Looking for a Cabana boy? Or maybe someone to hang out with poolside? Then Stew's your man. Stew is such a sweet guy, always quick to offer a smile and a tail wag. He recently got to ride out the recent storm with one of our fabulous volunteers and they were able to give us some great information about him. Stew was well behaved, even while being left alone in the home. He knows the sit command, takes treats gently and will offer his paw to shake. He loves having a yard to call his own (he can pull on a leash) and loves to roll in the grass and lay out in the sun. And, yes, he LOVES the water! Once inside, Stew quickly learned to head to the kitchen for a treat after his potty breaks and then he's content to snuggle up with his human. Stew is 9 years old and weighs 73 pounds, is neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested and vaccinated. Come meet him at Citrus County Animal Services, 4030 S. Airport Rd., Inverness, FL.

Goody recently spent time in a foster home. They report that she is perfectly house trained and knows to scratch at the door to go out. They describe her as easy-going and calm. She took her food gently and always waited her turn patiently. She is crate trained but showed no separation anxiety when left alone. She comes when called and walks nicely on a leash. She was great with both of their dogs both large and small. She was fine with the older, calm cat but the younger cat darting around and the chickens garnered too much attention from her. She is estimated to be 2 years old and weighs 51 pounds. All adoptable dogs at CCAS are spayed/neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested, and vaccinated. Come meet Goody at Citrus County Animal Services, 4030 S. Airport Rd., Inverness, FL. ID # 56960541.

Meet Ben, a gentle boy with a heart full of love! This sweet, calm boy thrives on quality time with his people and is happiest by your side. Recently, Ben spent time in a foster home, where he showed off his excellent house manners—he’s fully house-trained, low-energy, and enjoys short, leisurely walks. Ben’s affectionate side shines through with his favorite people, who are often rewarded with his gentle kisses. He is not a fan of the shenanigans of young, energetic dogs but may appreciate the companionship of a peaceful friend. We always recommend a guided introduction at animal services, when possible. Ben is neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested, and fully vaccinated. At 87 pounds, he’s listed in the 6-10-year age category, making him the perfect mellow companion for a loving home. Come meet this sweetheart at Citrus County Animal Services, 4030 S. Airport Road, Inverness, FL 34450. ID # 57071726.

UPDATE: ADOPTED!
Marbell is super friendly and lovable. She would rather spend time with people than play with toys. She is affectionate and attentive and enjoyed the children in a foster home.

If you keep a crate out for her she will willingly go in to sleep. She also enjoys sleeping with her person, if allowed. She is housebroken and has nice manners. She is estimated to be 2 years old listed and weighs 65 pounds. In the foster home she reportedly chased the outdoor cats so she may be best in a non-cat home.

This is an X-ray of a dog’s bent front leg. See that tiny white spec? That’s a microchip! It has migrated down the leg....far from where it was inserted, between the dog’s shoulders. This is actually quite common.....

When lost pets are scanned, the entire body SHOULD be scanned to catch any that have migrated. But, as an owner, IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY AT THEIR YEARLY VET EXAM, to ask for a quick scan to make sure that: (1) the chip is still working, (2) the location of the chip is good, and (3) that the chip info is correct.

Remember microchips save lives and reunite families with their pet.... just have it checked regularly!
