JACK HAS BEEN ADOPTED! Do you enjoy snuggling with little dogs? Do you appreciate a strong bond between yourself and “man’s best friend?” Do you have time, patience, and a huge heart? If you answered yes to all of these, than you might want to come into the Ark and meet Jack, a loving and sweet one-year old beagle. As a young hound breed, Jack will need work on some of his basic manners, including counter-surfing, jumping, and walking politely on a leash. Although very petite for a beagle, he has a little bit of strength behind his pull! He enjoys putting his nose to the ground, and smelling his way all over the place. His favorite things to do include cuddling, wagging his tail, and playing with kitties. Jack does well with other dogs, but can sometimes be scared of them if they are dominant or bark at him, so he may need some adjustment time to get acclimated to his new surroundings. Jack enjoys being close to “his people” and will bark and howl when left alone. He likes to follow you around and look at you adoringly. For Jack’s adoption, we will require a secure fenced in back-yard* and someone who has experience with hound breeds. Please give us a call or stop in today to meet your new best friend

Meet Layla. She is really hoping someone doesn’t judge her by her right eye that she has lost, and that someone will see the beauty within. Layla is used to being with other kitties. According to her feline evaluation, she is soft and relaxed in her body posture. Upon first meeting humans, she looks at them and then ignores them, but remains very calm. Upon initially being touched, she sniffs, butts her head, rubs on your hand, and rolls onto her back. She doesn’t respond to toys so far, but she likes to huddle with other kitties and appears bonded to another cat that we have in the shelter, who is a gray and white tiger cat. She tolerates being touched everywhere, but thoroughly enjoys being held in your arms. She is a bit shy and will need time to acclimate. She is cautiously friendly, and more at a stage where she likes to “observe” her humans rather than play. She would enjoy hidey holes. She is a nice cat who is quiet and calm. We hope that whoever falls in love with her might consider adopting her friend for reassurance.

“I is not mean, I just has pretty toothies.” This is Scud, who is just the sweetest thing. He likes to show off his “little” brother Slinky, even though they are the same age. Skud weighs about 18 pounds and Slinky falls behind at a whopping 9 pounds. Once you meet these two, you’ll see that they will run away with your heart, and you might even want to adopt both of them together! Please come in and meet these two Pomeranian mixes today. (We believe they look more like papillons, but either way, they are just as lovable as they can be)! DOB 2/12/19.

Say cheese! This beautiful lady is smiling for the camera, hoping to be home soon. Taina is a beautiful chestnut caramel color and is a 20-week old spayed female. We aren’t exactly sure of her mix, but we just know that she was mixed right! If you have an interest in this lovely pup, please call the shelter or stop in, and fill out an application! Taina will need to be adopted with her sister Terri, who is the same age and mix, but a lovely ebony black in color. Both dogs don’t “show” well, and tend to bark at people, are can be very fearful. They will need to have multiple meet and greets in order to be able to go home with someone. We are looking for a family with dedication to working with fearful, timid dogs that have a lot of patience and love. At the Ark, we just know they will find a home as loving as they are. Take a look at our website to read about Terri as well!
