Here are our wonderful pets just waiting for you now!
Please take a few moments to see if you could open your heart and your home to any of these special pets.
Rocco is a Great Pyrenees and is approximately 10 months old. He was brought to our group because his owners could no longer care for him. He is a very friendly dog and seems to get along well with everyone. If you are interested in adopting Rocco, please call us for more information. Rocco is considered to be a special needs pet because he has a condition known as luxating patellas (basically his kneecap can become dislocated or move out of place). Rocco loves to meet and greet anyone.
Felix (pictured above) is a Pekinese Mix -This poor little dog has been through a lot. In November of 2010, Felix was rescued from a horrible dog breeding business. He is extremely friendly, loving, and gets along with both dogs and cats. Unfortunately, Felix is incontinent (he cannot control his bowels). It is believed that this condition is the result of an old injury, but we are not sure. So Felix is going to need a very loving and patient family who is willing to care for him despite his condition. Despite his special needs status, Felix is a wonderful, happy little dog. He truly deserves a second chance at a good life! And do we need mention that he is super cute?
Frazier- Pit Bull mix - is a sweet simple boy. He gets along well with other dogs but has a hard time keeping up. This boy is a true survivor because as a pup he had distemper which left him with a slight mobility problem. Actually when he runs it looks like he had just a little too much to drink! He is lovable and his happy attitude and sweet temperament is heartwarming. This is a guy you really want to take care of. In return he will offer you unconditional love and undying devotion.
Gibby – Australian Shepherd Mix - Gibby is deaf. He has blue eyes and one is smaller, but he can see just fine. He needs a loving retirement home. He is very friendly, very playful, and very loveable. He has a preference for females (and didn't really care for the other male dog he lived with). Notice his sweet smile too?! Gibby travels well in a car and has never had any type of training, but walks on a leash perfectly.
Marlee - Little Marlee was taken to an emergency clinic with horrific lacerations on her hind legs. The laceration on her right leg is stapled shut in a long line extending almost 8 inches, while the laceration on her left leg has too little skin left to stitch, so it was left open and bandaged. In spite of all this, Marlee is a very sweet girl! She purrs and makes biscuits and is happy to have her head scratched and to be loved on. We anticipate she'll heal well, and should be ready for her forever home soon.
Stumpy - Yep, you guess it, her name is Stumpy because she is missing a foot! Her history is a mystery, because she was dropped off at a shelter, but it doesn't matter because her presence is such a gift. Stumpy has no idea that she has a disability - she takes her time moving around, but runs when she needs to and is a litter box champ. She's a normal kitty who wants to be petted and have a loving, playful relationship with her very own human. Stumpy is also diabetic - she receives a small amount of insulin once every morning. Again, don't call Stumpy disabled as a little bit of insulin and she's good to go! Stumpy must be an indoor-only kitty, and she would prefer to live in a quiet home as the Queen Bee but she would be happy to hang out with some older, mellow kitties, too. She is calm and sweet and has been relaxed and affectionate around children, but of course you want to make sure that children don't play rough with her.
Winnie - Winnie is approximately 5 years old and super loving. She is a total love bug with people and is a very inquisitive cat. She is not shy at all and will approach anyone for petting. Not fond of being picked up but LOVES to be petted and have her head and cheeks scratched lots and lots. Winnie does not like other female cats but is totally fine with male cats and dogs. Winnie is a healthy FIV+ cat (not to be confused with Feline Leukemia/FeLV). Cats with FIV can live long, healthy lives and this diagnosis should not discourage anyone from adopting.
