Chance Encounters - UPDATE!!!!

Chance_Encounters
AAAAOOOOWWW yeah!  Doggies in the house.  Ok.  But enough celebrating.  Lets get to  the pup talk.  This week some cutie pups came.  They're a little shy of me, but from dogservation (man I'm good at dog jokes) I saw that they are totally snuggleable and, I think, adorable.  Their names are Chico and Stella. Stella’s two years old and sooo tiny.  Chico is ten months and an adventurous pup.   They are both Chihuahuas.   Chico looks like a fox and Stella has one ear flopping over one standing up.  She is so cute.   I really like them.  I will put up pics when I have some good ones.

Here are those pics I promised!!!!

SOOO BORED.

Hi, Chance here. I AM BORED OUT OF MY MIND!!!! I am no longer sneezing so I can get a kennel cough vaccination on Thursday.  Believe me, I'm not happy about it. The only good thing is soon a dog can come over. Chance,  over and out.

PETS OF THE WEEK!!!!!

Pearl

Pearl is one big bundle of energy- there just aren't enough toys at Homeward Pet for her to play with. If we didn't know better, we would swear she was a little kitten. Pearl is all grey and a little over a year old. She has beautiful soft fur that begs to be touched. She enjoys some touching and will let you know when you are dismissed!

Pearl likes to be with her humans and can often be found wrapped around your feet when you are walking. This spirited gal would be best as an only cat and is recommended for an experienced cat owner. You won't want to ever watch television again as Pearl will be live entertainment for you!

Email cats@homewardpet.org if you have questions, or come visit the shelter to see Pearl in person!

Hunter

Hunter is a personable eight year-old dog at Homeward Pet, who is looking for a special home. This handsome fellow is seeking the right living situation that has eluded him for so long. Like so many unfortunate animals, he was mistreated as a younger dog, so he needs an experienced owner who will understand that he's not comfortable in some social situations. Hunter is a wonderful dog who is seeking another chance to win someone over. He's quite the charmer, so he knows it only a matter of time.

Hunter is looking for an owner who will provide him with a quiet home environment. Busy households with lots of visitors make him uncomfortable and aren't for him. He requires an adult only home, and is not a good match for children or households with child visitors. Hunter is good with cats, and while he doesn't have much life experience with other dogs, he might be open to sharing a home with the right canine companion. Prior dog experience and knowledge of the Cocker Spaniel breed will be required of all potential adopters.

Hunter is a smart dog who knows several commands. He is crate trained, house trained, and possesses great all-around house manners. He loves to snuggle with his people and enjoys playing, especially with his cherished whiffle balls. Hunter weighs 30 pounds and sports a beautiful, soft coat.

Email dogs@homewardpet.org if you have questions, or come visit the shelter to see Hunter in person!

The “Scratching” Post

This week I interviewed Erin about Garbo. Isn't Garbo a cute name?  Erin is an adoption counselor, as well as the dog foster care coordinator.  She also work with cats.  Garbo is three and a half years old, and still very adorable.  She came to Homeward first on November 17, 2008.  Her first name was Gizmo.  She was adopted and then brought back because she was setting off the people’s house alarm. Why didn’t they fix the alarm???? Sad smile  Then she was adopted for a couple of years but had to be returned because the people’s son had medical problems.  How sad.  She was last  returned September 8, 2011.  Garbo is very sweet and loves to be pet, she doesn’t like cats but is fine with dogs.  She loves to be snuggled and to play, and she has the cutest little face. Really look at it!!!!!!! Red heart
