Dogs of the Month


TUCKER!

TUCKER is a male Beagle mix who is around 1 year of age. Tucker was found in downtown Louisa at the Post Office trying to get inside to escape a storm. Tucker is small in size, weighing 15-20 lbs. He is a very sweet dog and gets along well with other dogs. He is also a quiet dog, rarely barking. He also has the most pleading brown eyes that beg you to take him home! Tucker would be good as a family pet and a even better for an older person or couple. Won't you give him a chance?



SHASTA!!


SHASTA is a female Boxer/Beagle mix who is 1 year of age. Shasta came to the shelter as a stray. Though timid at the shelter, Shasta does well around people and other dogs away from the shelter environment. Shasta participated in the recent Humane Society Walk for the Animals and she did really well interacting with everyone there. And she was fabulous on a leash. Shasta is slightly larger than a medium size Beagle but not nearly as large as a Boxer. She has a soft reddish fawn coat that is Boxer length and is really adorable. For more information on these special companions, see their individual pages on this website.

Cats of the month


TORY!!

TORY is a 1 year old female Tortoiseshell currently calling the shelter home. Tory came to the shelter as a stray when she was just a small kitten and has grown up in the shelter. Tory has a gorgeous long coat and is very sweet and affectionate. She would make a wonderful addition to any household and will provide many years of love and companionship! Won't you come and meet her?


PATCHES!
Patches is a female black/orange Tortoiseshell cat estimated at 1year of age. Patches was found in the downtown area of Louisa. She has been hanging out with her best friend Thomas, also shown on this site. For more info on Patches and Thomas, read their individual listings on this site. If you have been looking for a new feline friend, please check out the cats and kittens at the shelter and give a shelter cat a chance for a loving home!

Funding And Volunteers Needed!!! ASAP!!!

We are in terrible need of funding and volunteers for the running of the shelter. We are always over budget and it is hard to continue at this rate. If the shelter would ever close, there would be NO SHELTER for these animals in the near future. These animals will be taken to another shelter with a much lower adoption rate. If you can help us in any way, please contact the shelter before 3PM Mon-Fri at (606) 673-4509 or after hours/weekends, call Kim at 606-638-0512 or Email: potterperry41230@yahoo.com.


Foster Homes NEEDED!!!

We are in DESPERATE need of foster homes for both dogs and cats. There is a great need for foster homes for adopted animals awaiting transports to their new homes. All of the animals in foster care are vaccinated, spayed/neutered and dewormed. If you are willing to foster a dog, cat or even a litter of kittens or puppies, please call Kim at 606-638-0512 or Email: potterperry41230@yahoo.com for more details.
