Merry Christmas from Castle!
Former ARC pup Castle wants to wish you and your family a happy belated holidays! ❤️ Here’s what his mama has to say:
“Merry Christmas from our family to yours! This year feels extra special as we celebrate Castle's first Christmas with us after his adoption in July. Castle has truly embraced his new life, full of love, cuddles, and lots of spoiling! He's learned the joy of tearing into presents (with a little help from his big brother, Banner) and is living his best life surrounded by treats, toys, and endless belly rubs. Watching Castle thrive in his forever home has been the greatest gift of all. Wishing you a holiday season as joyful as Castle's wagging tail!”
The facts are the facts. 😉

Hips Don't Lie
Ok, but seriously... how is everyone getting their dogs to remain so calm and shake their little booty at the appropriate times while getting these Hips Don't Lie videos?! 🤣
Our "Shakira" (AKA - Freddy) has found his furever family since we filmed this, but there are plenty of other pups waiting to shimmy their way into your heart and home. ❤️ Visit mcanimals.org/adoptions to see who's available and stop by the shelter weekdays, 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. or Saturdays, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.
With so many toys to choose from, what's a good boy like Graham to do?! 🧸
Graham is a 2-year-old, 62 lb. Pit Bull Terrier mix looking for his furever home... preferably one with lots of toys to play with. 😋 This fun-loving, energetic guy would be the perfect companion for a game of fetch, hikes, and all sorts of outdoor adventures.

2024 Holiday Pet Safety - Tree Tips
The holidays are upon us! 🎁 Keep your pets safe among all the festive fun with these quick tips for tree safety:
- Anchor Your Tree: Securing your tree prevents curious canines and cats from accidentally toppling it over during playtime. 🎄
- Watch the Water: If you have a live tree requiring water 💧 keep an eye on the reservoir. Bacteria can quickly grow and harmful chemicals can leach into the water, making your pet sick if they drink it. Consider covering the water basin with a tree skirt or towel if pets are persistent.
Bon AppéTREAT, doggies! 😁🥧
Although very similar, Oreo and Nora are not the same pup! 😂🖤🤍
Both affectionate, young pittie mixes, these girls are looking for their furever homes. They walk well on leash, adore making new friends, and LOVE treats. While Oreo enjoys a good adventure, Nora has a tendency to be more of a homebody.
Think one of them could be the perfect fit for you? Stop in to meet Oreo, Nora and the rest of our adoptable dogs today!
Powdered Sugar Dogs
During Adopt-a-Senior Pet Month, let us not forget about these powdered sugar faced babies. 🥹 Hoot, Honey Badger, Abby & Flo are all just patiently waiting to find their furever homes. If you've got space in your heart and home for a sweet senior, stop by the ARC and meet them! ❤️
We're open for adoptions tomorrow, 10 AM - 6 PM and then closed Thursday and Friday with the exception of lost pet searches on Friday, 11 AM - 1 PM. To see all available dogs, visit https://24petconnect.com/MCOHAdopt.
Leif - A077882
PUPDATE: Adopted!
Leif (on the left) has been patiently waiting for his perfect people to come and take him home since late May. A friendly and outgoing guy, he hasn't met a dog he doesn't like here at the shelter. We've introduced him to several furry friends now, and each time, he runs right over, wiggly and ready to play! 😋
If you have a pup at home and are looking for the perfect playmate, stop by the shelter and ask about Leif! We'd love to set up a meet & greet to help this good boy find his furever home. ❤️
