Please don’t let Henry’s behavior in his kennel scare you off, he just needs a safe space to land before showing his true personality ❤️

If you have no other pets in the home, Henry would love to meet you!

37 Forever Homes Found; Endless More to Come!

What an incredible week of adoptions. Thanks to our community, 37 animals officially found their way home and we could not be more grateful for every adopter who chose to open their heart and home. Seeing this many happy endings in just one week is exactly how we love to start the year.

Cats adopted last week: Nairobi, Tuna, Stevie, Celeste, Tom, Jerry, Zesty, Barn Cat Mayo, Barn Cat Guster, Barn Cat Stanley, Clementine, Alaska, Fudge, Tinsel, Sardine, Salmon, Zena, Vega, Trout, Cutie, Pretzel, and Nolan.

Dogs adopted last week: Athena, Angus, Reggie, Raven, Crash, Ike, Comet, ButterBean, Felix, Royce, Cupid, Vixen, Felicity, Eli, and Lou.

To every adopter, volunteer, foster, and supporter who helped make these moments possible, thank you for being part of the reason these animals get their fresh start.

Oh, and just for fun, we snuck ButterBean’s Hinge dating profile into this post and it must have worked because she got adopted right after it went up. Coincidence? We think not.

Our dogs are officially looking for love, and some of them have turned to Hinge to help find their perfect match. When you come into the shelter, keep an eye out for the other pups who have put their best profiles forward in hopes of swiping their way into a forever home. Who knows, your perfect match might be waiting for you. 💕🐾

Edit 1/12: ButterBean was returned to us. No one’s fault, just didn’t work out. We’ll evaluate before she’ll be adoptable again.

Happy Tail Alert: Rey 🐾💙

Two years ago, Rey walked out our doors and into the life she was always meant to live. Since then, she has been clearly thriving — road trips, long walks, dog park adventures, and a whole lot of love. Seeing former shelter dogs living their best lives will never get old, and Rey is the perfect example of what adoption can do.

Here’s what Rey’s adopter had to say about finding her:

“I came across Rey’s profile on the adoptable dogs page, and the look in her eyes made me want to meet her immediately. I came right down to the shelter and asked to take her out for a walk, and that was it. I came back to adopt her the next day.

Rey made herself right at home the second she arrived. She and I have such a special bond, and she follows me everywhere, the enthusiastic clicking of her nails behind me all around the house. We go everywhere together, road trips when I have to travel, car rides when weather permits, the many walks she so enjoys. When I have to leave her home, she greets me at the door with her favorite toys and the most enthusiastic welcome every time.

She is the sweetest, funniest girl. Whether making a game out of stealing my socks, or playing tug of war with her goat man toys, she has such lovable personality. She very much enjoys going to the dog park, although she doesn’t seem to quite understand how to play with other dogs. Running free and playing with her ball is her favorite thing to do there.

I am so fortunate to have found Rey, and have had her choose me. I will be forever grateful to Longmont Humane Society for giving dogs the chance at a life they deserve!”

Now for the fun part — Rey is being entered into a Modern Dog magazine cover contest, and you can help cheer her on by voting for her at the link below! If Rey wins, there will be a cash prize that is shared with us here at LHS. We are so grateful to have been part of Rey’s journey and beyond thankful to her adopter for paying that love forward.

That last picture makes me giggle every time 🤭

Gary the 11-year-old superstar went on an expawdition and absolutely stole hearts all over town. 💙🐾

Gary spent his day soaking up some holiday fun with our amazing volunteers, starting with a stroll through the Flower Bin where he happily explored all the sights and smells. From there, he enjoyed a peaceful walk at Golden Ponds, prancing along with curiosity and confidence, before wrapping things up with a little window shopping on Main Street. For a seasoned senior, Gary showed off just how much zest for life he still has.

Our volunteer couldn’t stop raving about how friendly and social he was. Gary wanted to say hello to everyone he met and every single person thought he was just as cute as can be. One especially standout moment was how calmly he handled other dogs. Even when walking past a car with barking dogs inside, Gary stayed relaxed, ignored the noise, and kept moving right along.

Gary loved being out of the shelter, loved spending time with people, and showed us exactly why he is such a wonderful adoption candidate. He is curious, social, polite on walks, and still so eager to enjoy life. If you are looking for a sweet, well mannered senior who will happily join you for outings and adventures, Gary might just be your perfect match.

Who’s ready to give this goodest boy his forever home? 🐶💙
