We have had a good week with large dog adoptions. But this girl here made us all happy. Faith is such a sweet, sweet girl. Just look at that face. Faith is 8 years old. We were just so excited when Janice Burch chose Faith. Janice lost her sweet girl Lady, a 14 year old Lab recently to heart problems. We can never replace a beloved dog or cat we lose but we sure can fill that empty spot in our hearts by adopting another dog or cat in need of a loving family. What a great new mom Faith has. They will make many happy memories together. Faith will be an inside dog and her new mom is home all the time. Let the spoiling begin! Thank you so much Janice for choosing Faith.

Please remember to have identification on your pets and that the information is up-to-date! Bring your pets inside and make sure they can not escape. We all know our pets can have very high anxiety when dealing with bad weather so let's make sure we keep them safe!

If you wouldn't want to be in a cell neither will your pets! Per our city ordinances all pets (cats and dogs) are to be leashed, in a fenced area, or on a lead. The number of at large dogs are rising. Be a good pet parent and pay attention to where your babies are at all times!!
