News and Announcements
K103 Pet of the Week: Brady
Brady is the K013 Pet of the Week! He's a brilliant and active young man looking for a home who will provide daily exercise, guidance, and training to help him into adulthood. He's still young and has a lot to learn, like how hard is too hard when taking a treat! The shelter will require that his adopter take classes with him and is not recommending him for a home with young kids. He's cute and easy to train- he's sure to charm someone! Maybe you? He's about 6 months of age and weighs 44lbs.
K103 Pets of the Week: Porter and Percy
Porter and Percy were our K103 Pets of the Week today! They're brothers that came in to the shelter together but will adjust and flourish once separated. Shy at first, once you connect with them, they are sold on you (lots of licks, kisses, and wiggles). We know these boys will be great canine citizens when they complete their required classes. You may view Porter and Percy's profiles here.
