UPDATE: ADOPTED!!! ❤️😸

Cabbage is available for adoption again!
His previous adopter felt as if the environment had too much activity & he would benefit more in a quiet home.
Cabbage is 16 months old, up to date on all vaccines/prevention, and neutered. He is very sweet, loves to be cuddled & very adventurous but at times he can become anxious or overwhelmed. Time & patience from the right family is all Cabbage wants/needs because he is 100% the best boy 😸❣️
If you are interested in adopting or want more information on this handsome boy you can call our clinic at business hours!

🎼 B-I-N-G-O, and Bingo was his name-o! 🐶
This handsome guy is still available for adoption. He is 10 months old, 45lbs, neutered, up to date on vaccines & prevention! Bingo was hit by a car and has had surgery to repair his diaphragm, his broken hip and is now at the end of his recovery for a broken pelvis. We believe he is hound/boxer mix and should grow to be a medium to large size. Bingo is currently being fostered & has shared these pictures with us❤️
He does well with cats, kennel trained, knows how to sit shake & lay down, & 100% a lover boy! 🥰
If you are interested or would like more information on Bingo, you can call our clinic at business hours (337-479-1199) 📞

He loves to play with toys, back scratches, he is very talkative, and he spends most of his time climbing the cat shelves in our adoption room (he is a very adventurous fella)
He may look like a tough kitty, but he can be very sensitive & would need a home with lots of patience with time to adjust. 💕
