Pets of the Week

DOG OF THE WEEK: SOCRATES (51167000)

Meet Socrates, the wise 4-year-old Black Mouth Cur who's a delight to be around. He's a pro at walking on a leash and has the charming habit of returning when called by a whistle. Socrates' potty-training skills are top-notch, and while he’s mastering the 'down' command to curb his jumping, his affectionate nature shines brightly. His love for toys, outdoor play, and treats makes him an endearing companion ready to bring joy and companionship to a loving home. Stop by the shelter today to meet this lovely boy.

CAT OF THE WEEK:

CLEOCATRA (54491614)

Meet Cleocatra, who will surely steal your heart. Cleocatra needs some extra care that makes her an ideal fit for a quiet and consistent home where she can feel secure and stress-free. She suffers from the medical condition idiopathic cystitis, which causes her to experience bladder pain when feeling stressed. This sweet girl can thrive in a peaceful and happy environment. If you have a laid-back demeanor, then Cleocatra is the cat for you! l.
