Beaumont

Breed: Beagle/ Unspecified
Gender: Male
Age: Adult

Looking for a canine buddy to trek the fields and forests or just brave the jungles of suburbia? Then I am your man! I am a hound with a mission to smell out everything edible. I am a mature boy who appreciates having my space and body respected with gentle handling. I am looking for a home with an active single person, couple, or family with kids over the age of 10 years. I may not be a good match for a home with cats but another dog is a possibility. I am about years of age and I weigh lbs. Ask about me today!

Crook

Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Male

My name is Crook. I do not steal things, I got my name because I have a crook in my tail. I am the smallest of my siblings (1 sister and three brothers). I enjoy playing with others and I have been exposed to cats and dogs of different ages. I like to cuddle with my foster family. If you have any questions, or are interested in adopting me, please contact my foster mom Julie at [email protected].

Riley

Breed: Chihuahua/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult

My name is Riley, I am a little guy looking to catch a little break in a big world! I can be a little nervous at times but it only takes me a little bit of time to warm up. I would be too overwhelmed for a home with little kids, so I am hoping to find a family with children older than 12. I will need a little bit of house training--crate training would be an excellent way to help with house traing and give me a safe place to call my own. I am hoping you see the BIG potential and what a great little companion I will be. I am about 5 years of age and I weigh a little over 10 lbs. Ask about me today!

Gigas

Breed: Domestic Longhair/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Elderly

Hello! Are you looking for a sweet, gentle, mature guy? Well that's me! My name is Gigas and I'm looking for a home to live out my golden years. Unfortunately I have been tossed from home to home recently and really need stability in my life. I haven't been taken care of that great lately and seem to have been on my own for a bit. The nice people here at the shelter are helping me out though. However, they did find out that I am diabetic, so I will require some special care. I am about 11 years old and weigh 11.6 pounds. Please come down and visit me today!

Sandra

Breed: Labrador Retriever/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult

Hello, my name is Sandra! I arrived at the shelter with my brother Dean and we are looking for a new family. My shelter friends can't quite figure out why we have become homeless since we are such nice dogs and in good health. We arrived already altered, social, and already know a couple of tricks. Are you interested in us? Please come down and say hello! I am around 3 years old and weigh 71 pounds.

Baby Boy

Breed: Siamese/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult

Hello, my name is Baby Boy. I arrived at the shelter with my siblings because my dad is no longer able to take care of us. He is heartbroken and hopes that we can find a home who loved us as much as he did. We were acquired as a feral litter that he rehabilitated and my dad says that although I am shy with strangers, I warm up within hours and am an amazing cat. We lived with other cats and dogs but have never been exposed to children. My adopter should be a single person or couple who is patient and can provide us a quiet space to blossom. I am around 5 years old and weigh 15.4 pounds. Ask about me today!

Lexie

Breed: Shetland Sheepdog/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult

Hello! My shelter friends have affectionately named me Lexie for my adorable face and my diva personality. I would like to start off saying that if you are searching for a first time easy going dog for your companion then I am probably not the gal for you. An experienced adult only adopter who is willing to give me time to build a trusting relationship, who doesn't have a busy household and who is willing to respect my boundaries sounds like a better match for me! If you bring along some hot dog or cheese for a first time meeting, that will definitely sweeten the deal. Are you interested in a special girl like me? I have been at the shelter for over two months and would love a home for the holidays. I am around 12 years old and weigh 15 pounds.

Sabrina

Breed: Domestic Longhair/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult

Hello, they call me Sabrina here at the shelter. A nice man saw me get hit by a car near 122nd & Sandy, so he brought me here. Turns out my leg couldn't be fixed, so I said let's get rid of it. I'm scheduled to have it removed on December 26th, and if I had a home that could take care of me right after that without moving in and out of foster, that would be the best ever. I'm a sweet little girl, only about 4 1/2 years old, so there's a lot of good time to be spent with me, brushing my fur and buying me toys and yummy treats. Of course you will want to keep me inside only, since outside is where I got into trouble before. Come down and see what a charming young lady I am.

Caleb

Breed: American Shelter Dog
Gender: Male
Age: Adult

Hello, my name is Caleb! I am a handsome fellow that can't wait to start fresh with a new family! I arrived at the shelter with a good attitude and some itchy skin. My friends here have started me on the road to recovery and they are hoping you find my silly personality just as charming as they do! I know some tricks, I have been affectionate, playful, and still have that get up and go personality. Because of my age and skin issues that may cause some irritation we are asking that any children in my new family be over the age of 8. Please come down and meet me. I am around 7 years old and weigh a lean 50 pounds.
