Waggin' Wednesday!

Meet Nintendo, the sweetest boy on four paws! ? With a heart as soft as his fur, Nintendo is a cuddle champion who lives for hugs and gentle touches. Whether it’s curling up next to you or pressing his head into your hand for affection, he always wants to be close.

But don’t let his snuggly side fool you — when the zoomies hit, they hit hard! One minute he’s napping like a baby, the next he’s a furry blur of joy racing around like he just unlocked a secret level. His goofy energy and loving nature make him the perfect mix of chaos and comfort.

Nintendo is more than just a dog — he’s a huggable, zooming, tail-wagging best friend.

We are open Tuesday-Friday 1-4 pm and Saturday 9-12:30 so you can come find your new bestfriend. If you have any questions about Nintendo or anyone else we have in the shelter give us a call at 828-349-2106 or send us an email at [email protected]!

Special Spotlight!

We have a sweet bonded pair of cats looking for a home together! We tried separating them, but they were so sad and spent their days hiding in their kennels. Once reunited, they instantly perked up—cuddly, playful, and full of love again. They truly bring out the best in each other, so we’d love to see them adopted as a pair. Their adoption fee is just $20 for both, and they’re ready to fill your home with twice the love!
