The Thursday Thirteen!

The shelters are filling up quickly - lots of adorable new furry friends to meet!  Let's jump right in!

Miami County Dogs

(if you're interested in adopting any of these dogs, please call the Miami County Animal Shelter at 937-332-6919!)

First up is Little Bit!  She's a 1-year-old Yorkie mix who was found running as a stray & will be available for adoption on 9/17/11! 

Meet Olivia!  She's a 1-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer, and this poor sweetheart has been adopted from the MCAS and returned TWICE because she's "too much to handle."  The shelter staff says that her energy is typical of her breed, but that spaying will help calm her down.  She just needs the right owner!

Adorable puppy alert!  These three sweethearts are 8-week-old Lab/Shepherd mixes!  The two black puppies are girls and the tan puppy is a boy.  They are playful, fiesty, and loveable!

Meet Patches, Oogie, and Tigger!  These three lovely ladies were brought in to the shelter by their owner, who had used them for breeding but could "no longer care for them."  Unfortunately there are a lot of people out there who run "puppy mills" and just ditch the breeding females after they've had a certain number of litters - the dogs are no longer any use to the breeder and just get tossed to the side like garbage.  That's what happened to these three sweethearts - now they need homes that will let them just relax and be dogs!

Next up is Indie!  He's a 1-year-old Lab mix who was found as a stray and will be available for adoption on 9/16/11.  He is a friendly and energetic boy!

This adorable little sweetheart is Speedy!  He's a Chihuahua & there's no more information on his profile, but the shelter would be happy to answer any questions about him if you call!

Meet Jose!  He's a Pekingese mix who was found as a stray and will be available for adoption on 9/17/11.  He's already neutered and is about 3 years old.  He's a little shy initially but warms up pretty quickly.  He's a friendly little guy!

Shelby County Dogs

(if you're interested in adopting any of these dogs, please call the Shelby  County Animal Shelter at 937-498-7201!)

Meet Rusty!  He's a Pomeranian mix who is unneutered and came to the shelter as a stray.  He appears to get along with other dogs and has a sweet temperment!



Last but not least, meet Jack!  He's a Terrier mix who was found running loose.  He's wearing a tag but the shelter hasn't been able to track down his owner.  If Jack's owner hasn't come forward in two weeks, Jack will be available for adoption!  He's a very sweet dog!
