Be a hero! Adopt a long-term shelter dog or cat:
HONEY Heeler Mix. She's a nice dog, just overlooked. Friendly, athletic, likes people, leash trained. /
BARON Lab (& Rottie?). Good looking. Shy; needs someone understanding, who'll give him "space" to feel free but secure. /
ROCKY Catahoula. Outgoing “Energizer Bunny” – keeps going and happy regardless. /
FLOWER (tabby), OREO (tuxedo) /
Also:
CHARRO Sweet semi-senior basset mix. Hasn't been with us that long, but needs a comfortable home. /
And:
PUPPIES! Must be spayed or neutered before release, but approved applicants may complete a contract and pay the fee to reserve a pup.
