Big thanks to Cathi Harley for her generous donation of Churu to the shelter!
Cathi often calls the shelter to see what is needed at the time--this week, we had some spicy kitties we were trying to win over, and there is one tool that usually does the trick: CHURU!
Cathi has donated so much to the shelter over the years: an incubator for neonatal kittens, leashes for adopted dogs, pill pockets for easy medicating, and so much more!
Thank you, Cathi, and all of the generous donors who help us help them!
We are so grateful for the recent help with the overflow of dogs - we know the dogs have gotten a lot of attention lately, and our feline guests would like to kindly remind you that they are looking for homes, too!
You can check out our adoptable cats at www.jocoshelter.com/adoptions or come by for a visit. We have several great cats seeking forever homes!

Franklin's Day Out
Franklin's Day Out!
Our volunteers really enjoyed their time with Franklin. They took him for pupcup at Human Bean and enjoyed a nice walk, where Franklin enjoyed sniffing around and following his nose. When at their house, Franklin played with his squeaky toy and spent time relaxing on their couch. According to our volunteer, when laying down Frankling HAD to be touching them. Who wouldn't want to snuggle that cute face and big ears?

Brooke's Day Out
Brooke's Day Out!
**Brooke's adoption fee is sponsored!**
Brooke had a busy day with our volunteers. They went to Rogue Roasters, went on a walk, stopped to get gas, and even stopped to get an oil change. Brooke was so polite and did well with all the commotion going on around her. She fell asleep in their back seat during the oil change! Brooke is a sweet dog and took awhile to lay down and relax but once she did, she was VERY happy. While Brooke sometimes needs extra time meeting men, as you can tell with her cuddles with Johnny, she makes fast friends.

November Volunteer of the Month!
We have some amazing volunteers and we wanted to show them how much we appreciate everything they do for the animals and us!
This month we chose Crystal!
Crystal started volunteering a few months ago. Her hard work hasn't gone unnoticed. Crystal was even seen cleaning places that not everyone would think of, like doorknobs! She also helps out with cleaning cat kennels. No matter what she is here doing, Crystal makes sure she gives extra love to kitties. She didn't want to be featured (camera-shy!) but Bell was looking for looking for pets and Crystal obliged.
Thank you for being amazing! You have no idea how much we all appreciate everything you do!

Selassie's Day Out
Selassie's day out!
"Selassie really wanted to go running, so I ran with him all over the trails and explored." Selassie really enjoyed his time at Tom Pearce park with our volunteer after they went to the tire shop where he sat quietly and behaved like the bestest boy! Our volunteer said Selassie is super friendly and kept putting his paw on her for love and even stood up to put his front legs on her arms so he could look into her eyes. He was very gentle and sweet.

Lucy's Day Out
Lucy's day out!
Lucy explored Cathedral Hills and hiked about 1.5 miles! She did amazing! Our volunteers said she loved being outside and never wanted to stop to take breaks. No matter if she was out on the trail or in their yard, Lucy enjoyed rolling in the grass. She was able to decompress on their couch for a bit and play with her toy — the toy she had to take with her. She took it out of the toy bin before leaving with our volunteers. Lucy loves her toys!

Hagrid's Day Out
HAGRID'S DAY OUT!
Hagrid was able to get of the shelter for a while and spend some of his day at the All Sports Park exploring the trails. Hagrid did very well when he came across other dogs on the trail. He sat and waited like a good boy with our volunteer as the other dogs passed by. Hagrid did not seem to mind about the ducks that he found while at the park. He even met a cat while out and about and did very well! They were friendly with each other and didn't mind each others' company. Hagrid and our volunteer also spent some time at Pennington Farms. He was very well behaved! So of course, before coming back to the shelter, Hagrid was able to enjoy a puppuccino!

Lovey spent the day with our volunteers at Whitehorse County Park exploring the trails and hanging out by the river. She really enjoyed digging in the sand. Lovey also enjoyed cuddle time a lot!

Lovey did amazing with our volunteer's 5 year old! Lovey enjoyed cuddles and him singing songs to her. They ended the day with a puppuccino!
