My story

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

Cortez's story is one of incredible transformation. When he first arrived as a cripplingly timid 6-month-old shepherd mix, we were concerned for his future. We placed him in a loving foster home with his siblings to help him decompress and gain confidence. As time went on, his littermates all found homes, and Cortez returned to the shelter. We weren't sure this was the right move for him but Cortez surprised us all-he has blossomed into a social, loving, and playful pup! Every day, he grows more handsome and confident. Now, Cortez is ready to steal the heart of his forever family. Are you ready for him?

Additional adoption info

The Lander Pet Connection cannot guarantee the breed, composition or ages of our animals as we usually have very little history prior to them entering the rescue.

Our intention is to ensure long lasting, committed and loving homes for all animals at LPC. If we feel that an animal and a potential owner are not a good fit, we reserve the right to deny an adoption.

More about this shelter

The Lander Pet Connection is dedicated to saving the lives of homeless Lander-area animals. The LPC is compassion and kindness in action. We work every day to save the lives of starving, injured and abandoned animals and then find them loving homes. We provide resources and education to loving pet guardians to better support the human-animal bond in our wonderful community. We are helping people with pets and pets without people.

We are a humble, devoted and active group that helps animals in Lander and Fremont County Wyoming. The LPC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal shelter and rescue. We serve as a refuge for lost and found dogs in cooperation with the city of Lander, in addition to operating independently to save lives.

Founded in 1996 by Syd Miller, the Lander Pet Connection is a companion animal rescue and adoption nonprofit based in Lander, Wyoming. Originally called the “Dare to Care Animal League,” the organization later registered at the “Lander Pet Connection.” Syd Miller helped save hundreds of animals in the area.
