Pet Of The Week

Hank is your typical guy-next-door! He’s handsome, down to earth, and quite frankly a total sweetheart. Hank is a great sidekick, happy to be by your side as much as you let him. Don’t get us wrong though – Hank is also content snoozing during the workday if that’s what fits your schedule. Generally, he’s pretty low maintenance and chill. Hank is still young and playful, but has a good “off” switch when needed. Hank gets along great with other dogs, but is best with those that are his size or can keep up with his desire to play with them. When it comes to people, Hank’s ideal family would be free of small children, as they tend to make him nervous. Due to some sort of traumatic past, he can be nervous with new people. But once you gain his trust (which doesn’t take long with a few treats involved), there’s no more loyal friend than Hank, who’d protect you with his intruder bark. This boy is a gem of a dog, and spending time in foster care gaining house dog skills to top it all off. He’s housebroken, crate trained, and walks great on leash!

If Hank can find his furever family by close of business on Saturday his adoption fee will be waived, thanks to our sponsor The Natural Dog (Hickory).

Patience is a virtue when it comes to our sweet Gooseberry. He’s not a cat that lives an outgoing life at the shelter, and often times is nervous with new people, and hiding under his cat bed. Per his previous home, he was your typical orange cat – goofy, adventurous and sweet! Unfortunately, shelter life takes a toll on some animals, Gooseberry being one. We know he’ll get his spark back once he gets out of this environment. Until then, we will continue vouching for our handsome orange man, and ensuring he is as comfortable as we can make him. At this time, we would recommend a calm home for Gooseberry. One without large, energetic dogs or kids would be preferred. He can get along with feline friends, but prefers some of his own space as well! We know the right home is out there for Gooseberry. Could that be yours?

If Gooseberry can find his furever family by close of business on Saturday his adoption fee will be waived, thanks to our sponsor The Natural Dog (Hickory).
