I've been trying to think of all of the adjectives that come to mind when talking about this pretty girl to others. I can say she is strong. A strong desire to love and be loved, a strong will to please her humans, and clearly a strong will to survive since her 'owners' never came forward to claim her.
I could say crazy. She's crazy about kiddos, crazy about playing in the yard with her new friend Bruno, and crazy about getting belly rubs that she'll give you no warning that's she's going to flop on your feel and roll over.
I could say she's large. She definitely wants to live her life in the largest way possible, she has a great, big, large smile that you can't help but smile back at, a large heart that she'll love you with forever, and you'll fall in love with just as quickly.
Aside from her fascination with bunnies and squirrels, I genuinely cannot say Aspen has any less than desirable traits. I also cannot imagine why anyone would want to give her up, much less just leave her somewhere. This girl had her intake exam today, which means she had blood drawn for heartworm testing, and 3 vaccinations. Because she's a good sized pup, the assistant was a little hesitant when they loosened up their grip and Aspen jumped forward, turned around and was ready to give kisses and forgive the ouchie pokes they'd given her. This girl made sure to tell all of the vets, techs, admin, and others thank you, bye and have a great day on her way out.
You really can't find a better dog. Plus those ears...
Aspen has one more set of boosters to get, which will be about a month from now, but she can be fostered in the meantime! If you'd like to learn more about Aspen, please message us here, or visit her page on petfinder! If I could take her, she'd be in my home already.

Alright, we'll admit it, we've been holding out on you guys, but it was for a good reason! You might have seen our funny little Bruno walking around in this area around post, and until this afternoon, we couldn't put him into foster or up for adoption quite yet. Bruno unfortunately had no vet history since 2023, so we wanted to make sure we were not sending out a pup that had any kind of health issues to foster or adopt! We always want to make sure when we send a pet into a home, whether it be foster, foster to adopt, or just adopt that they are 100% healthy, neutered/spayed, microchipped and up to date on shots.

Bruno here has a pretty sensitive stomach, which we've been working on with a pretty restricted diet, and it's getting better, but We're having the vet check him out and give us the ok to start the process of getting him ready for adoption!

This Pup is playful, sweet, and when he gets the zoomies, it can be the funniest thing on earth to watch. From what we've been told, he's another Bassett hound/Great Dane mixes like Tokyo was. We're never 100% sure on breeds, but his personality is great. He's very much food motivated! He'd be one to motivate you to keep your kitchen counters spotless, or he will find the food and steal it. We've caught him climbing onto a chair to open the food bin lol. He loves to be loved on, we don't doubt he had lack of that in his previous home. He is a jumper, we are definitely working with him on that, it's just that he's so excited to see you, he wants to get you closer right now! He's amazing at hide and seek as you can see in one of the photos! We're also working on leash manners, but like everything, it takes a little bit of time and patience. I'm truly happy to say that where he was not quite house trained previously, he has had a clean kennel for a good amount of time since arriving here! He really is a good boy, and right now until all of his vetting and neuter is complete, he can only be fostered, but we are open to foster to adopt as well.
Message us if you'd like to know more about Bruno!

We're so thankful for our Good Samaritans! They help us get pets off of the streets of the Fort, and hopefully back into their owner's hands! Sometimes they don't have a home, and are truly stray, so we get them vetted and ready to go home to a forever family!

Today we had another Good Samaritan pet brought in, so here we are with, Do you know this pet? If you recognize them, or know the owner, please have them contact us here on FB messenger. If they have a family, our goal is to reunite the pet with the owners.
As always, proof of ownership is required.

It's been a bit of time since we've had pets in the shelter or in foster. Today we get to spotlight Rocky!
Rocky came to us from less than desirable conditions. He needed a little bit of weight put on him, some exercise to put some muscle back on his body, and most of all, people to love him and show them that there is more to life than sitting in a kennel. While his background was not the best, the foster he's been staying with has definitely showed him all of those things. He gets all the food he needs to stay healthy, LOTS of kiddos to play with, as well as a furry friend or two. He has lots of energy and loves to play, but snuggling is his absolute favorite thing to do. Whether it's with an adult, or a kiddo, Rocky feels like he is a lap dog.
The foster gave him the nickname Rocco because of his super playful demeanor , and oh so charming personality! He will steal your heart. We've not been able to find any issues with him at all! He's neither toy or food reactive, plays well with other dogs, tolerates and respects the authority of cats, and adores kids. His leash skills are being worked on, but for a puppy like him, that will be an easy task with a little patience and persistence. Rocky will be 1 year old on the 2nd of July! Let's see if we can make his birthday wish of having a forever family of his own come true!

Do you know this sweet kitty? They were brought in by a Good Samaritan this morning, and is now safe, fed, and comfy here at the shelter. If you recognize them, or are the owner, Please message us here on FB. As always proof of ownership is required

UPDATE: kitty has no chip, looks to be about 1 yr old, grayish tabby. I did not take pics for it would be pretty upsetting. Kittyis moved off of the road and into grass by guard rail.

*** Good Sam Courtesy post, pet is not at the shelter***

"There is a small deceased animal in the Northbound gutter of Grant Ave, near the Bullard Ave intersection. I only caught a glimpse but it appears to be a cat, gray with a white underbelly."

If you think this might be your pet, or know of the owner, please let them know so they might have closure. We are very sorry for the loss of your pet.
