why would you give a dog a normal name when you could name him Blorbo. the world is your oyster

Meet Rico, an athlete with a heart of gold and today's #AdoptAShelterDogMonth dog! This boy is strong, smart, and full of energy - it's kind of like having our very own star linebacker. This guy is built to move, and he’s happiest when he’s got a job or something fun to do.

if you adopt this little guy, you can finally say you know the Muffin Man. you can also say you emptied the Muffin Man's litter box and leave all of your loves ones very confused

We had even more dogs come in this weekend and are now over 100% capacity. We are quite literally out of room. Starting today, all dogs 6 months and older now have adoption fees of $20 in celebration of Dog-tober, aka #AdoptAShelterDogMonth!

Easy, breezy, beautiful - Breeze is our dog of the day for #AdoptAShelterDogMonth! Breeze is a young, happy girl with lots of spunk. She's a pro at fetch and she loves belly rubs and giving lots of snuggles (even though she's 70lbs, she's determined to sit in your lap!)

We're running out of available kennels! To help clear some space and in celebration of #AdoptAShelterDogMonth, we're having an adoption special! 💜 From Thursday through Sunday, all adult dogs 25lbs+ will be 'Pick your Price', which means YOU get to decide the adoption fee.

Elvira isn't a morning person. or an afternoon person. she's not an evening person either. she's actually not a person at all. she's a cat. hope this clears things up

Snow is our featured dog today for #AdoptAShelterDogMonth! She's a social butterfly who loves to meet new people and LOVES to play. She may be considered a senior dog, but good luck convincing her of that!

Stuart is our dog of the day for #AdoptAShelterDogMonth! This handsome guy's favorite words are 'play' and 'snuggle'. In fact, those are basically his only two settings. Stuart loves making friends, will sit for treats and he's got some of the best zoomies we've ever seen!
