A look back at some of the adoptions that have happened this past week. We are so grateful to each and every person that helps share our posts, to those that share by word of mouth, and to those that come in person to our shelter to check out the animals. Every single way helps shorten the stay of these wonderful furry creatures at the shelter. Also, a great big thank you to the forever adopters of our alumni. ๐Ÿ’—Enjoy these happy tail pictures.

If youโ€™ve been thinking about adopting, nowโ€™s the perfect time to meet your new best friend!

Name: Shane
Age: 9 (but likeโ€ฆa very distinguished 9)
Status: Single and ready to mingle
Hobbies: Leisurely strolls, light playtime, and pretending Iโ€™m not food-obsessed even though I am.
Personality: Mellow, sweet, and delightfully easygoing. Basically the dog version of โ€œchill guy who still knows how to have fun.โ€

What Iโ€™m looking for:
Someone who enjoys slow walks, appreciates my excellent leash manners, and doesnโ€™t judge me for sprinting to the treat jar like itโ€™s my full-time job. Bonus points if you laugh at my jokes. Iโ€™m adorable, not funny, but I try.

Swipe right if youโ€™re into older men with puppy energy. ๐Ÿ’›
