Mss Dania is quite charming and beautiful. As described by her Puerto Rican rescue, she has an excellent temperament and socializes well with other dogs. She has also not shown a negative reaction towards cats and also loves people. She is 2.5 years old. We would love for you to come meet her!
Nashira is a beautiful little rescue dog from Peurto Rico. She is a lab mix who is about two years old. She has a good temperament and socializes well with other dogs. She is affectionate. She is new to the Ark, and would love to meet her possible new family sooner than later so she can romp around in her back yard, play toys and go for walks!
Beto is a beautiful Puerto Rican lab mix, one year old with a great personality and a lot of love to give. He is described as affectionate, and loves toys and playing. (He is also very handsome, but that is besides the point)! This very good and handsome boy is all ready to go home with his new family. He would love to play with them, go for walks, and be able to cuddle and get LOTS of attention. Please make an appointment to come meet him!
Meet shy Reuben, who is waiting patiently for the perfect family who will practice a lot of love and gentle compassion.
Reuben came from Puerto Rico, and was rescued from a bad situation. His motivation are food, treats, and warm comfy naps.
“I need a slow-feeder bowl, cuz I love to eat, and sometimes I eat too fast for my wittle belly! I just started to learn to like being petted by humans, but sometimes I flinch and can be very scared. I still don’t know how to play with toys, and I would love to get use to going for walks. These things look like a lot of fun to me. I’m currently on a special diet for my alopecia (hair loss). Please, please be gentle with me. I have been scared and my life was not easy. I need cooing, gentle voices, and a lot of love.-Reuben
Reuben really hopes you can teach him love again.
Reuben is almost 6 years old. He does great with cats, other dogs, and kids, however we prefer that Reuben does not go home with young children due to him scaring very easily. He needs time to acclimate in a quiet, tranquil environment and to not be scared.
Miss Penny may LOOK pretty, but she is a little feisty one! You will have to come in and meet her yourself. She’s got the looks, she’s got the attitude, and she will need owners who are ready for her fiery ways!
This little guy was brought in as a stray by himself. He is a little shy and will need someone to help him get use to being handled and loved. He currently feels safe in his little hidey hole bed. As you can see, he is so stinking cute that staff can’t help but pick him up and kiss him everyday!
Tucker is very sweet and likes to be petted. When you go to feed him, he rushes right over to the bowl…He says you can call him anything: Just don’t call him late to dinner. Tucker will make someone an awesome pet.
Nala is so beautiful and very friendly. She loves to be held! We are accepting applications on this beautiful girl!
Angel is an older kitty, who desperately needs a home! We love bragging about her. She is so petite, dainty and the most loveable cat you can imagine. All she wants to do is sleep in your lap and be loved. Someone is going to be very lucky to bring her home and love her.
This gorgeous kitty is Angus.
He likes to take his head and push it into your hand. He enjoys curling up on his human’s shoulder. Angus is very curious about things going on around him, and has no problem with other cats. He is just a love bug!
Lucky is such a beautiful soul, inside and out!
He is NOT an unwanted dog, but instead came to us from very sad circumstances within his family where they were unable to keep him- but he was very well loved.
Lucky is mild-mannered, will probably do well with another well-behaved dog and kitties, and seems to love all people and going for rides. He is 8 years old and up to date on his shots and neutered. He is ready to go home with the perfect family today! Lucky is a tad overweight, and so will probably need some good walkies and to have someone help him with his diet needs. (Maybe cutting back on food and mixing in some fresh carrots, sweet potatoes or canned green beans at meal time will do the trick)!
We’d love to see people with beagle experience, as Lucky has some of those lovely “beagl-y” characteristics including barking and howling. He will need to be on a sturdy run/tie-out for potty time or a leash, and/or a very secure fenced yard.
Lucky is 8 years old.
This beautiful cream/buff tabby girl is going to be ready for her family after she is spayed. She is as sweet as she looks.
Momo is named after Momo’s Cheesecake because she is just so stinking sweet. Momo will need to be spayed and after that, she will be ready to go home with a family who appreciates her beauty and sweetness.
