HEY HUMAN!!!! WANNA PLAY WITH ME?!? I'm Freddy and I'm 9 months old and I'm REAL strong. Wanna play tug? I'm like Superman, only a dog. Or maybe like The Flash! I can run like the wind! I hear that quasi-chocolate-labby-ish dogs are known for being really goofy. Like, the prop comics of the animal world. D'ya think that's true? I know I'm not any kind of purebred anything, but my vibes are 100% silly goose. I LOVE toys. All kinds. If you give me a squeaky, I'll zoom around the yard with it, joyfully tossing it in the air and
Oh! There you are! I've been waiting for you to come and meet me. You know those videos of people getting new dogs for Christmas? My story is kind of the opposite of that. Instead of bursting out of a box to the delight of a smiling kid on Christmas, I was tied to a fence and abandoned. In a way, it was a different kind of gift: I got lots of new friends all at once, I got a new name (it's Jonas), and it got me to a place where I might get to meet YOU! That's the best
My name is Streetcar and I'm all about first impressions. Like, when I came to the shelter, the first thing they did to me was to reach into my carrier with a little wand thing and wave it over my back. "Just checking for a microchip," they said, as though I'm supposed to know what that means. The first thing I did was to arch my back up, purring, to rub against the chip scanner. I wanted to let them know right away that we were going to be friends. Welp, I guess the chip thing was a bust. And if I
Looking for a cat with personality? Meet Fireball! Fireball is a total sweetheart… most of the time. She LOVES attention, enjoys cuddles, and will happily curl up next to you—until she decides she needs some alone time. She’s affectionate, sassy, and 100% herself. Fireball is looking for a quiet, cat-free home where she can be the center of your world. She doesn’t want to share the spotlight, and honestly, she deserves it. She’s currently at Open Door Animal Sanctuary, just waiting for the right person to come along and appreciate her for the loving (and occasionally moody) queen that she
Looking for a cat with personality? Meet Marge! Marge is a chatty, playful, people-loving queen who’s looking for her forever home! She LOVES to talk (seriously—she has opinions about everything), and she’s always up for a game or a cuddle. Marge is super active, loves toys, and will happily entertain you for hours with her antics. She’s also got a quirky habit of gently chewing on fingers—her special way of saying “I love you.” Marge does best as the only pet—she wants all your attention, and she deserves it! If you're ready for a fun, feisty companion who will keep
Hi friend! Hi there! I heard you were looking for the sweetest, wiggliest, happiest, friendliest baby boy in town! Well, my name is Dingo and I might just fit the bill! I'm the kind of little fella who is just overflowing with love and enthusiasm. Every person who walks by is another potential best friend! If you want a dog you can take to a festival or parade, I'm your guy. I'm about 25 lb and I've got adult teeth, but definite puppy vibes. I came to the shelter as a stray, so I don't know when my birthday really is.
Cats aren't great with computers, but I hear there's been a change in my record in the shelter computer system lately. Normally, it just says "Barry" and then it says that I'm a neutered male, about 4 years old, up to date on shots, good with other cats, and so forth. Now, it says "Barry " because I've been here and waiting for a home for six months. 201 days, to be exact. That officially classifies me as a "long-stay" cat. Why? Search me! I'm a great cat. I'm affectionate and fun, I like to play with toys, and I'm
If you need someone to make you happy when the skies are gray, don't you worry- I'll be your Sunshine! That's my name, after all. And it's a pretty good descriptor. Warm and bright and capable of making you happier just by being nearby: that's me! I'm a quiet soul who will happily soak up all the attention you've got to give me. I love having my ears scratched and my soft little forehead rubbed. Once we've spent some time getting acquainted, I also love being picked up and held, and will purr my little heart out when you rock me
Does your welcome mat say, "Go Away"? Is your ideal weekend one where you don't have to see or speak to anyone? Is your vocabulary mostly made up of sarcasm and swear words? Then you're my kind of person! I'm Casey. I fiercely love my own close friends and family. People who know me will tell you I'm super smart, hilarious, loyal, and a joy to be around. I know a few tricks and learn new ones quickly and willingly. One of my best shelter friends likes to teach me about cool things like jumping through hoops and running through tunnels
I'm Lucy and people tell me all the time that I'm a "typical pittie!" Isn't that great? I'm not sure what it actually means, but the humans always seem happy when they say it. They say it with a laugh when I meet someone and wag my entire body so hard that, one of these days, I may lift off like a helicopter and take flight! I can't help it- I'm just so happy to see everyone! They say it with a proud smile when I'm in the midst of a group of excited little kids and I'm totally in my element,
