Happy Dog, Happy Life

Discover the fascinating world of canine enrichment where behavior, play, and purpose come together to create a happier, healthier dog.

Elizabeth shares how enrichment is more than just fun; it’s a powerful tool that supports better behavior and enhances training efforts.

This program explores how dogs naturally interact with their environment, what truly brings them joy, and how we can seamlessly integrate those experiences into our daily routines.

❤ ADOPTABLE PUPPY - PETER ❤

Meet the adorable Peter! Peter is just a young guy at the ripe age of 5 months old. He's very young and is very eager to learn, so Peter will need an owner dedicated to his training. Peter is a very lovey boy who just wants to spend his days cuddling and playing. Peter hasn't been around many cats, but he's young enough to properly learn how to respect any felines that may come his way. Due to his love of play, Peter loves any fellow canines that can match his youthful energy. Peter would make the perfect family dog!
If Peter sounds like the boy for you, come by CASA to meet him!

Dumbo the Elephant & Pinocchio.

At only one year young these two boys are desperately searching for a forever family to call their own. They came from a situation where there were many dogs living outdoors with minimal socialization and human contact. Since they grew up in these conditions, learning how to 'dog' has been difficult. Upon arriving to CASA, they were dirty, scared, and very unsure of themselves and the world around them. They have come to love and trust our staff and volunteers but have had a rough time integrating into adoptive homes. Moving into a new home with a stranger is scary for them and they become anxious and uncertain. They will need owners who are understanding, patient and dedicated to helping them through the transition.

Both these boys are sweet and loving. They will make great companions. The efforts put into them will result in a life-long loyal friend. Dumbo and Pinocchio each have their own individual needs and challenges. Please read their bios linked below to learn more.

Adopt this sweetie pie!!!

❤ ADOPTABLE - MOMO ❤

Meet the dashing Momo! This 5-year-old Staffordshire terrier mix is on a mission to find his forever family. A charming, affectionate fellow, Momo adores people and thrives on attention. He's been around kids and would be a great match for dog-savvy youngsters. Though Momo's a total cuddle bug with people, he's got a selective taste in canine buddies, preferring pals who match his size or are bigger. Momo's not exactly a member of the cat fan club and would rather skip the whole roommate situation with them! Fear not, for Momo is a well-trained gentleman, mastering commands like sit, stay, and lie down, and he’s a leash-walking pro! If Momo sounds like your perfect match, swing by for a meet-and-greet!

🖤 JUST 12 DAYS AWAY 🖤

FREE MICROCHIP CLINIC

Microchips provide identification that can last a lifetime. Microchipped pets are reunited with their owners faster and can often avoid the shelter all together. Microchips are especially helpful for cats since collars and tags are not always an option. CASA will implant and register your pet's microchip for free. The process is quick and does not require any sedation. Our trained staff will make the process as easy as possible for owners and pets! Cats and Dogs are welcome. All pets must be secured on a leash or in a carrier, greater than 8 weeks old, weigh more than 2 pounds, and be easily handled. We are happily overwhelmed by the generosity of the community sponsors who are making this FREE event possible. Please join us in thanking Camano Canine Resort and Shipwreck Coffee! Be sure to spread the word to friends, family, or anyone you know who may have an unchipped pet at home.
