🐾 PUPDATE! 🐾
After being a shelter dog for almost a month Prince found his happily ever after! And here is what his mom has to say about him...
"Prince has undergone a significant transformation since I adopted him from the shelter, as evident from the first photo taken on the day he arrived home. He has grown considerably and is full of energy, yet he exhibits good behavior. Although he remains somewhat wary of cats, he is gradually warming up to my kitten, Voodoo. Prince thoroughly enjoys playing tug of war and chasing tennis balls. It’s good to have him back home with me, his training is going well, and he enjoys all the backyard time "

🐾 PUPDATE! 🐾

If you needed a reminder that shelter pets are absolutely amazing, here it is! 🐶🐱

There’s often a misconception that animals end up in shelters because something is “wrong” with them—but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Most pets find themselves here through no fault of their own.

With a little love, patience, and encouragement, these incredible animals can go on to accomplish truly wonderful things. 💖 Shelter pets are resilient, loving, and just waiting for their chance to shine!

"Just a quick pupdate: Millie (Denali) officially became a certified therapy dog today with the national exclusive group: Go Team Therapy Dogs. Nine months from shelter pup to Therapy Dog. ❤️❤️"

Breed: Catahoula Leopard Mix

Age: 6 years

Personality: Full of love and affection! Bandit is known to hop around like a bunny when he’s excited—pure joy on four legs!

Hello to our incredible community!

First and foremost, we want to express our sincere gratitude for your continued support during the good and hard times.

We want to reach out regarding our current, critical situation. Our shelter has experienced an overwhelming influx of dogs this week, and we are at full capacity, with more animals expected to arrive today. We need your help in networking/ adopting the animals listed below to secure safe places for them. These are considered extremely urgent currently.

We want to specifically address the group of puppies in our care, as one of them, Penny, has shown signs consistent with parvovirus. Penny had an episode of significant blood and diarrhea, and after testing, she showed a faint positive for parvo and CBC testing was consistent with parvovirus. While her case seems to be resolving with minimal treatment, we are treating her as if she is still infectious, which means all her littermates are considered exposed as well which would be Bella, Amelia, Baxter, and Link.

At this moment, none of these puppies have shown anymore symptoms, but given the high volume of animals in our shelter, we are asking rescues to isolate them for an additional 10 days to ensure their safety and prevent any potential spread.

We understand how hard it can be to work within these constraints, but it is difficult for us, as we navigate through this in addition to our space constraints. We ask for your understanding and patience as we take these precautions to protect all the animals under our care.

We will continue to do everything we can to adjust and find solutions, but please know that these animals urgently need a home.

We will be waving all adoption fees for these dogs. If you wish to inquire about any of these animals or would like to know what makes them urgent please reach out to us and we will be happy to share what we know about each animal.

We truly appreciate your understanding and support as we navigate this difficult time. We know that these choices are not easy, but with your help, we can give these animals the best chance for a brighter future. Thank you for your dedication and compassion.

🐾A PURR-FECT UPDATE! 🐾

Sweet Garfield arrived at our shelter in June after being attacked by two dogs. Fortunately, he only suffered minor injuries and, just a few days later, found his forever home with his dad—who we now call his hero!

We recently received this update and couldn’t be happier to hear that Garfield is thriving and living his best life.

Thank you for adopting, and thank you for sharing his story with us!

" Just wanted to give yall an update on a former resident…this is Betelgeuse (formerly Garfield) we adopted him in June after our cat Orion passed away. Betelgeuse had some pretty big shoes to fill and he’s done it perfectly! He’s the perfect mix of mischief and sweetheart and we love him dearly! Thank you for giving us our newest baby and for helping mend our broken hearts after losing our boy! 🧡"

🐾 Meet Lo**ta – Our Second Longest Resident 🐾

We’re not sure why Lo**ta hasn’t found her forever home yet—she’s a total sweetheart! ❤️

🐶 Age: 1 year
⚖️ Weight: 43 lbs (not too big, not too small—just right!)
💖 Personality: Loving, playful, and ready to be your best friend

While Lo**ta is an absolute darling, she has a bit of a fascination with chickens 🐓 (if you catch our drift), so she’ll need a home without any feathered friends.

This sweet girl has been patiently waiting for her hero. Could it be you? Help Lo**ta find a cozy, loving home for the Howlidays! 🎄

Come meet her at WPCAS and see why she deserves to be part of your family.

📍 Weatherford Parker County Animal Shelter
📅 Open Monday - Friday | 11 AM - 6 PM & Saturday 11AM - 4PM

🐾 PUPDATE! 🐾
Huge shout out to this amazing family who opened their home to our sweet Clover and not only saved her but gave her this amazing/adorable family to be a part of! She is so incredibly happy just like she deserves to be. Her new mom had this to say and we couldn't agree with her more!

"Just wanted to give an update on Clover,

We adopted Clover on the 15th off the euthanasia list, you’ll remember her as the lady bug from the Halloween photos. Even though it hasn’t even been 2 full weeks yet, you would think we’ve had her since she was a puppy! She is the sweetest girl, she loves all of the kids and follows them around everywhere they go. I think the hardest decision she makes daily is which kid to stick to like Velcro 🤣 if she’s not with them she is right next to me. She immediately got along with our 3 other dogs and they all have so much fun playing. Her favorite game is to chase our lab when she’s going after her ball. It still blows my mind that dogs like this who will give you their whole heart end up in shelters and then looked overlooked and eventually euthanized. We really weren’t looking for another dog but I feel lucky we found her. If you’re reading this and you can, go get one of those dogs that are on their last moments and give them a new life. I promise you won’t regret it. 😊"
