🎉 Happy Tails for Moo—Forever Starts Now! 🐾
After 215 days with us, our beloved Moo has found his forever home. 💛
Moo came to us as a stray—nervous, unsure, and not quite ready to trust. But with time, patience, and so much love, he slowly began to let down his guard and show us the sweet, silly, toy-loving pup underneath. His zoomies were legendary, his snuggles rare but cherished, and his quiet presence left a mark on every heart he touched.
During his stay, Moo faced a few bumps in the road. He had to undergo surgery to have part of his tail removed due to happy tail syndrome—a condition caused by wagging so hard it caused repeated injuries. While he patiently healed, he battled through a few other health issues along the way—but just like everything else in life, Moo faced it all with quiet strength and resilience.
It’s no secret—Moo was a staff favorite. We all fell in love with him, and while we will miss him dearly, our hearts are full knowing he’s headed to a home where he’ll be loved, understood, and cherished just as much as he was here.
To Moo’s new family: thank you for loving him the way we do. 💛 And to everyone who rooted for him, shared his story, or stopped to love on him during his time here—thank you. You helped Moo believe that people could be kind.
Happy forever, Moo. You were worth every single day of the wait. 💫🐶
Mischief and Miracles: Caesar’s Adoption Tale
After 233 days, Caesar has found his forever home! 🐾❤️
When Caesar first arrived as a stray, he didn’t trust humans and wanted nothing to do with us. He was nervous, untrusting, and kept his distance. But over time, this spirited boy began to show his true colors. Over the last few months, Caesar blossomed into a happy, friendly, and playful cat. He even became a bit of a star, attending cat yoga sessions and charming everyone with his antics.
Caesar was also quite the jokester. He loved to bother the staff while they worked, swatting at their legs, zooming around the shelter, and occasionally knocking things over just for fun. Despite his mischievous side, his personality made him impossible not to love.
Known as the "ladies’ man" of the shelter, Caesar got along well with kittens and female cats but liked to remind the male cats who was boss. He adored exploring, playing with toys, and getting attention on his own terms.
While we’ll miss his spirited presence and playful mischief, we’re overjoyed to announce that Caesar has been adopted! His journey from a scared stray to a confident, loving companion is a beautiful reminder of the power of patience and love. Cheers to Caesar and his new forever family! 💕
Lyric’s New Beginning: From Shelter Struggles to a Forever Home! 🏡🐾
We are thrilled to announce that Lyric, our 4-year-old Shepherd/Husky mix with a big personality, has found his forever home! 🏡✨
Lyric came to us with some challenges, including recurring ear infections caused by narrow ear canals and severe skin irritation, which required treatment. With time, care, and patience, he made a full recovery. While in the shelter, the stress of kennel life caused some behavioral challenges, but we weren’t about to give up on him.
Thanks to the dedication of our staff and the incredible support of Christine, a trainer who has worked wonders with some of our dogs, Lyric underwent weeks of training to build confidence, learn new skills, and cope with his stress. He made remarkable progress and was ready to thrive in a home that could provide him with structure, understanding, and lots of love.
Now, Lyric has found his perfect match—a family committed to continuing his training and giving him the life he deserves. We’re so proud of how far he’s come and can’t wait to see him shine in his new home. 🐾
