🐾 Microchipping: The Best Way to Keep Your Pet Safe! 🐾

A microchip is the most reliable and permanent way to ensure your pet can be safely returned to you if they ever get lost. Unlike collars and ID tags, which can break or become worn out over time, a microchip lasts for life.

🔹 Why Choose Microchipping?

~Permanent: The chip stays with your pet forever.
~Privacy: Only a unique ID number is shared, no personal information.
~Quick & Easy: It only takes a few minutes at your vet or through SHAID.

When your pet is found, the microchip company will notify you directly—no need to share your personal details with strangers. 🐶🐱❤️

Want to learn more? Email us at [email protected] or call 902-543-4849 to ask questions or book your appointment. Microchipping is only $50 per pet!

Let's make sure our furry friends always find their way home. 🏡

If you have a quiet space and a gentle heart, Spice just might be the perfect fit for your home!

Come visit Spice at SHAID from Tuesday to Saturday, between 11 am and 3 pm. She’s ready to meet her forever family! 🐱

🌟 Meet Lux – Your Future Best Friend! 🌟

Lux is a 5.5-year-old male Pitbull who’s ready to fill your life with love and joy. At 75 pounds, this affectionate boy is looking for a foster home with the intention to adopt! 💙

Here's what makes Lux special:

🐾 Friendly & Affectionate – He loves children, gets along great with cats, and is a fan of long cuddles on the sofa.

🐾 Active & Adventurous – Lux enjoys car rides, running on the beach, and playing fetch. He's an escape artist, so a secure yard would be a bonus!

🐾 House Trained – While he hasn’t had formal training, he understands commands like sit, lay, and paw. He’s eager to learn more and always ready to show affection!

🐾 Excitable & Loving – He may jump up when meeting new people (he just can't help himself, he's all love!), but with the right guidance, he’ll thrive.

Lux’s ideal home offers both physical and mental stimulation, leaving him feeling content at the end of the day. He's looking for a family who has time to give him plenty of love, cuddles, and fun adventures. Could that be you?

Interested?
To adopt Lux, please fill out an application on our website at shaidanimalshelter.com, and email it to [email protected]. Be sure to include information about your home and why you'd be the perfect fit for this sweet boy. Put Lux in the subject line!

Let’s find Lux his forever home! 🏡🐾
