Back-to-school season is here, and it's a big adjustment for pets too!

After a summer full of extra attention, your dog or cat may need a little time to settle into a new routine. Help make the transition easier by sticking to a consistent schedule, leaving them with toys or enrichment activities, and spending quality time together when you're home.

A little patience goes a long way in helping your furry friend feel safe, happy, and loved.

Have you ever seen a cat the size of a small bear cub? 🐻🐱

Yeah… us either.

When Andre the Giant came to us after being found on the streets, we knew he was something special. It didn’t take long for one of our staff members to completely fall in love with this larger-than-life feline, and now he’s officially found his forever home!

From the streets to the staff mascot, Andre’s days of wandering are over. ❤️ Here’s to endless naps, extra-large cuddles, and living the spoiled life he deserves.

Looking for a fun way to spend the day? Grab a furry friend and hit the town!

With our Mutts on the Move program, approved participants can take one of our shelter dogs on a day trip to enjoy a walk, grab a pup cup, relax at a dog-friendly park, or simply spend quality time together.

These outings give our dogs a much-needed break from the shelter, help them build confidence, and introduce them to potential adopters along the way. It's a win-win for both you and the pups!
