**2,024 Days.**
That's how long our 5 longest resident dogs—Juno, Joseph, Luna, Henry, and Major Tom—have waited for a family to call their own.
Despite being spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and with an adoption fee of just $50, they’re still here, waiting. And we can't help but wonder—why?
These dogs are all unique. All full of love. All ready to give their hearts to someone who will choose them. But for reasons we don’t understand, they’ve been passed over time and time again.
Each day they stay here is another day spent longing for a family of their own. They’ve waited long enough.
Juno, Joseph, Luna, Henry, and Major Tom are waiting for you. Will you be the one to give them the happy ending they’ve been dreaming of?
Below you can click on the links to their profiles, share their stories, and help us make their **2,024 days** of waiting come to an end.

Welcome to the Tri-Cities Animal Services' new home at 1311 S. 18th Avenue in Pasco! TCAS mascot Dee Dee is here to show us around. The new facility features significant improvements to keep animals safe and healthy. Those include industrial-size washers and dryers to handle bedding and towels, plus an industrial dishwasher so that staff no longer has to wash and sanitize bowls by hand! Speaking of washing, the new building also has a dedicated dog was station, with a ramp for easy access. New kennels are designed to be easily cleaned, and they are surrounded by special material to cut down on noise. The building is also full of windows to let in natural light! It's not just indoors though: there are also expanded outdoor play areas for dogs to socialize and burn off some energy. You can visit the new facility yourself by attending our grand opening on February 4th, 2025 at 1:00PM. #tricitieswa #tricitieswashington #animals #bassethound #pascowa

🐾Pupdate! Feliz has been adopted!!!🐾
Say hello to Feliz, our beautiful Alaskan Husky, whose *soul-stirring howl* is enough to melt even the hardest of hearts. Yesterday, she filled our shelter halls with her stunning voice, and it’s clear — she’s ready for her forever home, where she can sing her heart out every day.
Her adoption fee is just *$50*, and she’s ready to go home today! Feliz is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. She’s all set to fill your life with love, loyalty, and, of course, *her sweet serenades*.
If you’re ready to welcome this *howling heartthrob* into your home, come meet her! No appointment needed to meet our adoptable dogs (or cats). We’re open Tuesday-Saturday, 10 am - 5 pm at 1312 S 18th Avenue, Pasco, WA.
*A quick reminder*—if you have other dogs, a meet and greet is required prior to adoption, just to make sure everyone hits it off! 💙
Let’s turn her heartache into a *happily ever after*. Bring her home today and let the howls of happiness begin! 🐾

🐾 Meet Chalet, an adorable almost 2-year-old German Shepherd mix who’s been calling the shelter home since July 30th 2024, and she’s more than ready to find her forever family! 🏡
This fun-loving, smart, and super food-motivated girl is eager to please and will absolutely steal your heart with her signature “paws up” move! 🙌
Tomorrow, Chalet will be the star of News Radio 610 KONA’s Pet of the Week segment! 🎙️ Tune in just after 8:30am to hear more about this sweet girl from Mike, A.J., and Monica. You can listen live on the radio or stream online via KONA’s website. Be sure to check out exclusive photos from her photo shoot in her web article on the KONA website and social media pages too! 📸
We made this video to show you that Chalet has the BEST out-of-kennel presence—because let’s be honest, her kennel demeanor doesn’t show her best traits! 🐾 In her kennel, Chalet can be a little reactive to strangers and might come off as a bit intimidating, but once she’s outside, her sweet, loving side totally shines through. This is a reminder to all: don’t judge a dog by their behavior in the kennel. Sometimes they just need a little space to show their true personalities, and Chalet is the perfect example! She's a playful, affectionate girl who’s ready to snuggle up with her new family.
So, come meet her outside of her kennel, and get ready to fall in love!
Chalet’s adoption fee is only $50, and she’s ready to go home today! 💕 She’s smart, playful, and eager to find a family that will give her all the love she deserves. Don’t wait—come meet Chalet at the shelter, give us a call, or visit our website to learn more about her!
Let’s get Chalet into her new home—she’s the cutest, and she’s waiting for YOU! 🐕❤️

Meet Chalet: The Puppy Who Loves to Stand Tall! 🐾✨
Chalet may have a big bark in her kennel, but outside of it, she’s a sweet, playful, and loving girl! At just over a year old, Chalet is still very much a puppy, full of energy and fun, and she’s been waiting since 7/30/24 to find her forever home.
She’s got a hilarious quirk—she loves to stand on her hind legs and stretch her front paws straight up in the air! 😄 It’s her favorite move, and it’ll definitely put a smile on your face!
Chalet would do best as the only pet in her home. She’s not a fan of other animals, so she needs a home where she can be the center of attention. She’s a loyal companion looking for an experienced owner who can provide structure and love.
Can you help Chalet find her forever family before the holidays? 🎄
Her adoption fee is only $50, and she’s spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.
You can stop by anytime during business hours Tuesday - Saturday from 10am to 5pm to meet her without an appointment!
We’re located at 1312 S 18th Avenue in Pasco WA 99301
If you have any questions please call 509-545-3740
Share her story, and let’s get Chalet the home she deserves!

"Why Am I Still Waiting?" – Joe’s Story
Hi, I’m Joseph, but my friends here at the shelter call me Joe. I’ve been waiting for my forever home for a long time, and honestly, I don’t think anyone understands why I’m still here.
I was first picked up by Animal Control in September 2023 and brought to the shelter. After spending some time here, I was adopted in December 2023. But just a couple of months later, I was found roaming the streets with no owner in sight. My new family never came back for me. In April 2024, I got a second chance and was adopted again—but that didn’t last either. The family I thought would be mine returned me, and now, in September 2024, I was adopted a third time… but guess what? That didn’t work out either.
So here I am, still waiting, still hoping for the home I deserve.
I’m 80 pounds of pure love and muscle, and I need someone strong enough to keep up with me.
But don’t let my size fool you—I’m gentle and kind with the right person. I’ve got a heart full of loyalty and so much love to give.
Toys? They're my life. Seriously, if there’s a toy around, you’ll see me light up. And my zoomies in the play yard? I’m fast, I’m fun, and I love to run! 🏃♂️💨
I do well with calm, submissive female dogs my size, but I’m not a fan of male dogs or smaller dogs. And cats? Well... we just don’t get along.
I’m a great adventure buddy, whether it’s long walks, hikes, or just hanging out playing in the yard. I’m strong, I’m playful, and I’ll always have your back.
All I need is someone who sees me for who I truly am: a loyal, loving companion ready for a home of my own.
So, what do you say? Send me on my way, and I’ll make it worth your while. ❤️
If you’re interested in learning more about Joseph please stop by anytime during business hours Tuesday - Saturday from 10am to 5pm! We’re located at 1312 S 18th Avenue in Pasco, WA 99301. Also feel free to call 509-545-3740 with an
