Where are our Husky lovers?!
Chester is a 5 year old Husky mix who is super-smart with a splash of quirkiness. He loves to take walks with his friends, and sometimes he likes to talk to you to tell you how his day is going 😜. His ideal home is an adult one with a fenced yard and breed experience. He may do well with another dog as well. Chester has an independent streak to him. But once you are part of Chester's circle, he will shower you with affection!
If you are looking for a loyal Husky with a great sense of humor, then look no further than Chester!
Stop by the VAO to meet him soon!

It's just Jeffrey!
How would you like to say "Good Morning" to this handsome face every day?!
Jeffrey is just 2 years old and he came to us as a stray. When his owners realized that they were no longer able to care for him, they signed Jeffrey over to us. That's okay though, because we are going to find Jeffrey a fabulous forever home!
We think he would be happiest with a fenced in yard where he can run and play, and a family that can stay active with him. Jeff seems to like other dogs, and he did live with children as well. He doesn't always realize just how big he is, so dog-savvy kids over 10 would be ideal (or an adult only home!).
If you are looking to add a young & playful hunk to the family, then Jeffrey could be the one for you!
Come meet him at the VAO today.

Come meet Bentley at the VAO today!
We open at noon.

A Rose is a rose is a rose...
Rose is a sweet senior who finds herself back in the shelter after many years in a loving home. Sadly, her beloved owner fell ill and could no longer care for her. She's almost 12 years old, housebroken, and already trained. She loves a comfy bed and enjoys short walks. Rose prefers to be your only dog, and she would prefer a home without too many steps to go up & down. Other than that, she isn't asking for much. Maybe a fenced yard so she can bask in the sun. But mostly, she'd love a forever family that she can live out her golden years with.
Will you open your heart and home to this senior dog? She still has so much love to give.
Please ask to meet Rose at the VAO soon. 🌹

Schno Bo & Calbell
Calbell & Schno Bo are two of the nicest cats you will meet. We can't say enough good things about them! Calbell is 6 years old & Schno Bo is 11 years old and they shouldn't be living in the shelter. And as much as we love them, we would love for them to leave us and find a forever home together. They are such good boys and enjoy playing with their catnip toys and getting pets from their volunteer friends. Calbell was born with a deformed front leg, but it doesn't seem to bother him, and he gets around just fine. He'll even use his leg to open up the drawer of catnip toys and help himself! Please don't let these fabulous fellows spend another night sleeping in a cage. Stop by the VAO today and say hi to Calbell & Schno Bo! 💙

What's a girl gotta do to get noticed around here?!
Panini is 2 years old and a great medium size. This pretty lady takes a little time to warm up, but once she knows you, she loves you! Panini was never properly socialized with other dogs, and can be reactive to them here at the shelter, so we would love for her to find a home where she will be your only dog. She can be insecure, and would love a quiet home environment with a patient owner who will give her time to build her confidence. Panini responds well to a kind touch and positive reinforcement.
If you are willing to put in a little work, Panini promises you a lifetime of unconditional love in return.
If Panini sounds like a fit for your family, please stop by the VAO and ask to meet her soon.

Ringo
Everybody loves Ringo. This 8 year old orange fellow was found as a stray and was scared when he first joined us. But he's warmed up nicely and is easygoing and very easy to love. He doesn't ask for much and enjoys snoozing on his blanket and getting pets from his volunteer friends. And since Ringo is a shy guy, we think he'll be happiest in a quiet home with a patient owner who will give him plenty of time and TLC. Please don't let this sweet boy spend another night sleeping in his cage. Come meet Ringo at the VAO soon. We all love him and think you will love him, too. 🧡

Nobody asks to meet miss Uma… 🥲
This 6 year old American Bulldog-mix is a smart and sensitive house dog. She has a very sunny disposition and is already trained and housebroken too! Uma greets everyone she meets with a smile, and is on the calmer, gentler side. Yes, Uma is really that awesome! Yet literally no one has ever asked to meet her 😞
Uma will do well with older, dog-savvy kids, but she would prefer to be your only dog. This sweetie has never had her own fenced yard and would LOVE to bask in the sunshine in her very own space.
Someone is really missing out because Uma is going to be a fabulous and faithful new family member. Please don't pass Uma by! Come meet her at the VAO VERY soon!

Love is like a Rose; its beauty is divine, its fragrance is sweet, and its promise is forever.
Rose is a senior in need of a loving home. She's almost 12 years old, housebroken, and already trained. She loves a comfy bed and enjoys short walks. Rose prefers to be the only dog in the home, and she's not good with steps. She doesn't ask for much, but the shelter is no place for her to live out her golden years.
Will you open your heart and home to this senior dog? She's still got plenty of love to give.
Please ask to meet with her soon. 🌹
