🍝 Are you ready... for some S'GHETTI? Yes, that's right- it's just "S'ghetti," not "Spaghetti." I'm like one of those guys whose parents just name them "Drew" or "Chris" instead of "Andrew" or "Christopher" or whatever. I mean, you can give me a new name if you want. L'sagne, T'tellini, M'caroni, Jim... In fact, I think it's a great time for LOTS of things to be new! I only just turned a year old and, before I came to the shelter, I was abandoned. I had mange and needed surgery on my eye. I don't even know my real birthday. Now
Home, the final frontier... These are the voyages of the Starship Diplodocus. My continuing mission: To explore strange new worlds, cabinets, and nooks and crannies. To seek out new life and civilizations and make friends with them. To boldly go where no cat has gone before. You may call me an explorer. The truth is, I began as more of an intergalactic castaway. I crash-landed here at Open Door, along with the rest of my crew. We were quite lost, of course... but don't the best adventures begin that way? When we disembarked our spacecraft, we found a virtual paradise, quite
My name is FedEx and I'm a little dog with BIG opinions! First of all, I think all dogs should have a home. a GOOD home where they'll be cared for. For the rest of their lives, no matter what. And by "all dogs," I especially mean me. Second of all, I think that I, in particular, should be petted and petted for hours on end. I I sit there with my eyes half-closed and just soak it up. And if you stop, I'll come up next to you and stick my head under your arm and climb up into your lap.
Some people are just born suave, you know? They sliiiiiide through life without having to try and never quite have an inkling that it might be different for some people, you know? Aaaaand then there are some of us who are... "endearingly awkward." My name is Shasta and I'm one of those. I LOVE people. I really want to be friends with everyone. I march around and purr SO loudly and will even stand up on my little hind legs to reach for you if I think you might pet me. I'm a bit of a silly goose, but I'm
Do you find beauty in the strange and fantastical? Are you a connoisseur of the peculiar? I may be a curious creature, but, you see... I think perhaps we're made for each other. My name is Gallimimus. Like the dinosaur. And, at nine months old, I'm still quite young. My unique look isn't because of any particular breeding. I'm just naturally one-of-a-kind. You'll often find me upside-down, just looking at the world from a different angle. You can tickle my belly when you see it. I don't mind. Like many oddballs, I'm both something of an outcast and part of a large
First of all, yes. I really am this color. I'm not chocolate or black... more of a misty silver-blue. Oooooh. My name is Boulder and, oh man, does it fit! I'm a big guy. Solid. Nearly 80 lb of muscle. And definitely outdoorsy. I'm not the type of dog to sit at your feet all day long while you do needlepoint and drink tea. Nothing against that stuff- it's cool and all- but it's not my style. If, on the other paw, you're looking for a hiking, biking, running, rock climbing buddy (no, I don't have thumbs, but... don't underestimate
Yes, I know lots of people want a "doodle", but I'm something even better: I'm NOODLE! I'm a rare purebred Lapplandish Dappledazzle Tigerhund. And this color? Oh man. Gold Marmoris, it's called. You don't find dogs like this. It's totally unique. I'm specially bred to be a Very Good Boy: super sweet, good with other dogs, have yet to meet cats. A smidgen shy at first, but nothing that can't be overcome with a little bit of patience. Polite on leash and in the car. Very trainable. The perfect size at about 40 lb. I might sound like a pretty
You know what's wrong with kids today? ... Nothing. They're doing great. They're kids. I'm Paul Bunyan and I'm not a kid. I'm about five years old. And yeah, it's true- I'm not old enough to properly be a geezer yet. In cat years, I'm only like... 37. But that's not going to stop me! I was BORN prematurely gray. So yeah, I'm totally up for a nap in my recliner. You wanna talk about classic cars? Go play golf? I mean, I'm an indoor cat, but I like the idea in theory. I've got more of a "build a little wooden house for
Lunas unite! If I had to guess, I'd say one of two things are true. Either 1. When you get a dog, you plan on naming her Luna or 2. You already have a dog named Luna. And if you don't, your sister-in-law does or your next door neighbor does or at least one of your dog-loving co-workers does. If it's the first one, good news: that's already my name! And if it's the second... good news: I'm deaf, so you can call me whatever you like! I don't mind at all. That might sound a little scary, but don't
"I could never do what you guys do!" "Someone do something" "I don't know how you do it!" "I wish I could..." "I would, but..." This Giving Tuesday, you CAN! You can make a difference in the lives of dogs like Smoke, who was abandoned in his home when his owners moved and then let out on the streets to fend for himself when the landlord discovered him. Smoke deserved better from the beginning. He needed just one person to say "yes, I will help." And since that happened, life has turned around for him! It doesn't take a superhero
