🎶 Oh. My. Gosh. Becky. Look at those puppies. 🎶

They look like… like… some of those sled dog ones.
You know—the ones that howl dramatically at the moon for no reason at all. 😩
Ugh. They’re like... so fluffy. And loud. And adorable.
Like, you just know they’re gonna be 50% legs and 100% chaos by next week.

We’ve got a whole pack of Shepherd/Husky pups right now and whew—they can EAT.

Like, for real. We blink and the kibble’s gone.

So if you’ve got some extra puppy food lying around (or wanna be a hero and grab a bag or two), we’d love the help! 💛

This afternoon, we had the opportunity to serve alongside Grace Bridge at Sam Pack's Five Star Ford—packing food boxes for families in need right here in our community. 💛 It was a small act with a big impact, and we’re so grateful to be part of something that brings hope and help to our neighbors.

Thank you to everyone who showed up to lend a hand—and thank you, Grace Bridge, for all that you do! 🙌

🚨🐾 THIS IS NOT A DRILL… IT’S A SPILL! 🐾🚨

Our "cleaning crew" showed up today full of enthusiasm… but, uh, let’s just say they're better at spreading fur than scrubbing floors. 🐶🧽

We’re low on bleach and other cleaning supplies, and unless you're into the scent of "Eau de Wet Dog & Regret," we need your help!

🧴 Bleach us, please—we’re in a real ruff spot!
🧼 Mop our spirits back up!
🐾 Donate now and save a broom from becoming a chew toy.

Donations of unscented bleach are especially needed, and if you want to go the extra mile, check out our Amazon Wishlist: https://a.co/aw5UxFP 🛒

Every donation helps us keep our shelter clean, our animals healthy, and our staff just a little less covered in paw prints and questionable smudges. 🐾💛

**Rain or shine, y’all show up—and we love you for it!**

Big thanks to everyone who braved the weather and rolled through our **Drive-Thru Vaccination Clinic** after *Paws on the Square* got rained out. Mother Nature may have canceled the party, but your pets still got their shots, and we got to see plenty of wagging tails and curious noses sticking out of car windows.

From backseat barkers to passenger seat purr machines—you and your pets were the real MVPs of the day.

We’re so grateful for your support, your patience, and your pets' bravery (even the dramatic ones—we saw you).

Thanks for rolling by today!!

Meet Fruit Stripe! 🍉🍊🍋

This little lovebird is bursting with personality and looking for a forever home! Found as a stray with no owner coming forward, Fruit Stripe is now ready to settle down with someone who appreciates a good serenade—because this bird loves to sing! If there were a bird version of The Voice, Fruit Stripe would have all the judges turning their chairs.

We’re not sure if Fruit Stripe is a boy or a girl, but we are sure they’ve got big main character energy. Lovebirds are social, sassy, and love a good chat, so they’d do best with someone who enjoys a feathery sidekick with a lot to say.

If you're looking for a tiny, chirpy roommate who will fill your home with music and mischief, Fruit Stripe is your bird! 🐦🎶✨

Fruit Stripe is available for adoption now! Adoption fee is $10. Does not come with a cage.

🐱 Meet Pet-Me-Not – The Queen of Mixed Signals! 👑✨

Pet-Me-Not is a gorgeous Domestic Medium Hair who LOVES attention... on her terms. She’ll roll, rub, and flirt like she’s begging for pets—then act personally offended if you actually try. (Classic cat move, right?)

She’s not a total tough cookie, though—you can pick her up, and she’ll tolerate it like the dignified feline she is. But coming up for cuddles? Nah, that’s not really her vibe (yet!).

Pet-Me-Not is looking for a patient, cat-savvy home that appreciates her independent spirit. Think of her as an interactive art piece—beautiful to admire, fun to watch, but strictly “look, don’t touch” (for now!).

If you’re cool with earning affection on a slow-burn basis, Pet-Me-Not might just be your perfect feline enigma! 🖤🐾

🐶 Meet Bilbo Beggins – Your Adventure Buddy Awaits! 🌍✨

Bilbo Beggins has been on quite the journey, but he’s still searching for his forever home—one where he can finally settle in and start his next big adventure! This handsome black & brown hound mix has been to plenty of events, charming everyone he meets, yet somehow, he’s still waiting for his special person.

🧭 What makes Bilbo the ultimate quest companion?
✅ Great with other dogs & kids – A true fellowship builder!
✅ Super smart & eager to learn – He picks up new skills faster than a Hobbit at second breakfast.
✅ Loyal, fun-loving, and full of houndy charm – He’s got the nose for adventure and the heart for home.

Bilbo has spent too much time growing up in the shelter—he’s ready for his epic journey to a forever family! Will you be the one to take him there? 🏡🐾

He is an MVP!! His adoption fee has been waived!

🐶🤠 Moo Wrangler is BACK and ready to GIDDY UP into her forever home! 🤠🐶

This rootin’-tootin’ sweetheart had a blast in foster, but the resident cats were not amused by her rodeo-style play. (Turns out, they prefer sunbathing over square dancing. Who knew?!) So, Moo is looking for a feline-free home where she can be her playful, lovable self!

She’s got:
✅ Potty training mastered – No tumbleweeds rollin’ through this house!
✅ A+ leash skills – She struts like she owns the place.
✅ Great manners – Loves kids and dog pals (as long as they aren’t rowdier than a rodeo on Saturday night).

Moo Wrangler is all about belly rubs, leisurely strolls, and being the best little sidekick you ever did see. So saddle up and come meet this cowgirl—she’s ready to ride off into the sunset with you! 🌅🐾

Binx – Your New, Slightly Hostile Home Decor Piece 😼✨

Do you love the idea of a cat but not all that “petting” and “cuddling” nonsense? Do you long for a majestic feline presence in your home—one that will grace you with his existence but not your lap? Then congratulations! You may be worthy of Binx, the 18-month-old tabby with the attitude of a grumpy old man who just wants to be left alone with his newspaper.

Binx is not here for your affection. He will take exactly zero of your snuggles, but he will take your admiration from a respectful distance. Think of him as a living, breathing, occasionally swatting piece of modern art. He enjoys sitting in the perfect sunbeam, casting judgmental glares, and reminding you—sometimes with claws—that personal space is a two-way street.

He has lived with other cats and tolerated their presence, but if they get too close? BAP. If you get too close? DOUBLE BAP. He’s not aggressive, per se—just aggressively not interested in being touched.

So, if you’re in need of a cat who will decorate your home, vibe from a distance, and occasionally keep you humble, Binx is your guy. Adopt him today—just, you know… keep your hands to yourself. 😹

His adoption fee has been waived!
