🐾💙 Four More Texas Boys Have Arrived! 💙🐾

Meet our newest arrivals — a charming bunch of 4-month-old “Chippets” (that’s Chihuahua + Whippet, or so we’ve been told 😉).

These little guys made the long trip from Texas and are settling in beautifully. They’ll stay on the smaller side when full grown, making them perfect companions for all kinds of homes!

Smart, affectionate, and playful, they’re already proving to be quick studies — mastering new experiences with confidence and enthusiasm. 🌟

If you’re looking for a pint-sized best friend with a big heart, come meet these sweet Texas boys!

✨ To Meet these pups, you must have an approved application on file.

🎓🐾 Foster Graduates Alert! 🐾🎓

Four more handsome young gentlemen have officially graduated from foster care, where they received advanced “Paws-On Training in the Art of House Kittenry!” 🏠✨

These 10-week-old male kittens have come such a long way — from terrified little strays rescued by a kind Good Samaritan, to confident, curious students of indoor life. They’re still learning, so they’ll do best with patient, understanding adopters who can help them continue to blossom. 💕

To meet these fellas you’ll need to have an approved adoption application on file.

📝 Apply today at ➡️ https://lrhs.net/adopt-a-pet/online-adoption-application-2/

And while you’re there, don’t forget to check out our Available Pets section — we’ve added four lovely older male kittens (already neutered and ready to go home!).

UPDATE: Ambrosius has found his furrever home!

🐾 Puppy Alert! 🐾

We have three adorable 10-week-old male bitty mix-breed puppies ready to find their forever homes! 💙

Their mom is a sweet Cairn Terrier, and dad’s identity is a bit of a mystery — our best guesses include maybe a little Corgi or Jack Russell Terrier in the mix! Whatever the combo, these boys are pure charm.

They came to us all the way from Texas on transport, and they’re petsonalities are as unique as their tail lengths — one with a full tail, one with a half tail, and one with no tail at all!

All three are small, spunky, and full of personality. They’ve been vet-checked, started on vaccines, and are now ready to meet their match.

✨ To Meet these boys, you must have an approved application on file.

🎃 Halloween Safety Tips for Your Dog 🐾
Trick-or-Treat night can be full of fun for the family, but for many dogs, it can be a little spooky in all the wrong ways. From constant doorbell rings to tempting treats, Halloween can bring plenty of stress (and hazards) for our four-legged friends.

Here are a few ways to help your pup stay safe and happy this Halloween:
🐕 Keep candy out of reach.
Chocolate is toxic to dogs, and even candy wrappers can be dangerous if eaten. Make sure your stash stays safely tucked away!

🏡 Know your dog’s comfort level.
If your pup gets anxious when the doorbell rings, skip the chaos, set up a candy bowl at the end of your driveway or porch instead.

🔖 Check those ID tags.
With doors opening and closing all evening, it’s easy for an excited dog to slip out. Make sure their tags are secure and up to date.

👩‍👧‍👦 Assign roles.
Have one person handle candy duty and another keep an eye on your dog. This helps ensure everyone, human and canine, stays calm and safe.

🚪 Use crates and gates.
It’s perfectly okay to give your dog a quiet space away from the door. This can prevent stress and keep trick-or-treaters safe, too.

🧠 Offer enrichment.
Keep your dog busy and relaxed with a frozen Kong, Lick Mat, or puzzle toy during the festivities.

🚶 Plan walks wisely.
Avoid busy streets, loud crowds, and spooky decorations. A calm walk before trick-or-treating, or later in the evening, helps your dog decompress.

👻 Skip the scares.
Haunted houses, flashing lights, and running children can be overwhelming. When in doubt, keep Halloween fun for your dog by keeping it simple and low-stress.

HAVE YOU SEEN ME?

Milo has been missing since about October 26th from the Apache Road, near the Winsock Airport in Center Ossipee NH. Milo is a 6 almost 7 year old male neutered cat who was not wearing a collar at the time of his disappearance. He is not microchipped. He is a large guy, about 8-10 pounds and he may have some miniscule bald spots on his shoulder from some cat scuffles. If anyone has seen Milo or know where he may be, please give us a call at (603-539-1077) Thank you!
