We just had so much fun at the first annual Pet Parade hosted by Bristol Recreation Department we had such a great turnout! We are so grateful to be a part of this with Homeward Bound in Bristol Animal Hospital to be able to judge all these adorable costumes and meet all these wonderful dogs! We hope this will become an annual thing and that it will only grow with time but we couldn't be more excited about such an amazing turnout being the first time! thank you everybody who joined us, what a great time!!

Please share! Help us find a home for this sweet pittie girl!

This adorable girl (roughly 3/4 years old) was found stray in the middle of the highway and rescued by some good people, when she wasn't claimed after the 3 day hold at the kennel they took in her to try to give her a home.

They have done everything to get her healthy, spayed, and vaccinated etc.

She was good with their dog most of the time but on a couple of occasions became aggressive over treats and toys so they have been keeping them separated now as they don't want their dog to get hurt.

She most likely had been used for breeding in a druggy home and then abandoned, so it's no wonder she needs some work. (vet thinks possibly 4 times and shes only about 4 yrs old)

She needs a person or family who can give her the time and attention she needs to thrive. She simply doesn't know how to be a happy dog, she was never given the chance to learn all the good stuff

In the right environment she will thrive. She is a smart, adorable, loyal, sweet and affectionate girl who just needs a chance! ❤️

Tink (Gold/Tan color, Amber eyes, 3yrs old, spayed female, 62lbs) and Cassidy (Grey/Tan Brindle, 2 yrs old, spayed female, 32 lbs) have arrived and are both the sweetest girls. They both are listening very well from the start, and learning the routine and doggy door and everything quickly.

Tink is absolutely beautiful, her coat is so pretty and soft and her eyes are the most amazing Amber color. Tink would love a buddy to play with or a family to play with toys and go for walks/hikes. She is so happy and funny when she's playful, she likes to grab a toy, toss it around, galloping around and catching it. I'm trying to get a video of it. She's very submissive and playful with the other dogs. Sadly most of the other dogs we have right now aren't super playful, I feel bad

Cassidy is slowly coming out of her shell. She is very, very sweet and gentle. She is beautiful gray with a light tan brindle and she's definitely on the tiny side.

She is a bit timid right now likes to curl up the raised bed and chew a bone, she is loving the big marrow bones and rib bones. She just went through a full heartworm treatment so that could be part of why she's a little more reserved I don't know if she's not fully recovered she also was just spayed before she came to us so she could just be recovering plus some dogs have a harder time settling in than others and she could be overwhelmed with the other dogs she seems to get a little bit shy when it comes to loud noises or voices she's definitely on the tiny side and I don't know how long she was at the shelter but I have a feeling she may have been found in pretty rough condition but she is doing great, she eats really well, she enjoys gentle affection. She does shy away from affection and people at first, again she may have been with some bad people or abandoned I dk.

Saturday will be a week we've had her so it's still early. As of right now I would say a calmer environment would be best for her but I'm sure she will come out of her shell over the next few weeks once she feels settled and safe.

These sweethearts are waiting for their forever families to find them and in the mean time foster homes would be great! Remember, we provide food, all supplies and necessities when you foster. It costs you nothing, just provide a safe temporary home and some love!
