into having a conversation and helping you quickly realize that frolicking with her is the only thing that’s truly important. If you’re wanting to replace humdrum with whimsy, and venture into a life of never-ending entertainment, Daisy is ready to accept the job.
