UPDATE: This beauty deserves a forever home after being dumped at the shelter. Please promise to rescue her today.

“So what is the deal where moms and dads don’t want us any more? You see, several of us came in together, and it is tough for us to go from home to wondering where home will be.

“I am Abbey and I am a beautiful female ladybug who just needs to have a promise for tomorrow and a lovely to call my very own. Are you that one?”

She came into the shelter on July 8, and she is available for adoption now.

I’m Casterly. If you like to watch “Game of Thrones,” you’ll recognize my name.

I am only a year old, and one of the volunteers was asked, “Is this dog really this mellow, or is he just trying to get adopted?” Haha! I am really that mellow!

I’m a Yellow Labrador mix, and I just became available. I am very smart and calm, good with children and other animals. The only thing I seem to be interested in with cats is their food. LOL. Yep, I’m a chow hound, all right!

P.S. I’m sponsored for 1/2 of the fees, because one of the volunteers wants to make sure I get a GREAT new home! [Read more…]
