Meet Glenda! Estimated to be 5 years old, this medium sized lab mix has tons of love to give! Glenda has made it clear to us that she is in search of a quiet home as loud noises spook her. She is also looking for a home with NO other dogs. Glenda does seem to do well with kitties and calm kiddos though! If you think your home may be a good fit for Glenda, please fill out a dog adopter survey, linked below!

💥BOGO💥💥BOGO💥💥BOGO💥
Don't miss out on this adopt one, get one get one promotion!!!
TWO best friends for the price of one! Black/black & white cats ONLY! With over half of our cat population here at the HSYC being black or black & white cats, they need a little help finding their forever homes! Now until August 31st!
Fun Fact: Black is the most dominant gene coat color in cats. So while black cats have a harder time finding homes, there are also more black cats than any other coat color making it even more important to consider adopting a black cat!

Hey guys, Bradley here! I just wanted to pop in and let you fine folks know that the humans here at the shelter are nearly out of regular garbage bags! They had me pose for this photo in hopes that my cute self will get a little more attention. If you’d like to help my friends out, please drop off or send them some 13 gallon (regular kitchen) garbage bags. Thanks in advance!

Enrichment is SO important for our doggos here at the shelter!!! So how do we accomplish that? All sorts of things! We try to mix it up for our canine friends. EVERY dog gets walked at least once every day by some of our lovely volunteers, we use slow feeders/food puzzles, volunteers who visit and read to dogs, and playgroups like the one pictured, among other things! Pictured are the three amigos: Bradley, Babs, and Dodge, all available for adoption!

Oh, sweet Bradley. This is a special guy searching for a special home. He has severe separation anxiety, so we are in search of a home where someone will always be with him. He can take a second to get used to new people, but once he is comfortable he will be your new best friend! As of late, Bradley has been involved in several different playgroups and has met multiple other dogs successfully! He would have to meet any new canine companions here at the shelter. We are hopeful that going into a home with another dog may help ease his transition, and help with his anxiety! If you are interested in learning more about Bradley please give the shelter a call!

Who doesn’t love a little pitty?! Our guy Dodge is anxiously awaiting his forever home. This little man loves to play all day long! Estimated to be around 1, he does still have tons of puppy energy and could use some help with his manners. Dodge is guaranteed to keep you entertained for days, and is definitely a people person!

FRIENDS!
We have recently become aware of shared posted being removed. For instance, one of our staff members tried to share Zander’s post to their personal page. The post was removed for going against guidelines/ rules. However, we can stop this. We ask that if this happens to you, to please take one minute of your time to submit a report (it will prompt you) stating it doesn’t break the rules and you’re sharing to spread awareness. This will help the AI algorithm learn that we aren’t sharing for likes, but to get these loving pets into forever homes.
Thank you!! 😊

NEXT SUNDAY!

Do you have bones to chew on, a soft bed, and a pocket pitty shaped hole in your heart? Zander may be the one for you! This Boston terrier/pit bull mix loves his bones and will bring one to you every morning! Zander has made it clear to us that he needs to be the only dog in the home- he prefers to be the center of attention. He does seem to do okay with kiddos, but he would have to meet any new family members here at the shelter! Interested? Please fill out a dog adopter survey, linked below!
