My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You know that scene in Lilo and Stitch, when the animal shelter employee isn`t entirely sure if Stitch is an alien or a dog, but since he`s already there, they just sorta let him go home with a little girl? That`s what we`re doing here with Xan.

Xan is a little alien dog who has come from the very furthest corners of the universe to spread his unconditional love, endearing personality, and super duper cute squish face with the people of planet earth.

Don`t be thrown by Xan`s pink skin and silly wrinkles. We think it just adds to his charm (although we do hope it clears up soon!) Xan is on a special diet and we have seen much improvement since his arrival! He will need to stay on a special diet after his adoption to keep his skin from getting worse again, but Xan doesn`t mind!! We just tell him it`s special extra yummy food for only the goodest of boys, and he seems to think it`s the best thing in the whole wide world.

Xan is spunky, outgoing, lovable, and so so sweet. This extraterrestrial babe is the talk of the town and is always a staff and volunteer favorite.

Come adopt Xan before he gets zapped back up to the mothership!
