Story
Saturn is truly the Queen of Hearts at our shelter, and we are totally devoted to her. Why we love Saturn - this quote from one of our dedicated volunteers says it best: "Saturn loves all of her friends so deeply that I feel humbled by the capacity of her heart." **We are so grateful to our friends at the Ryan Animal Rescue Foundation who are sponsoring FREE training for six weeks through GoodPup for Saturn and her new family!** Saturn is five years old and weighs 52 pounds. Her black and white coat is beautifully marked. She has a warmth and equanimity that make her a sought after companion. Saturn is an absolute joy to be around and we all savor her company. Saturn has such a zest for life! She will roll around on her back and kick up her legs, truly living in the moment with so much joy. She also loves belly rubs. Saturn trots companionably at your side on daily walks and enjoys exploring the shelter grounds. She also likes to be in the fenced yard and her favorite thing is playing fetch. She will leap high into the air to catch a toy you toss her way and is so agile, athletic and graceful! Saturn likes to go to the toy box and select the ones she wants to play with! Saturn has also enjoyed outings with some of our volunteers and is a great representative for our shelter! She has also had several sleepovers and been a cherished guest. Saturn is a bright dog who has already mastered the sit, give paw, come and stay commands, and is working on down. She has a serenity of spirit that makes her a joy to be around. Saturn is the perfect dog to be at your side during the day and curl up at your feet at night! Saturn spent some out of the shelter time in the home with one of our dedicated volunteers and here is what Betty Ann says about her: "She is a lover! Saturn is super affectionate and gives lots of hugs and kisses. She is easy on the leash and loves long walks on the trail. Balls are her favorite toy. She'll pounce on them and bring them back to you. She's not a picky eater and loves all kinds of treats - and will sit for them. Saturn is super soft and barely sheds. She thinks she's a lap dog. Saturn would benefit from a fenced in yard where she can run. Its been a pleasure to have her in our home. She has brought us so much joy! Saturn will be a loyal friend to whomever chooses her and gives her the life she deserves." Two of our devoted volunteers have frequently hosted Saturn at their house when the shelter is closed and Sara reports: "Saturn is a bouncy dog, playful and joyful and happy in your company. She also loves playing quietly at your feet enjoying her chewy toys. She is always up for a walk or playtime in the yard, but is easy and content when inside with her people. She loves people she knows and loves affection. She is eager to learn how to be a good dog and she needs some guidance with that because she has lived at Animal Control half of her young life. She wants a person who will be kind and patient but firm with her while she learns. She needs to be an only pet in the a calm house. Saturn is wonderful to have around the house. She is sweet and good natured and very good company. Saturn is loved by everyone at Animal Control and she will be the best dog ever if you put in the time and love she deserves." She may only be adopted by someone experienced with a dog who is protective of her people around strangers. She must be put in another room securely when strangers enter the house and room. And Saturn must be properly introduced or remain in another room. She needs a patient, experienced owner who can work with her, provide structure, and help her feel secure. A household without small children and lots of activity would be the best environment for Saturn. It would be helpful if someone will be home with her most of the time.

"Opening up your life to a dog who needs a home is one of the most fulfilling things you can do." The family who gives Patrick a home will be so blessed with his company! Why we love him: Patrick shows us how to enjoy each day and make it a memorable one! Patrick is so very handsome. His tricolor coat shimmers in shades of black, silver, and white. His happy personality and wise and merry brown eyes truly set him apart. Patrick is three years old and weighs 51 pounds. He is such a regal, magnificent presence! Patrick is truly a joyful dog who lives in the moment and savors each and every day. He has a heart full of love he gratefully shares, and we love spending time with him! Patrick quickly became a favorite among the staff and volunteers. He is so sweet and always ready to shower everyone with affection. His happy-go-lucky, good natured personality makes him a sought after companion. Patrick’s favorite thing is being present for his human. Whenever someone stands still for long enough, he will sidle up and plop himself down, his warm body a comforting weight. It is his way of saying, “I’m here, and I love you.” And then there are his special kisses that leave no doubt about his affection. He even enjoys being a lap dog and is a favorite cuddle buddy! Patrick loves to go on daily walks, trotting along with his tail wagging. He is so curious, attentive and eager to please. The fresh air and the thrill of the trail brings out the best in him, showcasing his intelligence and boundless energy. Patrick will be an awesome hiking and running buddy, too. He also looks forward to outings in the fenced yard, where he bounds about in total joy and is so agile and athletic. Patrick enjoys playing with toys, too. One of Patrick’s favorite pastimes is rolling on the grass. He will wriggle with delight, enjoying the cool earth and basking in the simple pleasure of it all. Patrick charms everyone with his playful spirit! He has had the best time in play groups with his fellow shelter companions. If you have another dog, we do require a meet and greet to ensure compatibility. Patrick is an intelligent dog who wants to please and should master any commands you want to teach him. Patrick is ready for a home where he will be a cherished companion and can share all the love he has in his wonderful heart! This unique and special dog will be an amazing companion!