Just look at this face. And also, this is a very sweet love-able man. He will be neutered soon, and ready to go home after!
This adorable handsome mansome came to us being just as sweet as can be. He will be neutered soon and ready to go home!

These handsome-mansomes are ready to go home. They have been at the shelter for several months, and it makes us really sad because they are such good boys. Gorgeous eyes and silky black and silver fur, these tabby cats are brothers and best friends. We really don’t want to separate them! If you have a soft spot for handsome tabbies who are a bit on the shy side, perhaps you can give a loving home to our boys. Pictured is Noah (Nermel is a tad camera shy, but rest assured he looks almost like his gorgeous brother)!
These two have FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus). Once thought to be dangerous, most cats with FIV can live long healthy lives. FIV positive cats cannot make their people sick, or other animals. FIV is only transmittable through bite wounds from cat to cat. That being said, it’s possible for these two to go to an FIV free home if there is no fighting or biting.
Poppy is a young adult who just arrived at the shelter. Friendly, sweet, and outgoing she is looking to spend her life with someone who will treat her well and give her treats.
Poppy is not yet spayed, but will be soon and will be ready to go!
Happy, friendly, handsome and full of love, we are pleased to introduce you to 3-year old Lucky, who was re-named after a lovely woman saved him from an abusive home. She cared for him, met all of his needs (medical, love and shelter) but ended up having to bring him to the Ark due to personal reasons. She was very heartbroken and loved Lucky very much. Lucky loves to be with gentle people and women, and even thinks he is a lap dog. He loves to go for walks.
Thanks to his pet guardians Lea and Roger Lane, we are going to be able to care for Lucky’s special neuter procedure, all the toys he wants, and buy him a new bed. You will see in the picture that he chewed up his favorite bed. We think he was very confused and upset and was wondering what is going on.
Lucky has suffered injuries to his mouth. He has problems chewing hard food and we need soak his food in warm water for him to be able to eat it. Lucky is scared of people throwing toys and lifting hands over his head. He is strong on a leash, and needs a little bit of work on his leash. He has tested positive for a tick-borne illness as well, which we will treat as needed.
Lucky is kennel trained and does very well in his kennel. It will be best for him to have a comfy and quiet kennel space available to him to go to when he pleases, at night and during the day.
We will not be adopting Lucky to a home that has young children. While we believe that Lucky is not aggressive AT ALL, what we DO believe is that Lucky has been through a lot, and noisy, bustling and unpredictable children would not be what he needs rights now. Lucky needs to be in a quiet home with mellow, older adults, preferably women who are gentle, patient, and have very big hearts.
We ask for serious inquiries on Lucky only, and we hope you have read all of his info before calling us. Please keep in mind that Lucky has been treated very poorly by the people in his life, but he does NOT treat people poorly as a result. This dog needs some love.
We have some ADORABLE updates on Zeus!
He loves to throw toys for himself and then catch them. After he goes outside, he runs right back inside to get his milkbone. (Milk bones are his favorite)! He likes to dig in the snow, he loves to play, and is very unique. He loves to get belly rubs, and after oiutside time, you have to wrestle him to get nakey. (To get his collar off). He loves belly rubs.
He is a handsome mansome who was neglected by his owners, however his spirits are high! He is a 8-10 year old blue heeler/pit mix. His personality is awesome. He has some minor skin issues. He is not yet neutered so we will have to do a foster-to-adopt, and/or an adoption with a neuter contract. Look how handsome he is and what a good boy he is! He is of cattle dog mix, so someone with experience with cattle dogs is preferred. We hate to see older dogs in a shelter environment. This gentleman needs to be in a home.
Spice is beautiful, shy, and a young kitty. She loves her sister Cinnamon, who is similar in looks and personality. She will need some adjustment time to come out of her shell, though she will surely spice up your day and your life with her feisty ways, alert eyes and happy tail! Thanks to her pet guardian, she is enjoying warm comfy bedding in the sunlight and living it up with plenty of toys and treats and soft blankets.
