"MADRA" - Boxer
1-3 yrs Female 47 lbs
I'm a real sweet girl who loves attention.
I'll be very excited to meet you, so please take me out of my kennel and take the time to get to know me.
You'll find that I listen to you and take instructions well.
Don't worry about my bark, I've been told it scares people away. But I'm all bark and no bite.
I don't like cats, so I need a home without cats.
I'm pretty good with other dogs, but the staff wants me to meet other dogs in my household just to double check before I go home.
I had just finished nursing puppies when I came to the shelter, so you may notice that I'm still getting my girlish figure back.

"ACE" - American Pitbull Terrier *NEUTERED*
3-5 yrs Male 77 lbs
I'm a very good boy with great manners. I know sit, down, and stay. I walk nicely on a leash.
I do not like cats, though, so I need a home without them.
I also can be reactive to other dogs. so no other dogs in my family either.
I definitely need to be on leash when not in a securely fenced yard.
Since I'm already neutered, my adoption fee is just $45 plus the cost of my rabies vaccination at the vet of your choice.

"RANGER" - Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen mix
1-2 yrs Male 34 lbs
Sweet and eager to please...he loves treats and he learns quickly. Should be pretty easy to train!
Currently still a little unsure, so he's a nervous pee-er when you first get him out of his kennel. He warms up pretty quickly, though, and he loves attention, so this should be easier to overcome once he's in a stable and loving home.

Take me out of my cage and you'll find out that I LOVE TO CUDDLE.

I showed my true colors as a mom.
Even though I'm barely 1-year-old, I came in with two kittens and helped to nurse a third.
FYI, my name is pronounced 'nicks'.

HELP OUR MEDICAL FUND:
Donate Steel and Aluminum Cans
Not only can you donate aluminum cans for recycling, you can now DONATE STEEL CANS too!
All we ask is that you rinse out the steel cans really well (we don't want to encourage not-so-adoptable critters to hang out around the shelter) and place them in a separate bag from the aluminum cans.
Drop both types of cans (remember, in separate bags) in the large labeled bin that is on the east side of the shelter - that's to your left when facing the shelter's front door.
Thanks for helping with our four-legged friends' medical needs!

DOC *not available for adoption*
I'm the new King of the Shelter. You will find me roaming the lobby and helping to welcome people and pets to our shelter.
Sometimes you'll find me snoozing in my cozy bed on the counter...I love a good massage, so feel free to spoil me!
I'm a laid back guy, so I'm pretty good at putting people and pets at ease. I'm also helping to "cat-test" other animals.

"BU"
IN MEMORY
"BU", our shelter cat, went across the rainbow bridge Monday May 22 from cancer.
Bu greeted visitors with love and playfulness, helped at the front desk with paperwork,
let the incoming pets know it was going to be okay, and tested the dogs for cat-friendliness.
But most of all Bu was friend, family & coworker to shelter employees and volunteers.
Bu is short for Shinobu which means to endure.
He will be missed and will endure in our hearts!
Bu was 17 years old.