"Dogs bring special gifts to those who live with them." This makes us think of our dear Meech, who will be such a fun and devoted family companion! Why we love him: Meech has such an exuberant personality and is one of the first dogs we take out every day. He is such wonderful friend! This great young dog is truly the resident hunk of our kennels! Meech is one year old and weighs 60 pounds. His shiny black coat has snow white markings on his chest and his warm brown eyes reflect a joy for life. Meech is so handsome! He is an active companion on daily walks and will go for as long as you want. Meech would be an enthusiastic hiking or running buddy, too. He loves to roll on the ground, kick up his legs, and have a belly rub after he is done. We enjoy seeing him have such a great time! Meech looks forward to play time in the fenced yard, where he bounds about joyfully and has such fun. He is so athletic and agile! He especially enjoys playing with the toys and is always ready for a game of fetch. One of his favorite things is splashing around in the doggy pool during the warm months. Meech has had a blast in play groups with his fellow shelter companions and is an absolute star! If you have another dog, we do require a meet and greet to ensure compatibility. Meech has such a friendly, good natured personality and is a wonderful cuddle buddy! He loves to crawl on your lap to be petted and enjoy the day with you! We enjoy his company so much! Meech truly has a heart full of love he gladly shares! One of our dedicated volunteers says: "Meech is the first dog I take out at the shelter! I truly enjoy his happy go lucky, effervescent demeanor. Meech is one of the smartest, most loving and fun dogs I have ever met. Every day is a true adventure for him! He is the best lap dog, too!" Another volunteer took Meech on an outing at a local park and she reports: "The sweetest moment ever was as I was driving and Meech stood and put his head over my shoulder to rest his head against my chest! It was the closest thing to a doggie hug I have ever experienced and it totally melted me! We also spent portions of the drive “cheek to cheek” so he could see the road as I drove and stay close. I have never had a pup do this and it was such a sweet gesture." Meech also loved his hike in the woods and relaxing on a swing. Meech attended an offsite event and was the best representative for our shelter! Meech is very bright and will already sit, offer you his paw to shake and roll over. Smart, handsome, and so much fun - Meech is all of this and much more! Meech will be such an amazing companion and the best buddy a family could want! He is much loved by our staff and volunteers! Lucky Meech is currently spending some time at the home of one of our dedicated volunteers. Patrick reports he is settling in well, sleeps in the crate al night and is such wonderful company! We are so grateful to Carla Miles for her beautiful photos of our dogs and cats! E-mail ccacangels@yahoo.com for more information! Please come visit! We are open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Story
Ladies and gentlemen, gather ‘round to witness the spectacular Carnival Pups! You won’t believe your eyes—these two magical siblings are sure to thrill and delight! Turkey Leg (6 months, 38 lbs) always knew he wanted to be a chef but worried that his lack of professional training might hold him back. Lucky for him (and all of us), a chance encounter and a paw lickin’ good spice blend has made him a Food Network star—try his BBQ if it doesn’t sell out first! Kettle Corn (6 months, 38.5 lbs) is the carnival’s fireworks technician. He likes to make things POP, POP, POP! When he’s not painting the sky red, white, and blue, you can find him operating the tilt-a-whirl. Both of our Carnival Pups have unique webbed feet. The puppies are currently being fostered, and we will coordinate a meet and greet if you are interested in our delightful duo! E-mail ccacangels@yahoo.com for more information! Please come visit! We are open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
