<strong>The</strong>se are just a few of the many faces in our care that<br />
are patiently waiting for their forever families to find<br />
them. We know there’s a match out there for all of<br />
them. And for all the rest of their friends at the shelter<br />
and in foster homes that aren’t pictured here on these<br />
pages. Maybe one has been waiting all this time to<br />
rescue YOU... Adopt a shelter pet today!<br />
I LOVE ALL<br />
THE SNACKS!<br />

SWEETIE - Female<br />
5 ½ years old - Tuxedo DSH<br />
I’m Sweetie, a name that fits me to a "T." I am a soft<br />
little munchkin, very friendly and affectionate,<br />
who just can’t wait to be free from my kennel and<br />
into the arms of my loving new family. I could use<br />
a little TLC to plump me back up to size. I have<br />
the softest black fur and the longest (really long!)<br />
white whiskers. My favorite is when you gently<br />
stroke my ears – oh boy, do I love that; watch me<br />
melt into a puddle of floof! I hope to meet you<br />
soon so that I can figure out what kind of cuddling<br />
you like in return.<br />
BRUNO - Male<br />
6 years old - Pit Bull Terrier Mix<br />
Hi! I am Bruno, the bestest boy! Some things about me, I love my<br />
walks especially when I get to sniff all the new smells, and I love<br />
all the snacks. Don’t let my age fool you, I may be a bit of an old<br />
man, but man do I love tug of war and I get the zoomies just like<br />
those young pups. And not to brag or anything but I’m a bit of a<br />
fan favorite around the shelter. Because they all know I love my<br />
friends sooo much! And I make them wherever I go. I know I said<br />
I can run just like those young pups, but don’t get me wrong, my<br />
favorite thing in the whole wide world is to cuddle up with you and<br />
take the biggest snuggliest naps.<br />
