Her owner brought in on a chain, but even then her exuberant wag was in full swing, as wide and unfettered as her steadfast smile. Chaney’s a surprisingly small one-year-young Boxer beauty, with all the traits that make her breed one of our country’s most popular — she’s destined to be a loyal companion, a tender, fun-loving playmate for your kids and an intelligent, highly trainable member of your household. Chaney loves to run in the yard and would make a great outside dog as long as she gets plenty of affection; she enjoys most other canines, is naturally clean and low maintenance, and her housetraining is coming along just fine. Chaney’s ready to become a glorious family dog, come make her the guardian of your home and heart.

Her name’s Prissy but in truth she’s anything but; more like a sparkling love-buddy with warm emerald eyes and a ruby red heart that glows with affection. Lovely two-year-old Prissy was found stray in Ninety Six, an occupation she’s ill-suited for; she belongs in a safe, loving home, where she’ll happily contribute her mother-lode of tenderness. Hold her in your lap and she’ll lay her sweet cheekbone gratefully on your knee, spinning you a whisper-purr while you stroke her immaculate tri colored fur. Prissy keeps a neat cat box and fits in fine with other cats and dogs. Why go to a jewelry store when you can bring home a gift as precious as Prissy? Go to the Greenwood Animal Shelter to see how richly appreciated her pure devotion can make you feel.

Katherine’s a beautiful Border Collie/mix, and her breed’s thought by many to be the most intelligent of all dogs, eager to learn and able to master hundreds of voice commands. She’s a lovely, healthy one-year-old stray, completely housetrained, cooperative, polite and responsive. She’d be perfect for a fun-loving family who’ll give her the attention she deserves; she’ll run your kids’ legs off before coming in to lie ladylike at your feet. Katherine adores other dogs too. If you want consummate loyalty go meet a joy called Katherine, and begin the friendship journey of a lifetime.

She’s as bendable as a cat made of pipe cleaners, so pliable and easy to please you can arrange her any which-away; but you can tell she’s real because pipe cleaners don’t purr, and gentle Malibu won’t stop. And after she wins the “most pliable” prize, she’ll probably win the “velvety fur” prize too, she’s so warm and soft your fingers will hardly believe themselves, you have to give her young sweet form several pets for the softness to sink in.

When it comes to family manners, Bruno is the bomb! He’s so polite even his freckles are understated — but his full-body wag proclaims his loving persona loudly. Year-and-half-young Bruno was a stray in Greenwood; so how did he learn to come when you call him, return cooperatively to his kennel for a treat, and never, never jump on you? Maybe he was born to be one of your brood — he loves to play in the yard with kids big and small, is easy to groom and terrific on a leash; he’s just about there with his housetraining, too. Bruno likes to stand sentry, and will break his golden silence to let you know someone’s coming. If you’re looking to find a loyal gentle-boy who’s brimming with four-legged fun, come meet our boy Bruno today.

He’s as mellow as a well-muscled man with nothing to prove, and so courtly you’ll be tempted to call him “Thomas” instead of just Tom, or maybe even “Sir Thomas” at that. Tom was found stray in Ninety Six, a clean, handsome and pleasantly social two-year-old passing the time of day with anyone willing to stop for a chat, pet and purr, sometimes throwing in fancy words like “forsooth” purely for entertainment value. He gets along just fine with other male cats, including the one in the adjoining cage — no sense in being impolite to other guys, that’s for those who’re insecure. Nor does he feel the need to prove his masculinity with sloppy litter-box manners; Tom likes things tidy — ship shape. And if litter boxes aren’t your thing he’d be happy to be your outside cat, as long as you make yourself available for a fine, affectionate visit more often than not.

She’s a stray from Saluda but her breed is from the Outback, now one-year-old Sophie’s ready to show you how perfectly an Australian Cattle dog fits in down home instead of down under. Sophie needs her share of attention and will return it a hundred-fold; she’s great with older children, loves to walk on a leash and her housetraining is in progress. Her medium size and “wash and wear” coat make her a snap to groom, even for the show ring her breed is simply wiped down with a damp cloth. If you’re looking for a joyful ally who’ll read your mind and capture your heart, Sophie’s the Aussie-dog for you.

Her eyes include a rare color of the luminous gemstone she’s named for — a distinct blue center oval, with lovely green for the rest. But one-year-old Jade’s determined-to-purr attitude is even more admirable than her blue-orbit eyes — her courage to caress has returned after being left with us by an owner who had to move. Jade’s warm velvet to touch and a perfect small snuggle-size — gentle, affectionate and kind with children and other cats alike. She likes to keep things clean and neat, especially her immaculate white paws and her litter box. Jade is already spayed and ready to go to your secure loving home, where she’ll complete her heart’s bloom.

At just a year and a half Apollo is in Olympic lapdog form, his strong tiny chest holds a big snuggly heart, and his tough-guy persona melts magically away the moment you pick him up. Apollo is a wonderful, gentle playmate for kids. (Cats are fine too; other dogs, not so much.) If you’re looking for a love of god-like proportions in wagging miniature form, come see how divine Apollo really is.

Her favorite move is the Twirly-Purr, when she turns her dark-and-silvery-light-striped head under to show you her tiny chin, all the while vroom-vrooming so hard you think she might bust a gusset. She’s gently exuberant, great with kids, dogs and other cats, and so playful she accidentally tied a toy to her tail and tried to out-run herself. Her box is tidy and she’s too clean-sweet not to touch, come hear her make a loving introduction with her single perfect “mew.”
